Leafdays

When I first started paper-crafting, I had a passion for photo montages. I’d stick Niccolo’s head on a Victorian boy or one of Raphael’s angels and turn them into cards with gusto. It had been a while since I last did that, but last week I came across an image of a Victorian baby girl which I could not pass up. It just screamed at me to be montaged with Caterina’s face and set against a pretty floral background.

And since I also wanted to use a stamp with it, I decided to give it a square shape and use it for Wednesday Stamper‘s latest challenge. I am conscious it is no great artwork—but it was a heck of a lot of fun to make.
