Life Lessons

Here's a layout I did using some beautiful papers from Simple Stories' Generations collection, along with Dusty Attic's gorgeous chipboard pieces.

I applied distress embossing powder to the chipboard pieces, and then layered this over with distress stickles applied in strategic areas, to give them just the right amount of texture and sparkle.

Here are more close-ups. I also added stickles to the flower centres for some added sparkle.

Thanks so much for dropping by! :)
