1. Glue a 1"-wide strip of red/green floral paper across the portfolio's top flap. Cover front of the bottom flap with red/green floral paper, stopping 3/4" from the bottom edge. Ink the edges of the portfolio.
2. Use the paper stump and mold to emboss a scroll pattern onto a sheet of metal. Cut around the edges and punch a hole in the center. Sand the top of a red medallion brad and add it to the hole, then Zot™ the embossed metal centered on the strip that runs across the portfolio's top flap.
3. Write “favorite photos” on tracing paper and flip it over so it reads backwards. Place it on top of a 1/2"-wide strip of metal with the metal's silver side up. Trace over the phrase with the pointed end of a rotary tool to emboss it onto the metal. Punch a hole and add squiggly lines to each end of the strip. Flip over the strip so the phrase is legible and add a red mini brad to each punched hole. Zot™ the strip across the bottom of the portfolio's front flap.
4. Wrap green ribbon around the top flap of the portfolio to hold it closed, knotting the tails on the front.
