2. Assemble all your paper onto the black cardstock.
3. Using the gold Icing Paste and a script stencil, stencil onto your layout, over the papers, as desired and set aside to dry.
4. Alter the beer board dream catcher as follows:
   • Paint the circle of the dream catcher as well as the feathers in a combination of the three rust pastes by dabbing the pastes with an old paintbrush, combining the colors until you are happy with the effect.
   • Once the pastes are dry, lightly rub the gold wax onto the raised sections of the pastes to bring out the detail.
5. Matt your photographs onto the 8x8 cardstock and then onto the 8x8 patterned paper. Raise your photographs onto the page.
6. Cut some pennants for the top of the page, raising the middle on onto the coordinating chipboard from the die cuts.
7. Heat emboss the title with gold embossing powder.
8. Assemble the rest of the elements on your page, by adding the dream catcher together with the feathers, flowers, paper embellishments etc. as desired.
9. Cut the dream catcher from C114 008 and raise it in the center of the dream catcher, adding a sticker in the center.
10. Dry brush some white gesso over the flowers and other embellishments to soften the colors.
11. Place some of the gold All Purpose Ink onto a craft sheet and lightly spray with water.
12. Using a small paintbrush, lightly splash the gold onto your layout as desired and leave to dry.
13. Your layout is now complete!
