What you need

A computer with Chrome or Edge to personalize; a printer; card stock or heavy paper; scissors or a trimmer; a craft knife, ruler and cutting mat for the slits; a way to bind (book rings and a hole punch, ribbon, a 7 × 5 in album or a print shop). Gift cards not included.

How to personalise

In the offline personalizer, type the retiree's name, who the book is from and the cover lines, then one line per giver (Name | Store | Amount | Theme): each line prints one holder, in that order, and a matching row on the collection sheet. Without the personalizer, print the PDF and write on the lines.
