csi no.26 - My Siblings

this is my take on this weeks challenge. I have used the bird cage to hold the pictures of my siblings. I have invited you to come and meet them. Their names are written down the page in order of the photo l to r.
I have used gesso to represent snow, i have stamped snow flakes on a clear transparent to form the windows. The grey flowers i have iced them with the gesso. I have also used a grey cown with jewels on it. I have used a metal rake to hold the birdcage and a different shaped fleur-de-lys, and butterflies.I have used scalloped lace at the top and on my journalling tag that is hidden on the left hand side.

Comment by Anna-Karin on July 5, 2012 at 11:01am: Wow Kathleen what a fabulous layout! I LOVE how you framed the photos, what a great idea. Everything else on the layout is just perfect. TFS!

Comment by Elaine Forum Smidt on July 5, 2012 at 12:57am: When I saw your layout in the small picture on the Gallery I immediately thought you had used a "princess carriage" to frame your photos and thought it fitted the "royalty" theme perfectly. And now after reading your description I realize my imagination ran far ahead of me! But cage or carriage I love the idea anyway!! Very original way to show off your pics.
