color-copied bunch of spaghetti or other three-dimensional subject

4. Peel the adhesive backing off the photos and attach them to the matting, and then peel the backing from the matting and place on the page.

5. Stamp shapes and images of your choice (including photo corners) onto sticker paper, coloring them with brush-art markers.

6. Cut out the stamped images and photo corners, leaving tiny edges.

7. Adhere color copies of spaghetti or the subject of your choice to the page.

8. Place stamped images around the photos randomly.
