1. Make pulp for papermaking according to kit instructions.

2. Form the sheet of paper, then place object with textured surface over the newly formed sheet. Allow item to remain there as paper dries (up to 3 days).

3. Use the dried, textured paper on the scrapbook page in the same manner as cardstock.
