Step 3: Cut a piece of wide striped patterned paper to measure 11-1/4″ X 1″ and adhere it along the top edge of the cardstock.

Step 4: Cut a piece of dot patterned paper to measure 11-1/4″ x 1-1/4″ and adhere it along the bottom edge of the previous piece.

Step 5: Cut a piece of blue striped patterned paper to measure 11-1/4″ x 1/2″ and adhere it along the bottom edge of the previous piece.

Step 10: Cut one red photo mat to measure 6-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ and two red photo mats to measure 2-3/4″ x 3-3/4″. Adhere them to the layout. Then adhere one photo measuring 6″ x 4″ and two photos measuring 2-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ to the mats.

Step 11: Cut the green leaf patterned paper to measure 1″ x 2″. Cut a piece of red patterned paper to measure 1-1/4″ x 2-3/4″. Cut a piece of light blue patterned paper to measure 1″ x 2-1/4″. Cut a “v” into the lower edges of each piece using scissors and adhere them to the layout.
