MDS Thursday: Fake it Til You Make It > Top Note

I use the Top Note die a lot on my cards and regular scrapbook pages, so I wanted to be able to use it on my MDS pages too. So it was time to fake it.

( BTW:I did this before the Top Note was available for MDS download.)

I used the same layout as last week.  I really like it :)




The fake in the this layout is the "Top Note" on the second page.

How to fake a "Top Note":



 Add the curly label punch and enlarge it.


Use the paper fill to add a DSP.


Add a second curly label punch


 Enlarge it and place it over the original "top note".  Use the shift key to highlight the two punches > click on align objects > center.  This helps to create the border look.


Fill it with a contrasting DSP.
 

And Ta Da!!!! A fake Top Note !!!

Go give it a try.  Thanks for looking.
