Heritage - For Meg's Garden Design Team


I have really enjoyed using these beautiful papers from Meg's Garden. They were perfect with this vintage photo of my Husband's Grandfather. I used "The Roadster's front seat blanket" for the back ground paper.  The red flowers and swirls were fussy cut from "Take a roadster for a spin" and the vintage roadster was cut from the extra strip of the same paper.  The cream leaves were die cut from the cream centre of that same paper.  Meg's Garden stocks the die;
 it's by Cottage Cutz, Leafy foliage.
