Instructions

1. Cut varied lengths of the silk ribbon and adhere across the page as desired. Refer to picture for placement.

2. Measure and cut a border sheet for each of the photographs from the periwinkle cardstock, 1/8” larger than the actual photo size. Center and glue the photographs to the border sheets.

3. For the smallest photo, measure a second border sheet in yellow card stock ¼” larger than the original picture. Repeat the process for the other two photos using lavender (medium) and pink (large) cardstock. Glue the additional border sheets to the photographs.

4. Adhere the largest photograph to the bottom right corner of the page.

5. Glue the smallest photo to the top right side of the page.

6. Glue the medium photo to the left side. This photo should overlap the large one at the corner.

7. Apply alphabet stickers to a different color of cardstock for each child’s name. 8. Cut each of the letters out so that there is a small border around the sticker, and glue them to the page.

9. Punch two circles from the periwinkle cardstock, and two from the green striped page. Glue the periwinkle circles to the page.

10. Adhere the cupcakes to the green striped circles and place a Pop Dot on the back of each circle. Stick the cupcake circles over the periwinkle circles at an angle to create a ‘shadow’.

11. Using the red paper and the yellow cardstock, punch three spirals in each color.

12. For the ‘confetti’, punch a series of tiny squares from the yellow and periwinkle cardstock and glue them randomly to the page.

13. Push the metal brads through various areas of the ribbon.

14. Glue the spirals to the page and go over them with the Papier Glass Finish. Let dry completely.
