To complete this step by step, first pop on over to the Scraploot store and grab the following supplies;
Little Yellow Bicycle - Head of the Class Collection
Papers

Geometry/Teal Test
Practice Yours ABC’s/Green Dot to Dot
- Alphabet Sticker Sheet
- Canvas Border Stickers

Other Materials
Textured Cardstock: White
Archival Ink: Jet Black
Doodlebug Simply Sweet Ladybug Cardstock Stickers
May Arts Twisted Burlap – Rust
Magic Mount
6mm & 12mm Xpress It Double Sided Tape
Xpress It Clear Gel Glue
Bella Sanding Block
1/2” circle punch
Step By Step
Take your Geometry/Teal Test Patterned paper, and using your trimmer, cut it to measure 8” x 9”. Ink the edges in the Archival Ink Jet Black. Adhere this piece to your Textured Cardstock White, approximately 1/2” in from the left edge of your cardstock and approximately 2” down from the top edge of your cardstock. Angle this piece up to the right.
Step 1
Using your trimmer, cut a piece of Dot to Dot/Blue Study Hall patterned paper to measure 9 1/2” x 2”. Ink the edges in Archival Ink Jet Black.
From your Practice Your ABC’s/Green Dot to Dot, cut a strip of alphabet to measure 9 1/2” in length. Ink the edges in Archival Ink Jet Black.
Adhere the Alphabet strip from the Practice Your ABC’s/Green Dot to Dot patterned paper to the centre of your Dot to Dot/Blue Study Hall patterned paper. Now that these two pieces are together, take a pair of scissors and cut the right end to look like a banner as shown in the photograph below.
Step 2
Adhere this piece to your layout approximately 2 1/4” – 2 1/2” up from the  bottom edge of your cardstock, on the same angle as you place the Geometry/Teal Test patterned paper. Leave the “notebook” section of the Geometry/Teal Test patterned paper exposed.
Take your photo and using your Bella Sanding Block, distress the edges of your photo. Adhere your 6” x 4” Portrait photo approximately 3 3/4” in from the left edge of your layout and approximately 2” down from the top edge of your layout. Again, keeping it angled.
Finish of your layout by embellishing it the Clear Cut Shapes, Journal Cards, Stick Pins, Canvas Border Stickers and Twisted Burlap as shown in the photograph below. Below is a close up of the cluster of Journal Cards, Clear Cut Shapes and Stick Pins.
