To create…

1 Doodle and ink the edges of the base patterned paper. Trim the scull-patterned paper to measure 11×11″, ink edges and randomly make tears along all four sides. Curl back the edges and attach to the base patterned paper.

2 Attach the hessian fabric with double-sided tape, then hand-stitch along three sides. Gently tease the strands away from the edges of the fabric.

3 Sand and distress the edges of your photos, and attach. Ink the edges of a label, attach smaller panel of patterned paper with curled edges and apply a rub-on title.

4 Add some chipboard, a button, compass, die-cut journaling spot and trimmed motifs from patterned paper to complete your page.
