How to make
1a. Open Design Space and draw a square the same size as your box frame
1b. In the mage section search for 'Blanket rug' and add this to your canvas placing it on top of the square
Cut your design on your paper and once you're done, head back to the canvas
Click on just the Blanket rug design and then select 'operation' in the tool box and change this to 'draw'
Click 'make' and your design should be drawn on the card as well as cut around the edges
Using the pen as a guide, cut your scraps and layer them over the pattern until it's completely covered
When your paper is covered, take your foam pads and place them on in the corners and middle of the pattern
To finish your design, place the cut piece of paper over the top of the foam pads and press it gently in place – your project is now ready to be framed
