White with One


This is of my mum Eileen when she was around 19 - 21 years old, quite the pose...
I'm disappointed how the colours show up because they are quite lovely stampin' up papers in a pale grey and white. The large butterfly is from Amy, part of her giveaway I received.
Now for a couple of close-ups of my handmade flowers and stick pin (made by me), the flowers are dark grey sateen fabric given to me by a very close friend.  In real life they are so shiny and look gorgeous, the centres are decorative brads from stampin' up.
 This one is of one of the little trinkets that Amy sent me, I think it's beautiful.
And here's a close-up of the photo.

  1. This is beautiful Sandra, love those rolled flowers and the shimmery effect on them, the photo is gorgeous so wish I had one like that to scrap. The little punched border corners add a touch of elegance to the larger mat. So glad your played and thank you for your lovely comments that you have been leaving on my blog.
