Instructions

Step 1

Trim Tan Paper to create 8" x 8" Scrapbook Page.

Stamp a border down the right hand edge and along the bottom using Continuous Stamping Wheel™ and Paisley stamp.

Step 2

Cut a strip of white paper to fit across the page. Punch a border on one edge using Border Punch – Lace. Fix to page with D/S tape.

Step 3

Using ShapeCutter™, mat and Hearts Template, cut out two hearts of different sizes from blue paper. Emboss the larger heart using ShapeBoss™ and sand to expose the white core of the paper. Create a frame on the smaller heart using Everywhere Window Punch™. Ink the edge of the frame with brown ink pad and fix a piece of white paper behind. Fix seam binding ribbon around the aperture. Fix the heart down with 3D foam pads and then fix the ribbon across the scrapbook page with D/S tape.

Step 4

Create faux stitching around the edges of both hearts with Brown Fine Liner Pen. Decorate both hearts with self adhesive gems, seam binding bows and the smaller heart with foam letters. Fix the large heart to the page with D/S tape. Fix the photograph with 3D foam pads so that it fits behind the smaller heart.

Step 5

Punch XL circle from blue paper using Squeeze Punch. Ink the edge with brown ink pad. Decorate with foam ampersand, self adhesive gems and fix to page with 3D foam pads.

Step 6

Punch circles from blue and white paper using Lever Punch. Ink the edges with brown ink pad. Decorate with self adhesive gems and fix in place with glue pen.
