Step by Step
1
Using a sheet of the white card as your base, cut a strip of the bright pink card measuring 1cm wide. Stick slightly in from the edge of the left hand side of the page.
2
Enlarge your photo to measure 14cm by 19cm. Layer onto white card measuring 14.5cm by 19.5cm and then black card measuring 15cm by 20cm.
3
Cut a strip of the bright pink card measuring 1cm by 15cm stick on the right hand side of your page. Position your photo next to this strip. Cut a 1cm by 15cm strip of the striped paper and place on the left hand side of the photo.
4
Hand cut your title using a swirly font (see top tips) and add to your page slightly overlapping your photograph.
5
Cut your chosen floral Rub-Ons from the sheet. Peel off the backing and hold in position on some white card. Use the applicator provided and gently rub all over the design. Carefully peel up the covering to check the whole design has been applied. If not reapply and continue rubbing.
6
Use the various alphabet rub ons to spell out your chosen words onto white card. Trim into rectangles and layer onto the bright pink card before adding to your page using 3D foam pads to raise up some of the words.
7
Hand draw some bracket shapes on the back of some black card. Cut out and add to your page.
