"Just be you"

Today, I am going to show you step by step how I created a layered scrapbook page.

While GlueArts products can be used on a variety of crafting projects, one of the best ways to use it is on a good old-fashioned scrapbook page. 

Using the great products from GlueArts can give your pages amazing dimension and depth.

This tutorial will show you, step by step, how to create the “Just Be You” page, using products from GlueArts, BoBunny, Spellbinders and Words or Whatever.

This tutorial was originally published in the May 2012 issue of ScrapnArt magazine.

3. Cut a 6”x6” square from the BoBunny Ambrosia Lily paper and place as shown.

4. Cut a matte for your photo from yellow cardstock. Place photo on matte and adhere. Place at an angle on your paper.
