Good morning friends, Leah here with you today to host the blog. How have you liked the posts you've seen so far with our amazing new February kit? I hope you have been inspired as much as I have!
Today, I have a step by step photo tutorial on how to create this layout, with extra photo insert using the XL heart and heart card today.
I walk you through each step from creating the card and putting it together, as well as assembling your layout.
I have compiled the tutorial into a .pdf file for you to download and use later. It is chock full of detailed photos and instructions for you to recreate this layout if you wish to do so.
Let's open up that card, shall we?
I show you how to add four more 4x4 photos to the inside of your decorative card to make this layout interactive and fun.
Everything you need to recreate this layout is included in your kit, except for a couple of tools such as a corner rounder, machine stitching, washi tape, your liquid glue of choice, and your photos. The corner rounder and machine stitching are definitely optional.
I love using these cards in a new way to add even more photos to my layout, yet still have a fresh design as well.
The tutorial is available for download in a word document below

Happy Creating!!
