| Instructions
|
| Using two variations of the same technique, you can
stamp a light or dark image onto the border. For the first technique
and a lighter image, ink your small shadow stamp and then take a
leaf stamp and without inking it, stamp it onto the shadow stamp.
Then stamp onto paper. This will leave a light stamped image in
the center. For the darker image technique, ink the shadow stamp
and ink the leaf stamp before stamping onto the shadow stamp. For
a textured look to your shadow stamp, slide the stamp across the
inkpad and then stamp |

1. |
For this frame, stamp 9 light and 9 dark images onto
cream paper using the small shadow stamp. Once the ink is dry, cut
out the images using scissors and leaving a slight border around
the shadow stamp. Freehand cut with a slight wave for a rustic look. |
| |
2. |
Adhere stamped images on yellow cardstock in a border
around photo. Rustic cut outside edge of yellow paper and layer
onto green cardstock and then cream, rustic cutting each edge with
scissors. |

3. |
To create the title and journaling border, ink large
shadow stamp and stamp image onto cream paper 10 times. Cut out
squares in rustic cut and adhere across the top and bottom of burgundy
background paper, slightly overlapping squares to form a diamond-shaped
“chain” across the page. For the title, write out the
title with a bold tip pen and then cut out the letters leaving a
slight border around each one. Adhere to top row of squares. |

To make the photo stand out adhere foam dots to the
back edge of the border frame and adhere to page. |
