♥ Let's Begin! ♥

Open the photo pockets in your program, We'll be using this first. Add Journal Card 3 to the center pocket and Journal Card 2 to the side pockets. To do this, just eyeball the process. It really is not hard at all.

Once you have filled the pockets, move the journal cards to below the photo pockets and then resize by 35%.

Find two tubes by one artist to use on each of the cards. I am using two Zindy Neilsen tubes, "Fair Beauty" and "The Light Fairy," because both are light and done in pencil. 

On the Fair Beauty tube, I resized by 85% and then positioned it on the Journal Card 2 so it looks as if it fits on the card (duplicate and mirror for the other side). Mirror, drop shadow, mirror again and remove the excess on both cards. Change the blend mode to overlay.

On The Light Fairy tube, I upsized to 604 widths and add it to the Journal Card 3 area. Mirror, drop shadow and remove the excess.

Create a canvas of 1100 x 100. While on the photo pockets: Edit > Select All > Copy Merged and then add this to the newly created canvas; center in the canvas.Close down the original photo pockets we created.

Open solid paper 4, resize by 25% and apply the mask. Add one to the left side, duplicate, mirror and flip, then position before merging to get the desired look.

Open foliage 2, resize by 35% and add to the right of your design. Duplicate, mirror and then merge together.

Open foliage 2, resize by 25% and then add below the foliage 2 layer. Duplicate this layer, flip and then position; merge all layers together.

Open star 6, resize by 25% and then add above all layers and in the middle of the middle "frame" (photo pocket). Slightly turn to position.

Open the flower scatter, resize by 55%, mirror and flip, and then rotate by -10.00; position as shown over the foliage 2 layer.

Open the sequin scatter, resize by 35% and then add above the foliage 2 layer. Position as shown, drop shadow, duplicate, mirror and merge; erase the excess to achieve the effect shown.

Open flower 4, resize by 25% and then add one on each side of the star. Open flower 7, resize by 30% and then add above each of the flower 4 layers. 

Open flower 2, resize by 20% and add below the sequin scatter layer on each side.

Open stitching 3, resize by 50% and add above the foliage 2 layer on the left; erase the excess on the right. Duplicate and mirror then merge the two sides together.

Open flower 9, resize by 20% and add near the star (upper and lower). To finish, add two butterflies on either side of your design: one after a 20% resize and the other after a 15% resize.

Add any special touches and drop shadows now. Rearrange, crop or resize and then add your name and copyright and upload to enjoy.
