A Vintage Page

Hi everyone, here's my latest page which I'm entering into sketch 226 over at pencil lines, just in the nick of time as I think submissions close tomorrow.

The Sketch

I have scrapped a very old photograph of my grandparents before they were married so around 1945. My Nan died at the beginning of this year and all these photos have now come to light, she was one for looking forward not dwelling on the past as she had overcome her fair share of tragedies over the years. The only thing is that some of the photos have no date or names on the back so they need researching further.

This is a new style of page for me and I really wanted to try stitching between the patterned papers but it had to be done by hand as we don't own a sewing machine yet! It also made a change to use floral papers, something I don't use much of usually.

I'm pleased how it turned out and hope you like it too x
Thanks for looking :)
