gorgeous page and great shabby chic look. Great idea making a coordinating flower out of the napkin. Your crocheted flowers really rock. That's a skill I absolutely lack. And I find genius in how you managed the corners of your punch work! Very clever! Thanks for teaching me something in this gorgeous LO.
You most certainly did achieve the vintage "memory box" effect, Laurie! This is FABULOUS! I Love the crinkled pps and your techniques are wonderful! Fantastic flowers! Your girls are such cuties :) this is a FAVE for moi!
I think it's beautiful! Great punch work on the large border, and the handmade flowers! It looks exactly as you'd hoped and I bet the colors are a lot more rich in person ;)
Very lush!
This is great! I love the distressed paper. the vintage feel is perfect and the cluster of fllowers and embellies is a great touch! i think you did great!
wow Laurie! What a lot of work you've put into this totally adorable LO!You did an awesome job on this memory box look...not jumbled at all heehee and I love that you used that beautiful napkin!!!! such sweet pics of the girls!
so the colours didn't photograph quite right but it is late and I don't feel like fussing! This is an old picture of my dds when they were little. I think the older one was just in from her Christmas concert (their little voices singing makes me cry every time!) and we were taking pictures for posterity. The little one, not to be outdone, wanted her picture done too, even though she was all ready for bed! I tried a completely different style than my usual for this LO; I was trying for the jumbled vintage "memory box" look..hopefully it doesn't just look jumbled, haha! Everything from stash, which makes me happy and I tried some new techniques - water distressing and decoupage! The pp in the background is actually a cool paper napkin I found at Winners! I made the crochet lace flowers, the lollipop flower from the same napkin and layered the paper flowers. Lots of inking and distressing too. TFL!
