1. Stamp doodle from Doodle Frames Perfectly Clear™ set randomly on an 8” square of Serenade cardstock using Hyacinth ink. Randomly stamp leaf cluster from Stitched Frames using Wisteria ink. Add round stitched flower in Creamy Brown ink. Sponge edges lightly with Dark Brown ink.
2. On a 3/4” x 8” strip of Desert Tan cardstock, stamp a “wallpaper” pattern by alternating the wide stripe from Geo Shapes Set using Wisteria ink; the narrow stripe from Geo Shapes using Ash Rose; and the doodle border from Doodle Frames using Dark Brown. Sponge all edges with Dark Brown ink. Glue strip to page 4-1/2” from the top with Zip Dry™ Paper Glue. Stamp the zig-zag stitch from Stitched Frames in Dark Brown across top of strip to “sew” it to the background.
3. Create a background on a 2-7/8” x 8” panel of Deep Brown cardstock by stamping leaf cluster and oval-petalled flower from Stitched Frames in Dark Brown ink. Sponge all edges with Dark Brown ink. Stamp the large corner of the doodle frame from Doodle Frames in Versamark ink in the lower right corner of panel (cut frame in two to make stamping easier). Rub the Versamark pad lightly and randomly over the rest of the panel. Sprinkle entire panel with Lilac Pastel embossing powder, shake off excess, and heat with an embossing heat tool. Adhere panel to lower portion of page.
4. On a 6-3/8” x 4-1/2” panel of white cardstock, create a background by stamping the oval-petalled flower from Stitched Frames in Ash Rose ink; the round-petalled flower from Stitched Frames in Creamy Brown ink; the leaf cluster from Stitched Frames in Hyacinth ink, and the doodle from Doodle Frames in Dark Brown ink. Sponge all edges with Dark Brown. Stamp double-stitched line from Stitched Frames using Dark Brown along all edges, overlapping stitches at the corners. Mount a sepia toned photo to white cardstock sponged with Dark Brown ink on edges and adhere to panel. Glue panel to page, slightly overlapping “wallpaper” strip.
5. Create tags (two sizes) with Sizzix™ die cuts in Serenade, Desert Tan, Pretty Pink, and white cardstock. Sponge all edges with Dark Brown ink. Stamp letters from Classic Bold Alphabet in Dark Brown on smaller tags and glue to a larger tag at an angle. Thread tags through ribbon, knotting as desired, and attach tags to page using Sticky Squares.
