Echo of Love-Scrapbook layout

Another of my layouts using the AB Studio Enchanted Flowers papers 
from Thompsons craft supplies.
Echo of love 
this is a very special photo, well they all are but.....there should have had another taking part, this is my husband, my son and my grandson, taken at my sons wedding last year, it should have had my father in law in it too so 4 generations but we lost him two weeks before the wedding. don't wait folks if you are planning on doing these photos please don't hang around.

it took an age to find a title for this, i was thinking about it all night, i have a method i use to see how things look before sticking them down, when i am quilting i look through a door spy glass, when i am scrapping i look through a camera, so i layered it all up and then looked through the camera, still pondering about the title, i hadnt yet cut off the cardstock info strip and there was the echo of love, the name of the paper, it jumped out at me straight away.


i didn't want to over crowd this one, so just a little bit of embellishing, wanted to keep the focal point the photo rather than the embellishments.


so a bit of stenciling on the 12x12 , some distressed and inked background layered papers, some mdf cogs, not coloured, some of the fab new finabair metal leaves and a pretty gets gritty flower that has been coloured
