Instructions:
- Sponge the edges of

the 12”X12” vanilla cardstock. Cut a 2” strip of orange cardstock. Sponge
around edges of the vanilla and orange cardstock with the same midnight blue
ink.
- Brush orange acrylic
paint VERY LIGHTLY on the vanilla background using the 2” paint brush.
- Attach the vanilla
cardstock to the orange 12”X12” background using Hermafix tabs. Attach the
orange strip halfway down the page positioned to the right. Adhere with
hermafix tabs. Glue a strip of blue ribbon in the middle of the orange strip
using liquid glue.
- Attach a strip of
orange fiber on the top and bottom of the vanilla cardstock using liquid glue.
- Cut a piece of
midnight blue cardstock 4½” X 10½” to mat your first picture. Adhere your
picture at the top of the mat leaving a ¼” border at the top. Adhere to the
vanilla cardstock using hermafix tabs.
- Dip the sponge stamps
into acrylic paint and stamp on burlap. When this is dry, cut your images into
a square leaving a 1” border. Pull the burlap strands out along the edges to
create a fringe. Attach an orange button in the center of the blue flower
using liquid glue.
- Set the pasta machine
for about a ¼” thickness, and run a piece of the Blue Pearl clay through it to
flatten. Cut letters out with the alphabet clay letters. Bake in an oven
according to package instructions. (NOTE: Test a small piece before baking
all of your letters. I learned this the hard way!! LOL.)
- Print your journaling
on orange cardstock and cut into a tag. Slot punch the end and attach blue and
orange fiber.
- Glue your clay
letters onto the strips of fiber on the top and bottom of the page using
liquid glue. Attach your second photograph on the right side of your layout
using hermafix tabs. Glue a poetry bead on the bottom corners of each
photograph.
