KRAFT IT UP CHALLENGE ~ VINTAGE

Hello my scrappy friends,

Today I have been working on my layout for my class this weekend, but last week I received a message from Leanne  saying I had to do the challenge for  Kraft It Up  this month, as the challenge is Vintage/Heritage ( which you may have noticed I am quite partial to ), and Leanne said she would be checking, so I am to scared not to ! lol , But seriously thanks for the heads up Leanne, as I really do love doing Heritage Pages
The gorgeous brass flower and leaf is from Paper Stories  and I have added some gold paint also from Paper Stories


Lots of layers  and muslin and lace



The Vintage stamp is from Craftqueen  The PP is the new Kaiser Range Miss Empire , perfect for Heritage layouts


I love this photo. Not sure who the lady is on the end ( will have to see if a relative knows ) But then there is my Grandmother ~ Ma, My Uncle Croppie ( Alf) , his wife  Auntie Vera , My Aunty Nanie (Philomena) and Pa my Grandfather ~ This is on my mothers side. Funny how we give them nicknames and it becomes more their name than their name IYKWIM. I have tucked a tag in the top of the layout with journalling.
Anyway thank you for dropping by
Have yourselves a wonderful week
Love and Peace
Mary x
