Vintage Paper Lace
I have used the paper lace frame from yesterday before, but when working on it this time, I realized it would also be so pretty broken into pieces! For digital scrapbooking, or maybe even to print out and make your own paper tape, I'm considering making a ready made printable sheet, please let me know… Continue reading Vintage Paper Lace
A Rose From You – Digital Collage
I can't draw! At all, so badly so, that I also can barely write anything understandable... maybe that is why I tend to sit down with my computer or paper and scissors when I feel creative...lol!

Vintage Baby in Victorian Paper Frame
I have learned sooo much about my family who emigrated to America over 100 years ago, thanks to some of the wonderful readers here on WoW.

But on some of our family pictures… Continue reading Vintage Baby in Victorian Paper Frame
