Creating a "sweet baby" layout:
Here is what we will need:
Fibers, pink chalk and applicator, metal letters, mini alphabet stickers from
Making Memories, solid paper in pink and off-white, patterned paper to match,
jump ring, heart pewter charm, adhesive, scissors, pale pink pen, paper trimmer,
metal rimmed tag, "de-fined stickers" from Making Memories, Fabric
tags from Making Memories, 2 white eyelets, eyelet setter, hammer, cushioned pad
for setting eyelets, and your 5x7 photo.
Start with your solid pink 8x11 paper. With paper
trimmer cut a 3" wide strip to go across bottom. Cut your solid off
white paper to size to frame photo ~ leave about 2 inches extra at the bottom to
tear as in photo. Poke small holes (size of your eyelet base) in each
corner. Place an eyelet in a hole. Turn paper to backside and set
with eyelet setter tool. Hit with hammer until eyelet base is flush with
paper. For instructions on setting eyelets go here.
Do the other eyelet as well.
Next, String your ribbon, fiber, etc. through the eyelets, taping one end to the
back of the page. String your metal letters unto the fibers. You may also
adhere them down with glue dots. When finished, string this end through the
eyelet on this end and tape to the backside of paper.
For the tag: Using a fabric tag from Making Memories, add a sticker from
de-fined also from Making Memories. (I do not work for Making Memories, I
swear!!! I just really dig their stuff!). Next add the small letters to
the metal rimmed tag and color in with chalk. Add a jump ring to your
pewter charm and add to the metal rimmed tag. Add fiber for tie for tag
and tie in the metal rimmed tag as well. You may adhere also with glue
dots to keep it in place.
Last, but not least... Add name with a pale pink calligraphy pen.
String your metal letters unto the fibers. You may
also adhere them down with glue dots.
Tags are great.. you can use for your journaling, or to add
trinkets and sayings, etc. to. You can really get creative with them.
