Xyron, Simple Stories And May Arts FUN!


I usually have a tutorial for my projects but this time I am going on vacation 
so I decided to make it short and sweet. 

For this project I used my Xyron 9" Creative station to adhere
the papers to the Tri-Fold Frame, Simple Stories Good Day Sunshine 
paper and embellishments. 
in place, and Xyron Adhesive Dots to pop up the stickers. 
 Then I tied it together using the 3/8" May Arts Satin Reversible Ribbons.
