3. Ink the edge of canvas with the Walnut Stain ink pad to create a worn look.

4. Stamp fairy holding flower with Jet Black ink in one of the corners.

5. Using the Lumiere paints, paint the fairy image. Let dry.

6. After the paint dries, use the Pitt Artist pen to outline the fairy image.

7. Create a matt for your photo by cutting patterned paper 1” larger for the width and height of the photo you will be mounting to give a ½” border.

8. Cut the same patterned paper the same width, but add 1 ½” on the bottom. Now rip the bottom.

9. Curl the ripped bottom up and then mount photo.

10. Mount cardstock with photo to the canvas.

11. Place ribbon on bottom of the photo.

12. Place flowers on lower right side of the photo.

13. Make a bow of ribbon and place the bow on top of the ribbon at the bottom of the photo near the flowers.

14. Place flowers in the opposite corner of the stamped fairy under the photo.

15. Place the title with Xyron of art work at the side of the photo.
