Linda, that is so pretty and touching. You did a wonderful job both with the tea bag folding and the layout.

Since I do nearly all of my layouts in digital format, I didn't think I'd be able to participate in this one, but then I thought, "What if I SCAN my tea bag folded frame and add it to my layout?" So, this is what I came up with.
Items Used:
Soft Nostalgia digital paper pack
Bodacious Blooms .svg file
Lace frame (this is the only thing that's not from Paper Wishes)

For the tea bag tiles, I used just the upper corner of the same paper I used for the background. After cutting out the tiles, I inked the edges. The fold is a very simple kite fold with the point folded back on itself. After I put it together, I scanned it and used PaintShopPro to remove the background. The page was created using MyMemories Suite.

I had planned on folding the vines with the green pp from the Roses in Harmony paper pack, but then I found a small piece of handmade olive paper, and fell in love with the texture. Because it was a small scrap I had to hand cut the vines, but I used a Sizzlit die to cut the leaves, and cut pieces to place where I wanted them.
Glad you like it.

Judy, I LOVE the layout!

The paper worked beautifully for the teabag folding.

I went back to double check the article, and the author was Rebecca Ludens. Sorry for the error.

Love the pretty soft c o l o r s for that pretty little girl! Hood idea about scanning the frames - and now you can use them again if you want to!
