Once I got going I really had fun with this one! I couldn't believe how fast I found the papers to use for it. This photo was taken in 1944 (from what my aunt figured). It is from left to right - Aunt Eva, my Mom (Mary), my grandma (Lillie Mae), Aunt Jerry and Aunt Cleda. The cloisonne button on the heart at right was in my Mom's button tin so it gives it special meaning to me. The beautiful butterflies are from Renea's Reneabouquets Etsy shop, the pretty papers that I punched were 6x6 that I pieced together were from the drawing I won from Scrapbooking by Phyllis as well as the ribbon roses and dressform. The large key and crest were from a drawing that I won from Nini's Things, all the way from Australia! The ribbon, little purse charm, scissors, little key and painted wood heart were from my best friend, Susie Weaver, for part of my birthday gifts! Reneabouquets also sells those scissors! The pearl necklace I made by cutting a strand given to me by Jellybean (Brandy) and the feather under the flowers is from Scraphouse (Melissa). Thank you ladies for making my layout so special!

The die-cuts are from the Ornamental Iron 2 cartridge I used on my Cricut. On the large piece, I painted it with white acrylic paint and sprinkled on Stampendous Shabby White embossing powder and heat embossed it. The frame I just dabbed with Tsukineko Dewdrops Purple Hydrangea chalk ink using a seafoam sponge, then sprayed it with Perfect Pearls spray mist.

On the butterflies, I inked around the edges a bit with the Purple Hydrangea chalk ink so they would show up a little better. I just love them! Also did that to the dressform.

Thank you so much for stopping by my gallery! Hugs!
