Last year I was going to finish one of my scrapbooks and started well and then didn.t do any layouts for months. Si I looked through my scrapbooks and found two are complete and the rest all need finishing. I have started well and over the last couple of days have done 4 layouts so will see if I can continue the good work.
This is me aged 5. Can you imagine a child having bows in her hair like that nowadays. My Dad was into model boats and maned this one after me. I used various papers, MFT stitched ricrac die and a Spellbinders star die.
I found the little doily in a pack I bought in America along with some vintage tickets from Craftwork Cards bought at a show. The kraft words are Tim Holtz. The paper bow is from Hobbycraft and flowers from America. Looking at ideas on Pinterest I realised that pages don't always need a title so this one doesn't have one.

This layout is awesome! You really did an great job! The deep burgundy with the craft makes the picture speak for itself! I absolutely love the picture of you.....the bows are so darn sweet I think!
Who knew when the picture was taken you would marry the man of your dreams that was into boats!!! TEEEHEEE!
It's a beautiful Page Marianne, a lovely layout and design. You were a real cutie at 5 years old, and you're so right, no child would have bows like these nowadays, mind you back in the day little girls looked like little girls, Kate x
My Grandaughters were wearing blue jeans at 10 days old so no, there were no bows in their hair, great layout, lovely photo, the boat is wonderful and you were so cute!..
Luv CHRISSYxx
I had bows like yours in my hair at the same age, but had no boats :D.
Beautiful layout love kraft with those burgundy tones!
A super layout Marianne, at least we looked like children in those days, not like mini adults.
