Family -Memory Book ......


..... finished and I just love it - I used up all my scraps of this wonderful range of papers and this is the end result - the base is ivory linen card and I used some of my Martha Stewart punches to give a decorative edge - everything was distressed and inked using Gathered Twigs distress ink - I used some Prima flower and leaves on the front along with some leaves and pearl swirls which were part of my prize from the Ribbon Girl- I have added some ribbon - twine- buttons - pearls - lace - stickles glitter glue and a paper clip along with some photos - this is a picture heavy post lol











I am entering this into the following challenges
Creative Moments - Buttons and Bows
Crafty Cardmakers - Vintage Love
Crafty Katz Challenge - Anything but a Square
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
