For my sister's 50th birthday. My niece came up with the idea of using a Fairy Tale as the theme, and the "story" is told by printing on a clip-art scroll. The scroll is colorized, depending on the layout.

  4. Manipulate a photo in Paint Shop Pro, using the various filters and effects, and print on watercolor paper
  5. Tear edges and attach to center of layout with foam tape

    Scroll reads: Princess Rachel was the apple of Princess Hara's and Prince Alan's eye. She grew up like her mother, kind, gracious and beautiful.

  5. Print scroll and attach to bottom left of first page with foam tape

  8. In a graphics program, draw a 1" x 1" rounded-corner square, line width 5, and duplicate to make 10 squares

  10. Fill the other squares with the letters M-E-X-I-C-O in Casablancs Antique font
  11. Print on tan cardstock and cut out

    Scroll reads: As Good-Will Ambassador for her father, King Albert, Princess Hara traveled to many neighboring Kingdoms. In 1995, she visited the Kingdom of Arizona with friends. In 1999, she and Prince Alan visited the Kingdom of New Orleans, where Jazz is King. She made several trips to the neighboring Kingdom of Mexico, shown here in 2003 with the Dorfmans and in 2005 with Princess Rachel and Prince Jared.

 

Italy 1

  1. Cut 12"x12" diamond writing paper in half and attach each half to the top of 12"x12" cream cardstock, leaving 1/8" border around edges
  2. Tear 12"x12" fresco decorative paper in half and attach to the bottom of each page
  3. Ink all edges with tea dye distress ink
  4. Print 5 photos, 4 1/2" x 3" and attach along the top of the layouts, cutting the middle photo in half, and attaching half to each page.
  5. Print text on scroll and attach with foam tape to left side of first page
  6. Cut cardstock to frame a 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" photo
  7. Sponge with distress ink, dab with clear embossing ink, and clear emboss three times
  8. Sprinkle on gold embossing powder, leaving the background to show through in a few spots and heat emboss
  9. Heat a section at a time until the gold powder melts, and press the leaf stamp into the frame
  10. Attach photo behind frame and tape to layout
  11. Sponge three Clay Tiles with brown dye ink and cover tops with Glossy Accents. Let dry and glue to bottom left of layout. (The original tiles blend nicely with the layout, while the scan makes them stand out too much). The swirls in the tiles appear when the Glossy Accents moves the ink a little.

    Scroll reads: Princess Hara traveled to Europe for the first time in 2005 when she visited the Kingdom of Italy with the Princess Rachel and friends. She enjoyed it so much, that when an opportunity arose the next year, she and Prince Alan took a cruise around the mediterranean, stopping at several Kingdoms, and revisiting Italy.

 

Italy 2

  1. Follow directions 1-4 from Italy 1
  2. Print two photos, and cut brown cardstock a little larger
  3. Ink the edges of the cardstock with clear embossing ink and sprinkle with gold embossing powder - a light touch is all you want
  4. Attach the photos to the mats with foam tape, and attach to the layout with foam tape (the heating warps the mats a little and it's easier to attach the photos with foam tape, rather than trying to glue them down flat)
  5. Print I-T-A-L-Y in Two Peas Gift font, using brown color, and print on parchment cardstock
  6. Cut out, ink with clear embossing ink and heat emboss (I only used one coat to leave the texture a little bumpy)
  7. Attach to bottom of layout with foam tape.
