- Mount photos on white cardstock and arrange on patterned cardstock..
- Score, layer and chalk each die cut and place one in each circle shape. Secure with dimensional foam tape to elevate from page.
- Add title and journaling on vellum, tear around words and attach to photos with transparent adhesive.
Tips: Dimension can be achieved in many ways, chalking, layering, scoring, etc. Scoring is the art of making small creases on the backside of a die cut or other shape, then folding along the scored creases. You can take it one step further by shading the shape with chalks. The look is a very 3-dimensional embellishment. Scoring Technique - On the backside of a selected die-cut (here,a seashell is used), use a dull craft knife to lightly create score lines without cutting through to the front surface (figure C) .
- Fold accordion style along the score lines. Use chalk to shadow where the die cut has been folded. Add to page.
