As usual I have done lots of fussy cutting and layering......
Our local wool shop sells a really good selection of lace, some of which could probably be classed as antique it has been there so long! If you dig deep there are some great bargains to be had like the thin lace I have used on this page at about 5p a metre!!! I added some around the edge of the white cardstock and to the underneath of the photo mat to soften the edges.
Cutting out all the intricate little details means that when you layer the elements together the page has lots of depth and dimension.
The butterfly is a Websters one that I have scanned and printed off in lots of different sizes.
Stash Used..
Prima Pixie Glen papers and alphabet stickers, Nutmeg AC thickers, Melissa Frances pearls, Websters butterfly (Botanical Christmas papers), lace, adornet number stickers.

Oh wow Rachael, what a gorgeous layout. I bought 6 sheets of the Pixie Glen papers in a sale over Christmas for about 30p each and I've just done two layouts with them, definately not in the same league as your stunning layout though. Lesley
