1. Ink the edges of a sheet of pink/green striped paper and place it with the stripes running vertically. Ink the edges of a 12"x9 1/2" piece of brown allover brackets paper and glue it across the center of the page. Draw zigzag penwork overlapping the top and bottom edges of the brackets paper.
2. Ink the edges of a 2 1/4"x12" piece of white cardstock. Stamp “notes” at the top and journaling lines down the right side. Glue a 1/8"-wide strip of brown cardstock even with the left edge. Stamp stars between the brown strip and the journaling lines. Write on the journaling lines, then glue the cardstock strip even with the right edge of the page.
3. Tear the bottom off an 8 3/4"x8 1/2" piece of pink dotted paper, then ink all the edges. Run brown ribbon across the bottom of the paper, taping the tails to the back side. Glue the paper centered on the brackets paper. Add a brown brad to each corner of the brackets paper.
4. Double-mat a 7"x5" photo on white, then brown cardstock, inking the edges of the white mat. Glue the photo to the top of the dotted paper. Stamp a bracket to the left and right of the photo and outline each with dashed penwork.
5. Zot™ three silk flowers and a bow of brown ribbon across the ribbon length. Run embroidery floss through the holes on three buttons and Zot™ one in the center of each flower.
6. Stamp “memories” and the date separately on white cardstock and stamp asterisks at the ends of the words. Add dashed penwork and ink the edges of the stamped words. Add pink mini brads to the asterisk centers. Foam tape “memories” above the photo and the date below.
