My First Car

Well, I finally got a layout made in February! I finally broke down and sorted through my huge box of pictures last weekend and this was a picture I was hoping to find! It was me in my patchwork skirt and blouse that I made and was taken around 1976-77. My car was a 1972 Dodge Monaco that was affectionately known as "the tuna boat"!

Part of my layout is inspired by Marilyn Rivera's "My Little Sweetheart" layout that she made last year. She had slanted strips with diamond shaped patches and I thought it would look great with my patchwork skirt.
It was not an easy task and I'm sure my strips are skinnier! Anyway, I am happy with the end result. Most of them were made from scraps I've had in my stash.

On the title I used AC's Burlap Thickers and didn't really care for the burlap with this so I used my Liquid Pearls to cover the letters.

The lace flower is one I made using white lace sprayed with Tattered Angels Glimmermist in Barn Red. The pretty white leather like flowers, little white doilies and sequined piece at the top left are from Marylou (Meggie's Nana). The flowers in the upper left corner are from Mary (Abbygirl). Thank you so much my dear friends! Beautiful butterflies are Reneabouquets. The pearl and rhinestone flowers are from Pam Wright's Boutique on Facebook. The beautiful golden raspberry glitter glass was from Gone Artsy.

Any questions you have, just holler, and thank you for visiting my gallery! I tried to upload several close-ups from different angles but our internet service wasn't having any of it, so sorry about that!
