4. Cut around the inside of the border to create a frame. Be careful not to cut through each corner.

5. Measure and mark 6cm up from the bottom of the frame on each side. Glue a cardboard strip from Step 1 above this mark. Repeat this process from the top edge of the frame.

3. Measure and mark out a border that is 2cm wide around each side of the cardboard.

6. Apply glue to the border around the middle section and place a piece of blue cellophane on top.
