Dress up—it's a favorite game for many young girls. What better way to capture those memories than this darling page?

By Lisa Garcia-Bergstedt

Supplies:

• patterned Paper Pizazz®: floral, pink gingham, lavender floral, lavender textured: Mixing Baby Papers
• vellum Paper Pizazz®: white: Vellum Papers (also available by the sheet)
• solid Paper Pizazz®: white: Solid Pastel Papers
• Austrian stones: Aurora Borealis, Dress It Up
• pink button: Dress It Up
• 3/16" gold brad: HyGlo/American Pin
• adhesive foam tape: Therm O Web
• black pen: Sakura Micron
• white pen: Pentel Gelly Roll

Instructions:

1. Attach a 1/2" x 1/2" floral strip to each side of the lavender textured background.
2. Mat each photo on white with a 1/32" border, then mat each on a different patterned paper with 1/4" borders. Attach one photo to the page with one layer of foam tape, the second photo with two layers, and the third with three layers, slightly overlapping each for the "gallery" effect.
3. Journal on a 9 1/2" x 2 1/2" piece of vellum and glue to the page, leaving space between the lines of text for the purses.
4. Use the patterns to create the purses; put foam tape on the inside of each to add depth. Use a stone, button and brad to accent them, as shown.
5. Add an Austrian stone at each corner of the vellum.
6. Journal a name in the upper left corner and add three more Austrian stones around it. Accent the stones with white penwork.
