    Figure A

    Andrea Grossman shares her technique for "elevating" elements from the page.

    Materials:

    12" x 12" cream scrapbook page
    Yellow gift card
    A variety of garden- and baby-themed stickers
    Five 3-1/2" squares of blue gingham paper
    4 x 2-1/2" vellum
    Foam tape
    Baby powder
    3-1/2" x 1/16" yellow satin ribbon

    Begin by arranging themed-stickers and begin placing one motif (here, puppies are used) along the bottom edge of four of the gingham squares. Layer the same motif of sticker over the first, using foam tape to "pop" it -- or elevate it -- away from the first sticker layer (figure A). Use the same technique to add additional stickers over the page.

    Begin layering all stickers as desired to add dimension -- adding baby powder to neutralize parts that overlap.

    Add photographs.
