Lovely Lady by KERRY MCINALLY

For my second layout I used the memoir and salutations patterned papers and the Kraft coloured card stock.

I began by cutting the Memoir paper to 10 x 10 inches, and the Salutations paper to 11 x 11 inches. I backed my three photos which were 4 x 4 onto white card stock, I always do this as I think it makes them stand out more.

I tore a thin strip from each edge of both patterned papers, distressed them and then went round the edges with some vintage photo distress ink from my own stash. I layered these papers on top of each other.

I used some pink lace from my stash which I positioned behind my two photos at the top of the Memoir paper and then placed my photos on top using foam.

Then I used a ledger paper banner from the Paperie pieces to the left of my third photo for journaling. I added some lace behind my third photo also and raised it onto some foam.

Next I went through the sticker sheet and added some phrases and words to my photographs, and a leaf washi sticker next to my banner piece. I added the title, ‘lovely lady’ to the left of my third photo, this is the name of the rose, I think?

Finally I found some leaf ribbon in my stash and arranged that across two sides of the craft cardstock.
