I wanted to do a vintage styled LO with this collection so I chose this picture of my parents taken just after then end of WWII. Dad was just home from France, they were young and so in love!
I did some subtle masking in the background with Tim Holtz's burlap mask and bronze Glimmer Mist. The lace was white and it got sprayed with a lot of different colors and painted with white gesso! I just couldn't quite get it be the color I wanted but I'm finally happy with it.
The gorgeous chippies I've used are Creative Embellishments Love Birds Set. I heat embossed the birds with Antiquities Weathered White. Then the birdcage and words are heat embossed with Stampendous aged embossing enamels.
I've use one of my favorite vines here, Prima's Bretton Vine. I wish I have a couple dozen of these vines!! The black diecut around the flowers is a Prima diecut doily that I cut in half and fitted in around the roses. Its kind of a cool look don't you think?
