Funk Ancestors

My great-grandparents with three of their children



For this layout, I used a piece of 7 Dots Studio paper for the background.

These are the Wycinanka chipboard pieces I used:


Paris, Paris - bordery, dwie pary
ROMANCE - ornamenty, wzór 2
ROMANCE - ornamenty, wzór 6

I embossed all the chipboard pieces with Stampendous Aged Ivory embossing enamel.









These are the dies I used:

Flourish #13



I layered most of the diecuts over a black version, offsetting them slightly to accentuate the edges. For the Flourish #13 leaves, I traced around the edges and along the veins with a black marker (Zig Writer).






I added some pieces of natural coloured reindeer moss to the flower clusters.






Here are a couple more close-ups:









Thank you so much for taking a look!
