Style - March Swirlydoos RR entry

Yikes, time has been flying!  I didn't do many LOs in March but the few that I did do were for various things and couldn't be shown at the time I completed them.  Anyway, I did this one of Mom and Dad sometime in March.  I love the photo though it was badly damaged.  I repaired it as best I could in PSE and it looks ok.  I think it is what is called a "walking" photo which was a popular photo style back then.   I know this only because my Swirly sister Joyce had a wonder ful walking picture and educated us about them.  I have to remembe to ask Mom and Dad where this picture was taken.  I wonder if it was in Europe as that's where many walking pictures were taken.

So I used the new Prima Moulin Rouge collection for this and I love how it turned out.  Must say that I've had a hard time with those papers - just hasn't worked to well for me, but I do love this.   Because this is a scraplift of the person in front of me in the Round Robin, I got out the sewing machine and did the stitching.  I so don't like to sew!!  However, I do think its a very effective look on a layout and I really should do it more often!!
