So Happy - Layout for The Scrapbook Store

For The Scrapbook Store this month, I created a few vintage inspired layouts, this is one of them. The beautiful bordered background piece, was created using a SVG file and the Silhouette Cameo.  Have I said how much I love this machine?  It does everything, except put your layout together!  LOL   
 
The photograph is of my Mum on the far left, with some close family friends.  It was a huge event having visitors and having photographs taken, and Mum especially loved the new dresses, and having her hair done.  In this photograph, she so reminds me of my daughters.
Beautiful dusky pink blooms by Kaisercraft - Paper Blooms and Mini Paper Blooms, enhanced with Green Tara, Stranded Pearls, and gorgeous cream Lace.  I used a couple of items from previous DT kits, as they suited so well.
Lots of hidden journaling areas using Note Cards, and the Journaling and Accent Cards, including the Elements Stickers which were used as pull-tabs.

I aged the edges using the Grid clear stamp, by Kaisercraft. 

 The April sketch is up, you can find all details 'HERE'.  Lots of new products are in Store, and you can view all new products 'HERE'.... don't forget to call into the Gallery to see April's sketch entries, and for further inspiration from the DT.
 Enjoy your day....
Sandie
