Instructions  

(1) Cut Basic Grey paper to six inch square. Edge paper with Ink Blending Tool using Walnut Stain Distress Ink.

(2) Paint right one third portion of paper with Fired Brick Distress Crackle Paint.
Put aside to allow to crackle. When dry, use blending tool with matching
Fired Brick Crackle Paint. Note: to create the best “look” or contrast, bringing
out the cracks, use coordinating dye Distress Ink with Ink Blending Tool.

(3) Paint chipboard letters with Frayed Burlap. Allow to dry and crackle and use
blend with coordinating Ink.

(4) Print out photo and layer onto black cardstock with adhesive, creating a larger
border on paper on the bottom Paint around the photo, allowing some of the
paint to go onto the photo. When completely dry and crackled, rip bottom
page to create an exposed paper edge. Add staples.

(5) Cut strip of paper and paint with Old Paper Crackle Paint. When dry, layer
onto left side of page with overlay cut to size. Attach brads through layers
onto base cardstock. Distress brads with Texture Hammer.

(6) Glue on overlay using Glossy Accents as an adhesive.

(7) Print out “London” onto cardstock, cut out and place in bookplate. Attach to page. Also attach other embellishments such as photo turns, snaps and photo corners.
