4. Cut a frame using the Decorative Frame die from the Seabreeze cardstock. (Included in the add-on cardstock bundle). Using the centre off-cut carefully use it as a template to trim a photo to size. You will need to cut the photo approximately 1 mm wider than the off-cut. Adhere the frame to the photo. See Image 3

6. Cut a piece of Burlap to measure 6.75” x 4.75”. Glue this to the background page. Adhere the larger photo centred over the top. Using foam squares, adhere the smaller photo in the frame to the bottom right corner of the larger photo.
   
   
7. Using foam squares adhere the ‘Joy’ title from the creative cuts below the larger photo. See Image 4
   
   
   
8. Add a cluster of creative cuts and the Dusty Teal flowers to the top left corner of the large photo.
   
   
9. Use the Holly sprig die included with the Decorative Frame die to cut some decorative pieces from ‘Christmas’ cardstock. (Included with the add-on cardstock bundle) Include some of these amongst the other embellishments.
   
   
10. Fussy cut a tag or two from the Jolly Gift Tags paper and add behind the top edge of the large photo. Hole punch the top of one and tie some black twine. See Image 5
