We have now finished stamping our own focus page and to let you know how easy this was, I had my camera man doing this during the break and its all done ready to go. Now to do this type of page, I like to use a printed background to where the last one we did we used a solid and so your thinner background is kind of flimsy, so you’re going to need two pieces of paper for your background. One of a heavier card stock, which is going to have to be our base for our papers like that, then we have another accent page to matte our photographs and then of course we had our page that we made our own focal paper for and we’re doing for a baby theme. You will take this paper now and just like we did in the previous step, you will cut it to match your matte and then we’re ready to make our background pages. I’m going to skip on over to that and again we’re going to take our background and we have to do it in quarters again, our great number six and we need eight of these. Okay so there’s four of our eight but I’m going to go ahead and do the base page, same thing 6x6. So you’re actually needing one extra paper if you’re going to use the thinner background because it’s not sturdy. So you’re going to take that, you’re going to glue this onto here with a wonderful tombo, this is a permanent and usually because I’m going to be putting these in page protectors I would just mainly get the four corners and the center. Line those up, down, flip it over and then you’ll put another piece on there and you’ll do that to all of them and again it will give you the eight pages we need and then we’ll have a focal to make our final one, and this is what we’ll end up with, except I’ve used a complimentary polka dot to compliment my gingham, so now I can a book of 20 pages.
