(1) Stamp the shadow stamp with Shell Pink on a 1” square of white, then stamp a flower on top of the shadow using the Watermelon ink pad. Sandwich the cardstock between two pieces of Memory Glass, then insert into the Memory Frame.
(2) Remove the jump ring from the bottom loop on the Memory Frame.
(3) Slide the 4mm bead onto the head pin, and use the wrapped loop technique to attach it to the bottom loop on the Memory Frame.
(4) Use the 49-strand stringing wire to string three 4” strands of beads. Make a wrapped loop with one end of a piece of the 22-gauge wire, leaving the rest of the wire straight. Use a crimp bead to secure one end of the three strands to the wrappedloop. Repeat the process for the other end of the strands.
(5) Insert the straight end of the wrapped loop through the cone bead, pulling it tight. Make a wrapped loop to secure the ends of the strands inside the cone. Repeat this for the other end with another cone bead.
(6) Attach the S-hook clasps to the wrapped loops on the cone beads, then hook these to the jump ring at the top of the Memory Frame.
