Instructions:
 

1.                Sort through your paper scraps to find interesting remnants of paper.

2.                Coat the paper scraps with Yes! Glue and apply them randomly on the cardstock until the sheet is completely covered.  Overlap and tear the paper to create an interesting look.

3.                Apply additional Yes! Glue as needed so that the paper scraps lay flat.

4.                Allow ample time for the paper to dry.

5.                Stamp several images with clear embossing ink and emboss with gold detail powder.

6.                Use a paper trimmer to cut the covered cardstock into 1” squares.

7.                Use Yes! Glue to assemble the 1” squares on the picture frame.  Some of the 1” squares will need to be cut in order to fit on the picture frame.

8.                Stamp the flower images on separate cardstock with Jet Black StazOn Ink.

9.                Color the images with watercolor crayons and a blender pen.

10.           Stamp the word “memories” on a piece of cardstock with Burnished Iron chalk ink.

11.           Spray a small amount of walnut ink on a piece of wax paper.

12.           Touch the tip of the blender pen on the pool of walnut ink and outline the word “memories.”

13.           Assemble the stamped images on coordinating cardstock and then affix to the picture frame with Yes! Glue.

14.           Spray walnut ink over the entire piece and allow to dry.
