1. Use the black tone-on-tone paper as the background. Ink the edges of an 8"x7 1/2" piece of brown cardstock and mat on white cardstock.
2. Ink the edges of a 5"x7" photo, then glue the photo to the left side of the brown cardstock. Ink the edges of a white initial monogram and write the name on it in black. Attach the monogram to the top right corner of the brown cardstock with two brown brads. Journal below the monogram with a white pen. Attach the cardstock centered at the top of the page, leaving the left edge unglued.

4. Layer three silk flowers and attach them in the bottom right corner of the cardstock with a brown brad in the center.
5. Computer journal the subjects' names on white cardstock, crop and ink the edges. Mat on brown cardstock and ink the edges. Fold 1" of white ribbon in half and secure the loose ends behind the left edge of the mat. Glue the names overlapping the bottom of the photo.
