1. Cut patterned paper to 8 1/2" x 7" . Cut a 1" x 8 1/2" strip off the bottom of this. Cut an 8 1/2" x 1 1/4" strip of matching patterned paper. On top and bottom edges, wet and curl back and forth between your thumb and index finger, tearing a little here and there. distress side edges.

2. In pencil, mark an 8 1/2" x 8 1/2" square in the centre of background paper. Attach largest patterned paper piece at the top, leave a gap and attach matching strip, then 1' wide strip.
