Tip: Die cut some more shapes using plain cardstock and layer with the patterned shapes to add stability. 

3. Arrange the shapes onto the prepared panel trimming some to fit at the edges, once you are happy with the arrangement go ahead and fix in place using 3d foam pads. 

Tip: Use the inner frame as a guide to fix the shapes tightly up to the edges. 

4. Add your chosen photo on top of the paper shapes. 

5. Fix three floral toppers around the photo. 

6. Attach a sentiment along with a handful of gems here and there.
