To create the Welcome Gnome layout, you will need:

Step 1: Use a sheet of argyle paper as the base. Cut Navy Solid Cardstock to 10-7/8” x 9”. Cut white stars paper to 10-5/8” x 8-3/4”. Adhere white stars paper piece to cardstock piece. Align in the middle and adhere the piece about 3/8” from the bottom of the base page.

Step 2: Cut Navy Solid Cardstock to 10-7/8” x 2”. Cut white stars paper to 10-5/8” x 1-3/4”. Adhere the stars paper piece to the cardstock. Align in the middle and adhere the piece about 3/8” from the top of the base page.

Step 3: Use the Gnomes Border Punch to punch a border from Cranberry Solid Cardstock. Cut off of the cardstock at 1-5/8”. Use Micro-Tip Scissors to trim off one gnome from each end of the border.  Adhere the piece to the border you created in Step 2.

Step 4: Use Foam Squares to adhere gnome embellishment pieces to the border.

Step 5: Cut two 6-1/4” x 4-1/4” mats from Navy Solid Cardstock. Adhere one 6″ x 4″ and one 4″ x 6″ photo to the mats. Using the outside edge of the smallest heart Gemstone Custom Cutting System Pattern and the Green Blade, cut a heart from Navy Solid Cardstock. Use the Red Blade on the outside edge to cut a photo. Adhere photo to the mat.

Step 6: Using the outside edge of the smallest heart Gemstone Custom Cutting System Pattern and the Blue Blade, cut a heart from blue plaid paper. Use the Green Blade on the outside edge to cut a heart from White Solid Cardstock. Adhere the white heart to the blue plaid heart. Use the Red Blade on the inside edge to cut an egg shape from blue plaid paper. Use the 12-inch Trimmer to cut a straight edge on the wider end of the egg piece. Turn the heart upside down and adhere the egg shape to the bottom to create a “mushroom.” Use a Navy Dual-Tip Pen to draw journal lines.

Step 7: Layer and adhere photos and the mushroom piece as shown.

Step 8: Add stickers adhering some with Foam Squares for added dimension.

Step 2: Flip the cranberry and one white border to their opposite sides. Layer and adhere the cranberry border slightly off of the white border to create a shadow.

Step 4: Use the 12-inch Trimmer and the Scallop Blade to cut 12” x 3/4” strips from White and Cranberry Solid Cardstocks. Layer and adhere the white piece to the cranberry piece. Adhere the layered piece underneath the village border.

Step 5: Adhere the layered border to the top of a sheet of forest trees paper.
