Step x step layout with Grapic 45

Hi everyone... today, I have a layout, complete with step x step instructions, which I made for the Graphic 45 blog today. I've used the cute 'Mother goose' collection, for this bright, summery layout starring my son jack.

Step-1
1. Cut the frame from the ‘Mother goose paper
Step-2
2. Turn the paper over, and use reverse side of ‘Mother goose’ paper. Adhere both to cardstock backing.
Step-3
3. To create the sun, cut a circle shape from ‘A pocket full of posies’ paper, roughly 14 cm (5.4 inches) diameter. TIP: I have used a die to cut the circle, but, you can use any small round object, such as a plate, a lid or similar.
Step-4
4. Draw and cut out 1 ‘sun ray’, then use that as a guide to cut 5 more, the same size.
Step-5
5. Cut a rectangle to size, from ‘Story time’ paper, and assemble as shown above. Add your photos, and a die cut fence, cut from black cardstock.
Step-6
Step-7
Step-8
6. Fussy cut above images, mount onto foam tape, and adhere, as shown onto layout, along with your choice of flowers, and leaves.
