Instructions
1. Take the maroon ribbon and place ribbon charm on it. Adhere to page using a glue stick.
2. Take the brown cardstock and cut a large square using the 12” paper trimmer.
3. Cut a smaller square out of the mulberry paper using scissors. Adhere the mulberry paper to your brown cardstock using glue dots.
4. Place your photo on your “photo border” and adhere using your paper photo corners.
5. Journal thoughts about your photo onto your brown cardstock using your #05 pen. Cut out the year using your scissors. The journaling gives the cut-out year a great effect. Adhere the year to your page using a glue stick.
6. Using your vellum and a computer, type the title for your page and the name of the person in the photo. Cut out the title and place on your page using two brads. Cut out the name of the person and place on your page using brads in each corner.
7. Take your brown cardstock and cut a square using your 12” paper trimmer. Tear the tope and bottom of the square. Adhere to your page using a glue stick. Write a story about your photo onto vellum using your #05 pen. Attach the vellum to the top of your brown cardstock using a brad in each corner.
