The layout shown here uses a pre-printed overlay from Karen Foster Design to completely cover the background printed paper. A small piece was also placed behind the photo mat in such a way that when the corner was folded over, the printed overlay was turned to the front.
Just slightly more difficult to use than a brad, an eyelet will also work to attach transparencies and overlays to your scrapbook pages. Here the eyelet is used to not only secure the corner of the overlay, but also create a place to attach some paper floss with a charm tied to it.
