Maud

This layout is another that I created at the Merly Impressions retreat at the beginning of this month. Chrissy designed the kit using the Kaisercraft Always and Forever collection, together with stitching and much fussy cutting of roses and doilies.

I added my own letter stickers - the glittery American Craft Thickers have been shaded with Distress Inks.

Here is the little history I have discovered about Maud:

Maud Holder (nee Fricker - My Great Aunt by marriage)
Born in July 1886 unknown parents
No Census records found, No marriage records found but married Frank Henry Holder (1888-)

They had two daughters  - Doris born 1923 and Beryl Margaret born 1925

I had to do a lot of restoration work on this photo in Adobe and I am pleased with the results.

Here is Chrissy's pretty layout:

Many thanks for looking, may be some time before I get back to you with my 'beyond the page' projects!!
