  1. Use the page with the wider swirl border at the left side as the background. Mat a photo on golden yellow cardstock, leaving extra space at the right side for journaling. Add journaling with the black pen and mat on the green cardstock.
  2. Attach a strip of brown ribbon across the bottom. Tie a knot and attach it with a Zot™ on the right side. Adhere the mat to the upper right portion of the page. Add maroon brads at the top corners.
  3. Journal on golden yellow cardstock and trim to a tag shape. Mat on green and attach near the lower right corner with a brad.
  4. Stamp two of the leaves with the script stamp- remove the stamp promptly to avoid bleeding. Let dry completely. Arrange the stamped leaves and plain leaves over the bottom of the photo, overlapping each other. Add a brad at the bottom as shown.
