Steps:
1. From your computer, print titles for all photos on gray-blue cardstock. Cut 4-1/2" x 6" rectangles and mount photos on them below journaling. Hot glue each photo to its own dowel pick (figure A).
2. Print journaling and doll's names on white card stock. Cut rectangles around journaling and names. Mat journaling with pool paper. Hot glue each journaling square on dowel pick (figure B). Mat boys' names on blue side of Soft Summer paper. Mat girls' names on pink side of Posy Garden paper.
3. Using portrait templates, trace and cut doll heads and hands from skin-tone paper. Cut hair and clothes, choosing colors and adding embellishments to match people in the photographs. Cut off clothes below shoulders. Hand-cut notches in hair. Use face template to draw faces. Adhere hair in front of or behind heads as needed. Adhere name blocks behind hands (figure C).
4. Attach each assembled doll to its own dowel pick.
5. Cut die-cut shapes for bouquet: two water splashes, fence, signpost, two ferns, fish, flip-flops and binoculars. Cut two or more colors of some shapes, then trim portions away and layer to create dimensional look. Adhere fence, signpost, fish, flip-flops and binoculars to dowel picks. Adhere ferns in front of fence and signpost die cuts. Write destinations on signpost.
6. Using fern-shaped die and Accu-Cut die-cutting machine, cut two ferns from green card stock. Adhere one fern to the front of the fence and one to the front of the signpost.
7. Using alphabet and alphabet background dies with the Accu-Cut die-cutting machine, cut letters to form title from pool paper and light blue card stock. Glue each letter to its own dowel pick (figure D).
8. Using Sunshiny Day template, trace and cut water border from two 12" x 5" pieces of pool paper. Adhere both pieces to side of papier-mache box at the bottom. Trace and cut sand border from two 12" x 2" pieces of sand paper. Adhere sand border over water border, around sides of box at the bottom (figure E).
9. Adhere floral foam in bottom of box. Fill box with blue shredded paper and insert items on dowel picks into floral foam to arrange bouquet (figure F).
