Place small dots of adhesive on back of wire word and attach to top of album.

GIFT BAG

Use deckle-edged scissors to cut silver paper around green paper, leaving a 1/4-inch silver border all around. Use Mono adhesive to attach silver paper centered on front of bag.

Tear a 1 1/2-inch x 3-inch oval from ivory mulberry paper and use Mono adhesive to attach to green paper on bag, about 1/2-inch from bottom. Tear a piece of ivory handmade paper into a rough vase shape, about 2 1/2-inch tall, and attach on top of oval with sticky squares.

Thread ribbon through charm and tie a small bow. Trim ends. Use E6000® adhesive to attach charm near top of vase.

Arrange roses at top of vase and glue in place with E6000® adhesive.
