Step by Step
1
Cut a square of We R Memory Keepers Tiffany Connery paper from the small patterned side, ink with Clearsnap black ink and adhere to a sheet of Core’dinations whitewash cardstock – about a third of the way down and to the right.
2
Lay your photos on a sheet of Papermania handmade rainbow paper. Cut out a rectangle big enough to allow space below the photographs. Mat with handmade silky metallic paper. Adhere this onto the left hand side of the page as shown.
3
Cut two pieces of patterned paper – We R Memory Keepers Connery and Farrow – to match the size of your photographs ensuring that one of them is longer than the blue and pink photo mat.
4
Ink the edges of your photos and patterned paper.
5
Stick an embossed cardstock sticker to the top right hand corner of the photo mat.
6
Adhere the photos and patterned paper to the layout.
7
Add a cardstock sticker to the bottom left hand corner of the photo mat, overlapping the photos. Go around this sticker with a black pen. Do the same with a sticker on the striped paper as shown.
8
Add a layered chipboard tag to the top left of the photo mat.
9
Measure the inside of a chipboard frame. Draw the correctly sized rectangle onto white paper, add journalling, cut out and stick inside the frame. Adhere underneath the striped paper.
10
Add Doodlebug letter stickers and go round them with a black brush marker.
11
Add brads around the top left hand corner and on the bottom right hand corner of the photo mat as shown.
12
Adhere a small piece of Doodlebug fuzzy flower ribbon, ensuring that it does not go past the end of the Connery paper.
13
Make the flower with We R Memory Keepers and Papermania flowers and a button. Stick on striped paper to finish.
