Pinks and lace and everything girlie! Lesley used the Lace Doily Motifs to create her own lace-like embellishments for this adorable 12 x 12" scrapbook page. She cut her photo with Labels Twenty-One, then matted it with Grand Ovals and Grand Big Scalloped Ovals. Elements from Creative Book Pages Two, Twisted Metal Tags and Accents, and Labels One decorate the page.
