Use cardstock as your background. Mat your photos in green bling cardstock. Cut the following rectangles: 5" x 6" from Urban cosmos "suburb" and 4 1/2" x 8" from Urban cosmos "metro". String beads using a strong thread or embroidery thread to fit the desired area on your layout. Thread your string and come up through the backside of the layout. Add your beads and finish off by going through the front to the back with the needle. You can tack down areas of the stringed beads and tie off on the back. Use additional beads to add dimension to the centers of the flowers (difficult to see) by using glossy accents or another strong clear glue. Make a line of glossy accents along the corners of pictures and roll beads into place to make a photo corner of beads.
