Front Cover and Back
cover (page 2)
This book is basic and fun and should be a quick and easy project to duplicate. Keep in mind, I used the backs of some of the papers in your kit, so if you see something that doesn't look familiar, make sure to turn your papers over and see it it's the back side! Enjoy! Butterfly Shape: - Using the chipboard shape as a template, trace lightly with a pencil on the backside of the patterned paper. - Cut the shape out with scissors. - Optional: You may adhere the chipboard directly to the backside of the paper & use an X-acto knife to cut around the chipboard shape.
Front cover (Page 1): - Trace & cut the green dotted paper & adhere it to the chipboard page. - Punch the small hole. - Add the pink chipboard flower in the center of the butterfly. - Place a rhinestone floral sequin in the center of the chipboard flower. - Adhere 2 threaded turquoise buttons on the top and below the sequin flower. - Arrange the 2 dimensional sticker stems on each side of the chipboard flower as shown. - Cut a turquoise felt flower in half and adhere them on the bottom of the butterfly as shown.
Page 2: (back of front cover) - Leave the chipboard bare. - With a 1 1/4" circle punch, punch coordinating papers & align them vertically. Adhere. - Add flower & butterfly clear sticker.
