What to do...

 
  1. Trim 1/2" off of the bottom and right hand edges of a sheet of Kraft Paper. Stamp the Etched Flowers image three times within the top portion using Cup O’ Joe Mid-Tone Shadow Ink. Extend the images beyond the page to add interest.
  2. Center and adhere the Kraft Paper to a sheet of Snow Layering Paper.
  3. Stamp the Zig Zag image onto a subtle patterned paper from the Konnichiwa Paper Pad using Soft Pool Shadow Ink. Trim and adhere the stamped patterned paper along the left hand edge of the Kraft Paper, and adhere additional patterned paper along the right hand edge.
  4. Stamp the sentiment above the patterned paper on the right hand side using black ink.
  5. Adhere a thin strip of striped patterned paper along the top edge of the existing patterned papers. Adhere photo, centering between the two large blocks of patterned papers.
  6. Adhere strips of patterned papers, and a scalloped border strip cut from Tide Layering Paper below the photo as shown. Wrap with a width baker’s twine.
  7. Stamp butterfly images using VersaMark and top with white embossing powder. Heat set, and adhere a small brown gemstone to the center of each.
  8. Computer generate journaling onto Kraft Paper, and adhere to layout.
  9. For a finishing touch, adhere two small brads, and colorful Art Flowers to the layout. Secure a small white button within the center of each flower using pink thread.
