I Loved Her First

 

 

Sometimes, when I know what I want to do with a LO, I don't̕ have the tools! I always love going to crop because you have an ʼextendedʼsupplyʼat your fingertips! I wanted to crimp or disress this paper. As some point I remembered a tutorial on Splitcoast about how to roll up your edges. I thought that would be a fair compromise. This technique looks cool at the corner of your page, surrounding a photo as a frame or around you journaling. Anyways I went about that and it helped me complete the page. I am going to sit with it for a while as I may have to extend the curls farther along the page. This page meets Practical Scrappers challenge to use die cuts.
