Matt three photos and adhere across the page

Add a doily over the top

Cut out two circles, one in card, one in pretty paper, ink the edges

HERES HOW I PUT THESE 4 CHALLENGES TOGETHER

 

First I chose two photos of myself and matted them in one of the colours from the colour combo challenge

Then using the sketch and the colour scheme I chose my pretty paper for the background and lightly adhered my photos

I distressed all the card edges

Next I added the layers using the sketch and the colour scheme

I then started to decorate with assorted flowers, pearls, a tag and the two different washi tapes

I added a wooden title which I left plain.
