1. Use the gray textured paper as the background. Tear the right edge only of the tan with words, black and charcoal words paper to create different widths.

2. Layer the papers on the left side as shown to mimic the shoreline of the ocean.

3. Group the silver fibers together and tie a knot in them. Run the fibers vertically over the top of the layers and secure them to the back using clear tape.

4. Mat the large photo on a thin mat of black and attach in the upper right corner of the page.

5. Use the square punch to punch out a photo of each of the three girls. Insert each photo into a slide mount and glue the slide mounts closed. Cut out the tape-style fragments and add one vertically to each side of the slide mount.

6. Write the names on the slide mounts with the black pen. Ink the edges of the slide mounts black and let dry.

7. Insert a brad in the top of each slide mount and attach them to the page, spaced evenly next to the large photo.

8. Cut out the "soul" definition. Ink the edges black, let dry and attach to the bottom of the page at an angle.

9. Cut out the remaining tape-style fragments and attach "Follow Your Bliss" to the bottom of the large photo.

10. Mat the small photo on black. Add the remaining fragments to the small photo.

11. Insert a brad in the top left corner of the small photo and attach it at an angle with foam tape.

12. Journal the date and place on the background paper in black pen.
