Embellish Your Pages
Quick & Easy

Vellums, Jolees by EK Success, & Paper by the Paper Patch bring the look of denim & paisleys to a new height! It's quick & easy using our layout techniques.

Just mix & match your embellishments with papers and basic layout ideas. Create a visual approach which draws your eye to all 4 corners of the layout.

Instead of putting the "Embellishments" in the center of the layout, we created a visual in each corner which causes your eye to "flow" around the layout.

Supplies Used & Available at our store include:

1. Jolees Denim Combo
2. Red Cardstock
3. Paisley Paper
4. Brads (Minis & Colors are in stock!)
5. Eyelets (Coming this week in all sizes & colors & SHAPES!)
6. Hermafix glue dispenser
7. Vellum

Basic Instructions:

1. Center & Adhere the paisly paper onto the true 12x12 red cardstock. (Note: the manufacturer sized paisly paper is 11 3/4 x 11 3/4. This centers easily onto our true 12x12 cardstock.)
2. Our Tips - To adhere the cardstock & papers we suggest using the following:
* Use Photo Tabs (self adhesive photo mounts)
* Use a hermafix glue dispenser (rolls & glues quickly & easily)
* Use a hermafix tab dispenser (no peeling of blue tabs.)
3. Cut the red strips 1 1/4 inch wide x length desired. Adhere with a 1/4 inch space between each strip.
4. Use the "eyelet hole puncher" to precut holes for brads. First center vellum (cut to your size - approx. 1/4 inch larger than your photo.) Next, tap out holes for brads by center vellum onto background. Slip brads into holes and expand the brad on the back.
5. Repeat for top frame & side vellum.
6. Peel and stick the "Jolees" Denim ensemble onto your layout!
