Kit 22, Such A Lovely Day layout.

You need:
A Good Craft knife.
Light pink ink pad,
Foam Tape,
4x6 photo,
Strong Glue,

Steps:
1. Take the Blush "Favorite" paper and fussy cut out the Bunting and the birds, take your time cutting them out.
2. Take the Blush "Beautiful Girl", and cut the inside of the frame out and also the bird cage.
3. Cut the barcode strip of the bottom of the Blush "Sweet" paper, Glue the wide lace across the paper from the right to the left, I put the glue on the lace then attached it to the paper.
4. Cut a 6x8 inch piece from the left over Beautiful Girl paper and a 6x8 inch piece from the left over Favorite paper, place one on top of each other, then with a sewing machine stitch around the edges about 1 inch in. Rip the top paper from the bottom paper, ripping small bits at a time, creating a distressed look, when happy, ink with a pink ink pad.
5. Adhere your 4x6 photo into place and if desired use the small circle doily on the corners of the photo, this is done by cutting the doily in half then wrapping it around the corner and adhere it into place with double sided tape.

6. Ink the triangle white lace in brown ink or Glimmer Mist, leave to dry, when dry take the cut out bunting with the birds and using a sewing machine sew the lace to the top of the bunting, see photos, Note: if using white thread go over the stitches with the brown ink pad, to colour in it.
7. Ink around the edges of the bunting and scrunch the whole bunting, being careful of the birds, when happy attach it to the background paper, please note that the frame will be glued over the top of the bunting, see photo.

8. Take the large frame which you have already cut out and distress around the edges, you can use finger nail, then ink with pink ink pad, then attach to the back ground paper using foam tape.
9. Using the hat pin and the cream lace, thread the lace on to the hat pin gathering as you go, then attach it to the layout below the bunting using a good strong glue.
10. Take the bird cage that you have already cut out and distress around the edges and ink, then attach to the bottom of the hat pin with foam tape, see photos.

11. Ink or spray the dress form in brown. When dry, start dressing the dress form first with the tulle, wrap around the dress form, making it a little bit bigger at the bottom, then wrap the ruffle fabric around the dress form and glue to the back using a strong glue, I used a hot glue gun. When finished, cut off the excess fabric, then wrap a piece of the left over brown lace around the waist of the dress form and finish with a small rose, then attach to the layout.

12. To finish the layout, bling it up the layout with lots of kindy glitz.

Thanks and enjoy creating your layout.

Doily Tray Kit 20

Also you will need One of the following: Glitter Glass, Glitter or Embossing Powder in Pink and Silver

1. Start by painting the front section, sides and back of your tray (no need to paint where your photos will go) in your choice of colour (I used white). Leave to dry.

2. Trace with a pencil/fine tip pen around each frame onto the back section of your tray (see photo). Make sure you position the back of the tray correctly with the hanging hook at the top.

3. Choose how many photos you would like to include, decide where you would like to place them. Now place top of doily tray over the first photo and trace the shape onto front of photo and cut out 3mm larger than outline. Repeat for all photos except for the large rectangle in the middle of tray as that is 4"x 6".

4. Now position your photos onto the matching drawn template, adhere. Repeat for all photos.

5. Do the same for all of the patterned paper (as per photo). Then cut out lace to fit right bottom corner frame then glue lace over the top of paper.

6. Next to your 4"x 6" photo cut a piece of patterned paper to fill gap. Glue down lace next to photo and attach pearl strip. Please note: I have also glued the self adhesive pearls down for extra security.

7. Now get out all of your chipboard pieces. Start by covering pieces with Dimensional Magic or Glossy Accents and shake glitter glass over glue, shake off excess glitter. Do the same for all chipboard pieces but please note the bird is in pink glitter glass. Once dry, attach to your tray with Dimensional magic or Glossy accents (as per photo).

8. Please note for the title I have used my own personal rub on, you may wish to put your own title on.

9. Now glue your two pieces together. Please be careful not to use too much glue as it will ooze out of the sides! If this does happen, use a paintbrush to gently wipe away excess glue. Hold together with pegs whilst drying.

10. Lastly, glue down your Prima flower vine around the edge of your frame. I also used pegs to hold down while it was drying. You may wish to softly ink the edges of your tray to finish it off.

Thanks From The Girls At Fred.

Kit 13 "sweetie pie".

Hi, For kit 13 I used the Webster's Pages Let's Celebrate range, which I also covered the Dressform in.

So let's begin:

Step 1. Cut a 9.5inch square out of the "Surprise"paper. Use that paper to mount your photo on (on the dot side).  Now trim the paper leaving a 1cm border around the edge of the photo and distress.

Step 2: Take the "Party blooms"paper and fussy cut the entire paper from the top lefthand corner flower around to the yellow flower on the right hand corner. PLEASE NOTE! Leave at least 1cm at the beginning of where you start cutting and at the end so you can slot the die cut paper in later.

Step 3: Take the die cut paper and cut along the top of the orange border, distress around the edges and slot it into the Party Blooms paper (see photo).

Step 4: Stick down your mounted photo into place (see photo). Now take the pink felt trim and using a  piece of double sided tape stick it to the layout and as you go gather the trim and stick down.

Step 5: Take "You're invited" and cut out the entire cake stand. Once done, using mounting tape, place cake stand on top of left hand side of photo (see photo).

Step 6: Using mounting tape, stick down all of the roses and flower, that are around the edge of the layout, to create a layering effect.

Step 7:  Now bend the top right hand corner of the die cut paper and the yellow paper back so you create a "scroll "effect and tape down. Add titleUSING MINI ALPHAS AND YOUR OWN ALPHAS.

Step 8: Please follow the instructions below to complete the dress form then stick down on the right hand side of the photo.

Here's a quick step by step:
1. Colour the base and the top of the dress form.

2. Cover the dress form with glue and stick down on top of the wrong side of the paper.

3. Cut around the edges, sand with file set or sand paper.

4. Make a skirt out of 15cm x 8.5cm piece of paper, border punch the bottom of the paper and fold, i have used a score pal to help with the folding but you can create it with your hands as well.

5. Glue down some tulle first then add the skirt and then some trim on top, make sure you glue it down at the back of the dress form.
6. Add a flower and lots of Kindy Glitz to bring out the bling.

Step 9: Now to finish your layout add touches of kindyglitz (I used Crystallina) wherever you would like to  to emphasise details.

Thanks from the girls at Fred.
