Instructions:
- Trim the grey cardstock to size. 30cm x 30cm. Measure 3 sections 9,5cm each and allow for 1/2cm in between, for the folds, on the width of the cardstock. Now measure 3 sections along the length of the cardstock, 1 x 6cm, 2x 12cm. Fold along all these fold lines. (See photo)
- Trim on the width folds, where you allowed for the 1/2cm in between the sections. (See photo)
- Use a white gel pen to do faux stitching along the length lines of all the folds.
- Trim the various bits of patterned paper to fit within each section, allowing for a cardstock border and adhere these to the cardstock base (See photo)
- Fussy cut the various words, blocks and arrows from the patterned papers.
- Use a black gel pen to do faux stitching around all of the patterned paper bits.
- Trim the green, grey and teal cardstock for the bottom sections of the booklet. Width should be the same as the patterned paper, but the length only 7cm. Shape the top end and adhere only on the edges, to make a folder, to insert your photo’s.
- Use Broken China and some water to splash over the bottom 1st section. Once dry, outline with a black gel pen.
- Mat your photo’s with the various cardstock, leaving a slight border.
- Stamp the various images, on the various folders and bits, as per the photo. Use Black Soot and Hickory Smoke.
- Colour the arrow chipboard with white pigment ink. Once dry, use your finger to rub over a little Walnut stain. Allow this to dry. Edge with a black gel pen.
- Adhere the various materials, buttons and chipboard pieces, photo’s etc. Add white and black gel faux stitching, as per the photo.
- Add small black gems, as required.
- Fold up the booklet. Use white pigment ink to edge on all the folds and edges.
