How to Make it
Make two 8" x 10" enlargements 
Take your picture to a KODAK Picture Maker and follow the on-screen directions to Select an 8" x 10" enlargement. To get the full-color enlargement, Scan your original picture and Print it. Follow the same steps again - but to create a black-and-white enlargement, this time choose Scan Black and White Picture. And Print.
  
Silhouette the people 
Carefully cut out the family from the color enlargement, trimming right to the edge of their figures. Then match them up to where they stand on the black and white enlargement, and use Pop Dots to affix the color silhouette on top of, and slightly raised from, the B and W picture.
  
Piece together your page 
Use one 12" x 12" piece of red/orange cardstock as the background page. Adhere the feature picture to the lower right-hand corner of the page. To create the color-blocking technique shown, cut smaller pieces of patterned paper and cardstock. Adhere it to the background page to create separate areas for your title, journaling and accents.
  
Journal and title it 
Use lettering stickers to put the title along the upper left-hand side of the layout. Use black pen to create your journaling on the patterned paper in the upper right-hand corner.
  
  Finish up with accents 
For the key accent; stamp the key image on clear vellum. Let it dry completely, then cut it out. Punch a hole in the key and tie fiber through the hole. Adhere to the page near the title block.For the stamp accent; stamp the image on clear vellum. Let it dry completely, then cut it out using decorative scissors. Mat on various shades of cardstock and adhere to the remaining block.
