May Queen

My second layout for the August Scrapology Design Team was this photo of Rhoda Lily Edwards when she was a May Queen. 


I picked two papers from Bo Bunny's Gabrielle Collection - Promenade and Unwritten



I gutted, tore, inked and screwed up, distressing in as many ways as possible! Making several layers using both sides of the papers for contrast. Then I added embellishments from my stash. These included a selection of blossoms, flat backed pearls and gems, charms, ribbon, ribbon roses, paper roses, brads, letter stickers and chalk inks - then I just had fun!

The photo is my mother in law, think it was taken in 1919.
