leather and lace at lasting memories

This weeks challenge is leather and lace.

  I took it quit literally and used black patten leather and lace on my layout, but you could do a layout with a mix of feminine and masculine elements.
 How you interpret the challenge is up to you. 

 Here's what I did  with this sketch from Pamela's world of scrap's

I started by rotating the sketch to suit my photos

Then I add the  leather elements from a broken head band.

love being able to repurpose old items

 

All the papers are CTMH that have been in my stash for over 8 years old
the brads are probably that old too.  Trying to get back on track with using up my stash.

I just realized that my bottom picture on the layout is also a perfect example of the leather and lace feel because you have me in the black and Shannon in the gray sandwiching Kristy and April in the lighter feminine colors.  I guess that's another way to look at the challenge too

Hope you'll join us at lasting memories

I'm also entering this over at Use it Tuesday for anything goes
