a piece of shiplap designer paper as the base for this layout. Trim two 6&#8243; x 6&#8243; squares from the sand dollars designer paper. Adhere one square on the top-right corner and the other to the bottom-left corner of the base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> Cut a 12&#8243; x 1-15\/16&#8243; strip from the blue plaid designer paper. Make light pencil marks at 3&#8243; and 9&#8243; along one long side. Using the Sea Turtle Punch, center the punch on each mark and punch once. Rotate the strip to the opposite edge and punch on either side of your existing punches, ensuring they are evenly spaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> Cut two 12&#8243; x 1\/2&#8243; strips from the red oars designer paper. Adhere them behind the blue plaid strip so just 1\/8&#8243; of the red paper is visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Trim the assembled strip at 6&#8243;. Adhere one half of the strip 1&#8243; from the top-left edge and the other half 1&#8243; from the bottom-right edge of the layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 5:<\/strong> Punch four sea turtle shapes from the baby blue designer paper and two from the dark navy designer paper. Adhere the shapes into the punched-out areas on the blue plaid strips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 6:<\/strong> Cut the striped scallop laser cut border and the starfish laser cut border in half at 6&#8243;. Adhere the pieces on either side of the blue plaid pieces as shown above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 7:<\/strong> Fussy cut the \u201cAdventures at Sea\u201d ribbon from one of the mats and adhere it on the lower-right border using foam squares for added dimension. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 8:<\/strong> Adhere a 4-1\/2&#8243; x 6-1\/2&#8243; navy mat to the upper-right of the layout. Layer a 4&#8243; x 6&#8243; mat with the red oars mat on top. Crop a photo to 3-3\/4&#8243; x 5-3\/4&#8243; and mount it in the center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 9:<\/strong> Cut two mats apart at 3-1\/4&#8243; and adhere them to the bottom-left corner. Layer a 4&#8243; x 3&#8243; red oars mat on top of the navy mat. Crop a photo to 3-3\/4&#8243; x 2-3\/4&#8243; and mount it on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Step 10:<\/strong> Journal as desired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Now that you have heard how Annalisa plans to style these pieces and seen how to bring them together in this layout, we want to know your approach.
