Everlasting Love
By Susan Cobb
Supplies:
Instructions:
- Use the pink floral paper as the background. Mat a 5"x7" photo on dark pink textured paper and trim the mat to 1/8". Run pink sheer ribbon across the photo, just below the center. Wrap the ribbon tails around the edges of the mat and tape them to the back, then glue the photo in the top right corner of the page. Tie more ribbon into a shoestring bow and use a Zot™ to attach it over the ribbon length.
- Computer journal onto pink vellum, crop to a vertical rectangle and glue over the left side of the page. Tie a knot in the center of a 5" length of ribbon and run it across the blank label cut-out. Wrap the ribbon tails around the edges of the label and tape them to the back, then glue the label overlapping the top edge of the journaling. Tie a knot in the center of a 3" ribbon length and use a Zot™ to attach the knot in the bottom left corner of the journaling.
- Mat a 2 1/2"x4" photo and a 2"x3" photo on dark pink textured paper and trim the mats to 1/8". Glue the photos at an angle and overlapping in the bottom right corner of the page and accent with a postage stamp cut-out. Glue a tag cut-out with the tab over the bottom right corner of the journaling block. Mat the “always & forever” postage stamp cut-out on pink vellum and trim the mat to 1/8". Add a mini brad to the center of the cut-out and glue it to the right of the tag. Computer journal “everlasting love” onto pink vellum, then glue to the left of the tag and add a pink mini brad to the top edge.
Cherish
By LeNae Gerig
Supplies:
Instructions:
- Glue a 3 1/2"x12" strip of purple words paper even with the left edge of the purple textured paper. Glue a 12"x1/2" strip of purple striped paper (stripes running horizontally) across the bottom of the page. Lay a 13" length of lavender grosgrain ribbon over the seam between the purple words and purple textured papers, then wrap the ribbon ends around the edges of the page and tape them to the back.
- Mat a photo on ivory cardstock, trim the mat to 1/8" and ink the edges black. Mat again on white cardstock, trimming the mat to 1/8". Tie a short length of purple woven ribbon around the right edge of a silver heart clip, then add the clip to the top of the photo. Glue the photo centered over the right side of the page.
- Ink the edges of the “marriage” ephemera and accent the word “marriage” with chalk. Mat the ephemera on tan cardstock, trim the mat to 1/16" and add a mini brad to each top corner. Glue the ephemera at the top of the purple words portion of the background.
- Ink the edges of the “faith” and “trust” ephemera and mat each on white cardstock, trimming the mats to 1/16". Add a mini brad to each top corner of the “trust” ephemera, then glue the pieces overlapping, under the “marriage” ephemera. Knot a short length of purple woven ribbon and use a Zot™ to attach the knot to the left of the “trust” ephemera.
- Ink the edges of the “passion” ephemera and accent the word “passion” and the hearts with chalk. Mat the ephemera on tan cardstock, trim the mat to 1/16" and add a mini brad to each top corner. Glue the ephemera over the purple words portion of the background, just above the striped strip.
- Ink the edges of the “cherish” ephemera and mat it on white cardstock, trimming the mat to 1/16". Fold two short lengths of purple woven ribbon in half and use mini brads to attach the folded ends over the left and right edges of the ephemera. Glue the ephemera over the striped strip, centered under the photo.
