Framed Beauty by Esther





This layout was planned around the Webster's Pages Framed Beauty cardstock for the page map. The photo is framed by a double die cut shape of floral pattern. Using the Gypsy, I welded two sizes of the decorative shape together so a frame was cut. It was trimmed on the right to allow space for the decorative left side. A piece of shiny silver cardstock was cut to fit the mirror for a reflection. The 5"x7" sepia photo was chosen because the subject is also reflected in a mirror, which carried through out the theme.

The journaling was printed on a solid ivory paper and the top rolled over a Karen Foster page push pin up with Chomper Cloud shaped corners. The title was mounted on a piece of Sunday Afternoon beneath the photo.

A fabric flower was placed at the top of the photo. Chipboard sticker buttons threaded with yarn, a shiny shell Blumethal button, a piece of a doily, silk flower rose leaves and ribbon were added below the mirror. A fabric sticker message "mother" was placed above the florals.
