3. Age paper lightly with old paper and edges with vintage photo distress inks.

4. Run Rub-on Transfer Tape around the edge of each paper panel.

5. On the back of the 3 larger transparency panels stamp gum leaves with StazOn Timber Brown and colour leaves in with lettuce Adirondack Acrylic. Colour flower in centre panel with a blend of Blue and Green Metallic Markers. Attach to background paper with Loctite Quicktite Brushable glue and mini eyelets.

6. Matt panels onto Java and gold foil board and mount on coverboard. Colour the sides of the coverboard with black ink.
