Audrey and Joe

My husband's paternal grandparents

For this layout I used a piece of 7 Dots Studio paper from their Dreamscapes collection.

7 Dots Studio
Dreamscapes - 9mm

I did some stencilling on the background with Dusty Concord Distress Ink using a Clarity stencil brush.

These are the dies I used:

Cheery Lynn Designs Oval Doily Stacker

Cheery Lynn Designs Flourish #13

Prima Forest Leaves

Cheery Lynn Designs Celtic Weave

I layered all of the dies except the small leaves over a black copy, offsetting them slightly to accentuate the edges. For the small leaves, I traced around the edges and veins with a fine-tipped brown marker (Zig Writer).

This is the chipboard piece I used:

Dusty Attic
Fancy Trim #5

I embossed the trim with Stampendous Embossing Enamel in Aged Taupe.

The large flowers are some old Petaloo ones from my stash.  The small pink and purple flowers are by 49 and Market.

Thank you so much for taking a look!
