·                With your remaining papers, start to create layering beneath your photograph, adhere some with Tombow and some with glue dots so that you get a 3D effect (refer to the photographs).  Incorporate your fussy cut embellishments / elements, gauze, green cardstock and green thread in the layering as you work.  Distress all the edges of the paper you use

·                Create a stencilled mesh background with some gold ink and a strip of Rhino tape; it should “frame” your layered work.  Apply a few flicks of cranberry mist as well, dry with a heat gun if necessary.  Once you’re happy with your layered ‘pack’, adhere it to your base page, slightly off centre, using Tombow

·                Finally, adhere your title chippie to the left of your layered ‘pack’

Instructions:

STEP 1:

Your base are lilac card tags. From Vintage Prams paper C89 004, cut out slightly smaller tags that you will glue onto the base tags. I traced the original tag on the paper and then cut it 2mm from the inside line. This is your first layer.

STEP 2:

Using Stencil DS 058 C89 range and texture paste (you can mix it with the pink ink to add colour), make a ‘stamp’ on the background.

STEP 3:

In the bottom corner of each tag, glue a piece of a paper doily. Sprinkle blue, white and pink ink all over the tags to add colour and texture. Leave to dry.

STEP 4:

Colour the Chipboard die-cut TINY MIRACLE DC89 004 to match your colour theme (I used white ink to make it stand out and then ‘watercoloured’ it with blue and ink paint). Leave it to dry.

STEP 4:

From the Sticker sheet ST89 001, glue both prams on white card and fuzzy cut.

From blue card, cut a hanger and from Boys Playtime paper C89 007 cut a baby grow and assemble together.

STEP 5:

TAG1:

Using 3d foam tape, attach blue pram and glue on 2 blue paper straws.

TAG2:

Using 3d foam tape, attach pink pram and glue on 2 pink paper straws.

TAG3:

Using 3d foam tape, attach the baby grow and glue on one pink and one blue straw. On top glue the TINY MIRACLE chipboard.
