Steps:

  1. Presoak garden botanicals in a bowl of water while preparing pulp to soften petals for paper making.
     
  2. Recycle 1 1/2 sheets of buff color photocopy paper, adding a 3" x 3" piece of white mulberry paper for the last few seconds of blending.
     
  3. Follow kit directions to make paper. Press dry sheet under stack of books overnight before creating page.
     
  4. Trim brown scrapbook paper to 11 3/4" on three sides. Use a deckle edge ruler to create torn edge on the fourth side.

  6. Layer larger handmade piece onto a 7 1/4" x 8 3/4" gold cardstock. Stamp, accent and embellish page.
     
  7. Mount 4" x 6" image onto 8 1/2" x 6 1/4" card stock folded in half. Mount on page with tiny hinges and clasp. Journal inside booklet with grey gel pen.
     
  8. Layer all onto gold 12" x 12" scrapbook page. Keep forever!
