I took this photo at my step daughter wedding in 2009. I had to chase her backside around for quite a while in order to get her to stand still. Talk about an annoying stepmom...hahaha.

This was created as part of a challenge using a lift from "Such A Wonderful Mess" . She is a most amazing artist and pushed me to try some lacing. Check her out if you get a chance....her stuff is just WOW.

The paper is from the August Swilydoos kit, Shabby Ambition using the IOD Beloved paper line.
I almost forgot to mention that the note paper on the matting - the book page....came from one of our kits as well, and my stepdaughter is getting her Masters in Literature and got married on June 26th. The title at the top of the page says "Chapter 26" so I guess I am trying to rationalize why I picked that piece to use as a layer.

I also used the Dusty Attic chandelier and painted/stickled it.
Thanks for looking.
