| Instructions: |
|
Step 1 |
Use Together Scroll #12322 as the background for the layout. Ink all edges of the paper with black stamp ink by pressing a makeup sponge against the ink pad and then swiping or scraping the sponge along the edges of the paper. |
|
Step 2 |
Cut a 1 5/8" strip from the scroll area of Together Natural #12320. Cut a notch in the shape of a "V" in one end of the strip. Ink all edges of the strip with black ink. Crumple the strip gently to add dimension. Glue strip down approximately 1 1/4" from the left edge of the sheet. Attach two brads to the top of the strip about 1/2" down from the top and about 3/4" apart. |
|
Step 3 |
Ink edges of a sepia-toned photo with black ink. Photo pictured is 5 1/4" X 7 3/4". |
|
Step 4 |
Using the Curly Corners Clear Stamps #90108 and black ink, stamp the top-left and bottom-right corners as shown slightly overlapping onto the photo. Partially ink the stamps to create the curls coming from the flower on the bottom-left corner of the photo and the bottom-right edge of the layout. |
|
Step 5 |
Make the flowers using the pattern and the sheet of Painted White #12116. Make the large flower for the bottom-left corner of the photo by cutting one piece of patterns A, B, and C. Make the Medium flower for the top-right corner of the photo by cutting one piece of patterns C, D, and E. Make the small flower for the top-right corner of the photo by cutting one piece of patterns C and F. Ink all edges of the flower pieces with black ink. Next, curl each petal of the flower pieces by gently pulling the petal between your thumb and the edge of a plastic ruler, sort of like you would do to curling ribbon. Assemble the flowers and attack around the photo as shown with the remaining three brads. |
|
Step 6 |
Using a pencil, lightly sketch a slightly wavy line along the top of the layout about 3/4" down from the edge of the paper. Lightly sketch another wavy line along the bottom approximately 2" up from the bottom edge. Use a ruler to make small tick marks along the wavy lines about 1 cm apart. These are where you will be placing the White Jewel Droplets #78101. Carefully erase the pencil line between the tick marks. |
|
Step 7 |
Before applying the White Jewel Droplets along the tick marks, use the Chocolate Dimensional Foam Alphabet Stickers #78233 to spell the word LOVE. Apply the White Jewel Droplets over the tick marks using your best judgment to space them between the Foam Alphabet Stickers. |
|
Step 8 |
Use the black Tiny Numbers Cardstock Stickers #93041 to put the year above the top-left corner of the photo nesting them in the curls of the stamped image. |
|
Step 9 |
Use the Etched Natural Letters Cardstock Stickers #93023 to spell out the word REAL overlapping the bottom edge of the photo as shown. Your layout is now done! |
