  1. Cut a sheet of ivory patterned paper to 11 3/4”. Tear a 2”- 3/12” strip of 11 3/4” long pink patterned paper and ink the torn edge brown. Tear a similar piece of green striped paper and ink the edge. Glue the green strip paper slightly above the pink and glue to the bottom of the ivory background paper. Ink the edges brown and glue to the brown cardstock.
  2. Mat the 7”x5” photo onto brown cardstock, leaving a 1/8” wide border. Mat again with pink patterned paper, leaving a 1/4” border and ink the edges brown. Glue 1 1/2” from the top of the page. Glue a length of rickrack across the bottom of the photo. Glue a floral chipboard star with inked edges over the rickrack.
  3. Stamp brown butterflies at the left corners of the photo. Secure a pink flower between the butterflies. Stamp a floral border and “hello” pink border at the far right. Apply brown ink to the 3 girls postcard art and glue to the left side. Stamp “greetings” at the lower left. Glue chipboard stamp at the upper left. Secure flowers to the right of the art image.
  4. Cut journaling into think strips and ink the edges brown. Glue to the lower right below the stamped border. Apply ink to the tiny post card image and slip it between the torn paper edges. Stamp a butterfly at the top right. Secure a “best buds” heart to the left.
