Sleeping beauty

Sometimes you can not believe your luck.....my daughter was never one to sleep in the day and here she is asleep on the couch
 I have used a stampin up punch to cut out the binder edge and gave it an aged look with some brown chalk and ink. The " envelope" is made from a piece of paper with a flap cut out separately. I cut a wee circle out and popped in a brad with a hole in it (sorry don't know it's real name) A little bit of colour was rubbed on the edge of the circle and edge of the envelope.
The brown font is a Creative memories sticker font . The little scroll was cut out using the cuttle bug and bosskut stencil. I added colour to the edges so tht it was in keeping with the rest of the page. A little heart badge is from a set by Pink Paislee  called "Sweetness'. The flower is from my stash. I used this gorgeous thistle motive from a 6x6 page by 7 gypsies "conservatory".

The 7gypsies pad has mixed pages with combinations of eggs and old writing, butterfiles and thistles, flowery antique wallpaper and flowers  butterflies and worms and so on.... you get the idea I am sure. It is one of my favourite collections!
