How do I make it?

1. Create a 10.5x14.5cm white card blank with the fold at the top. 
2. Re-size the Virgo digital image to measure 10cm high and print on white card. 
3. Colour the image using the markers listed below, then carefully fussy cut the image leaving a narrow border all round. 
4. Trim three pieces of different patterned papers to measure 9.5x14cm, 8.5x13cm and 7.5x10.5cm. Layer two of the papers (the larger two) together at different angles on the card front. Add a doodled border along each side of the card front. 
5. Die-cut three frames from white card and stick together for depth. Attach over the remaining patterned paper, then attach the image inside with frame applying foam pads behind the head. 
6. To finish, add two enamel dots to the top left corner, inside the frame.
