Creating heritage pages and vintage designs is one of my favourite styles of scrapbooking.
FabScraps was perfect to use for this layout "Farm Girls," featuring a photo of my mom and her cousin in the farm yard. Why are they wearing pretty white dresses and playing outside?? It's probably Sunday!
I used The Crafter's Workshop chicken wire stencil and Stephanie Barnard/Clearsnap black spray on the background paper.

| The title was cut with a Cricut. |
The crocheted doily was bought at a garage sale last summer.
I coloured the chipboard elements with inks.
My next layout is made with beautiful Melissa Frances products....
To make this flower, I just covered a chipboard circle with liquid adhesive and wound the ribbon around. Then I added a pretty pearl bling centre.
This last layout was designed with the gorgeous Graphic 45 "A Ladies Diary" collection....
My mom's 27th birthday! Love her dress.
Here are some close-ups.

Happy belated birthday, Kelly! Your friend made you the most amazing gift - the kind from her heart. I love all three of your layouts. The first one is so beautiful, and the photo of your mom and her cousin is a real treasure. You made it even more of a treasure by scrapping it to perfection. What a fun title.
