• I used Stampin Up "Wild About You", where any wild animal stickers, digi stamps, other rubber stamp set would work just wonderful too!
• Colorful Photo corners

Assemble

1. Use the binding punch to punch on all your black pieces.  The punch will be on all the long length sides.
2. Stamp or sticker your white squares with your animals.
3. Glue your white squares to your 5 1/2 x 2 black piece, this will look like a film strip.
4. Glue photo corners to your 31/2 x 4 black pieces.
5. Adhere your 3 1/2 x 4 black piece first on the right or left side of a piece of your tan 6 x 6.
6. Adhere your completed film strip on an angle to the opposite side of your 3 1/2 x 4 piece, slightly overlaying the pieces.
7. Adhere the last black piece to the other 6 x 6 tan cardstock.
8. Woo hoo!  You are done!  If you like to embell more like I did, simply add some arrows!
