Designer’s Tip: Pink Jewel Dazzles™ are the perfect accents for these metal embellishments! The large corners come with a large triangle of foam tape on the back. I didn’t want the foam tape to show through, so I cut the large piece into smaller chunks and placed them at the center and ends of each corner.
Instructions:
- You will use Roses & Lace green/pink tiles paper as your background. Mat a 7”x5” photo on Roses & Lace light green lace paper with 1/2” borders, then on Roses & Lace dark gray textured paper with 1/16” borders. Mat again on Roses & Lace dark pink lace paper with 1” borders, and Roses & Lace dark gray textured paper with 1/16” borders. Glue centered on the page, 1” from the top.
- Write or computer print journaling, title, and date on Roses & Lace light green lace paper. Trim the journaling into a 5 1/2"x2 1/4" rectangle and mat on Roses & Lace dark gray textured paper with 1/16” borders. Glue on the page, even with the left side of the oversized photo mat, and 1/4" from the bottom. Use the Tiny Tags & Little Labels Template to trace the Bracket Label F shape around the date so it is centered inside the shape. Repeat for the title. Remove the template and cut out the labels. Mat each on Roses & Lace dark gray textured paper with 1/16” borders. Glue the “date” label centered on the bottom of the dark pink oversized mat, 3 1/2” from the left side of the page. Glue the title on the page, 1 3/8” from the right side and 1 1/4" from the bottom.
- For the metal embellishments: Place a Large Photo Corner at each corner of the dark pink oversized mat. Place 3 individual cherry blosoms of various sizes scattered on the left side of the dark pink mat. Place 2 individual cherry blossoms on the right side of the dark pink mat and edge of the pale green mat. Tie 2 metal keys together with 1/8” wide green grosgrain ribbon and Zot™ in place on the right side of the dark pink mat, below the cherry blossoms. Add a small cherry blossom on the left edge of the “date” label. Place the 2 stems of cherry blossoms staggered between the title and journaling block as shown.
- Place Platinum Jewel Border Dazzles™ centered across the top and bottom of the pale green mat. Cut a 7” length of green grosgrain ribbon and glue it even with the bottom of the photo. Tie a green bow and Zot™ on the left side of the ribbon length. Place Pink Jewel Dazzles™ on the cherry blossoms for centers and add to corners and keys as desired.
