China Doll

Here's the second layout I finished this week. Actually, I just finished this one last night. I just found an old stash of Pink Paislee papers recently and decided to use them for this layout. Also taken on the first day of Chinese New Year, the photo is of my younger DD standing at the entrance to our house, in her brand new cheongsam. I matted the photo with a turquoise blue hambly transparency to match the colour of her cheongsam.



The little butterfly on the bottom right of the layout was created by stamping the butterfly using a mixture of black and brown inks, and then outlining it with distress stickles for that vintage look. Fun!
