I started by embossing brown cardstock with the Modern Wallpaper embossing folder, which I thought was similar to the pattern seen in the cabinet in the background.
When I went searching for papers in the colors of the inspiration photo, I found the Steampunk Debutante Collection by Graphic 45 which also had an image of this lovely lady.
I used this week's Retro Sketch for my layout adding a Unity sentiment from She Sprouted Wings & some KaiserCraft Latte Pearls (one of my favorite colors).
