How To: Use a 2 1/2" square punch to punch several squares from a mix of DIY Shop 3 patterned papers.  Use scissors or a paper trimmer to cut squares in half diagonally, to create triangular pieces.  Print a small black and white photo. Trim photo to 2 1/2"x 2 1/2".  Use scissors to cut photo in half diagonally.  Arrange photo and triangular pieces on a white
cardstock background, adhere down with adhesive.  Flick drops of black ink across the page.  Use a sewing machine and white thread to stitch down pieces.  Tear strips of washi tape and adhere to layout.  Adhere tag and string to left hand side of page and use a stapler to staple down.  Adhere a piece of white string to top right hand side of page, adhere with a paperclip and staple down. Add metal rimmed tag to page.  Add date and phrase stamp to both tags.  Finish by adding stickers and enamel dots to page.





Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you enjoyed my layout!
