*When printing a Cover on Cover design for the Cousin, please select A3 as the paper size in the printer settings and use A3 or 11” x 17” Ledger size paper. Ledger paper will have some outer margin cut off, but this will not affect the main section you’ll be cutting out.

*Warning for Cover on Cover printouts:
The inside of the Cover on Cover material is designed to resist ink stains, but please follow these guidelines to get the best results:

1. Please allow your print to dry completely before inserting it into your Cover on Cover.
2. Do not store your Cover on Cover in hot/humid places or in direct sunlight, as this can warp or decolor it.
3. Please avoid photographs with vinyl coating when choosing what to insert into your Cover on Cover.
