Show us your stuff

My cousin Pat gave me a copy of this old photo taken during the war, in Sydney.It is of her parents possibly going to get married.Nobody is sure. I inked or misted book pages using a negative chipboard of the butterflies in pink,blue and red.This reminded me of the typewriter in the challenge picture.At the same time I misted 3 butterflies.The photo was mounted on a doiley cut in half(handmade).The journalling is within a slide mount frame.The lovebirds and flowers top left are fussy cut.I've also added a braid featuring 3 love knots to go with the theme.
