I cut out images from the patterned paper, cut apart stickers from the die cut sheet, and cut apart some 7Gypsies tags for the collage at the bottom of this layout. The flowers were the perfect color, but they were feeling too large, so I trimmed them down with scissors, and I love how they have a straight edge on them now.

Journaling reads:
"The kids practice their dining manners at the restaurant next to the Biltmore. It was the grooming stables converted over...so pretty inside...great breads and lots of produce straight from Vanderbilt's own working farm. June 2008"

"I loved the 7Gypsies Tags...I deconstructed them by cutting what I wanted out of them, and then I machine stitched them with black sewing thread."
