Tip: Secure the metal shapes to paper by first creating a hole in the paper using a pick tool. Apply adhesive to what will be the underside of the metal shape. Insert the tip ends of the shape into the holes and bend flat on the back of the paper.

Instructions:

1. Trace a 7¾” frame onto the back of the pink dot paper and cut out. Mat with white cardstock, leaving 1/16” border. Glue to the blue floral border paper, ¾” from the top of the page.
2. Mat the 5”x7” photo with lime green cardstock, leaving a 1/8” border. Glue 2/3 of the photo to overlap the scalloped frame. Use the gold wire to create a crown shape by following the manufacturer directions for using the Wind It tool. Use the pick tool to make holes through the photo and paper layers. Place glue stick on what will be the back of the crown and insert the wire tips on each side of the crown through the holes poked in the photo. Bend the tips to lay flat on the back of the page. Place Blue Jewel Dazzles™ at the center of each crown loop.
3. Cut a Lily Base from orange paper ad 3-D Dahlia from pink dot paper. Mat each with white cardstock and assemble according to the template instructions. Glue the Lily base to the page bottom right corner. Use foam tape to adhere the pink Dahlia flower to the center of the base. Trace small circle from the template and foam tape to the center of the flower. Cut small flower shapes from orange and pink dot papers and mat each with white cardstock. Punch yellow circles using the ¼” hole punch and glue to the flower centers. Foam tape the flowers among the large 3-D flower and those on the border.
4. Create 4 swirl shapes and 2 more elaborate loopy/swirl shapes from the same crown pattern plate. Apply glue stick to the back of each piece and after making holes with the pick tool, insert the tip ends and bend flat on the back of the page. Write on thin white strips and cut into arrow shapes with a point on one end and inverted “v” on the other. Foam tape to the right of the photo and bottom.
