Inspired Blueprints

Noel Mignon is sponsoring Inspired Blueprints this month. If you have never been to their website it is awesome! It is chock full of fabulous sketches! And if you are anything like me, the layout is half the battle of a scrap page. Having a sketch makes life so much easier!

In the box of photos my mom gave me, I came across this treasure! It is a photo of my grandparents, aunts, and uncles. My mom thinks it may have been taken at her wedding to my dad. Most of these people are gone now.......so I am so glad I have this photo......

I used Noel's Nightingale kit for this. The only additions from my personal stash were the feathers and the vintage lace. I love the look the feathers give to this! The feathers seem vintage to me......like the feathers that adorned ladies' hats, back in the day......
Head on over to IB and play along! : )
I am back to work today, after a much needed 3 day weekend. Van is going back in the shop tonight for a few days.....ugh! My students start their state tests this week. It is always a bit tedious and boring.....but at least I'll get some grading done! Have a fabulous Tuesday!
