1. Paint a square in the centre of your 12 x12 Cardstock with gesso. Add a textured area with gesso at the top left of this centre panel. Dry with heat gun. You can blot with paper towel to speed up this process.

2. While this is drying, you can make your pressed clay flower or button. And/or cut your canvas banner as shown. I did this with scissors but you could do this with ruler and craft knife. Cut the eyelets out as shown. Emboss the cut banner with embossing folder. Stamp title on banner with stazon.

3. When your gesso is dry, mist with water using mini mister and drop a few drops of ink onto water and let spread over the gesso area as shown. Blot with paper towels to get cool effect and dry with heat gun once more. Stamp World Map over textured area with Stazon.

4. Stamp Chevron Stamp to one side of textured panel making sure you get some stamping onto the Smoky Slate CS. Stamp with clear block and twine in three places with stazon.

5. Tie bakers twine to LO as shown. If adding a button you can add button when dry. Add photo onto Black Cardstock. Add doily and canvas banner as shown with small amount of adhesive in the middle

6. Finish LO by adding Photo mat with dimensionals over the banner/doily as shown. Tuck the title banner under the banner if desired. Add journaling with ruler and pen. Add Essential hardware clip where desired.
