That is so wonderful and I"m glad you found inspiration to journal! Really like how you used red white and blue flowers and other embellishments to pull together the patriotic feeling. This LO is so wonderful and all the elements compliment each other. So much to look at, but so beautiful and nicely done!
Wow - what a lot you incorporated in your layout. Every embellishment represents something special. What a lovely story about your Dad. Sweet, special memories.
Wow this is really gorgeous, so creative! LOVE the circle elements and the scallop around the one circle.. Enjoyed reading about your fond memories of your daddy too! Great work, FAVE

I love these colours/pp's/embellies.......they go together beautifully! from one 'non journaler' to another....you did great! such an interesting & fabulous layout! love it!
I just love this pic of my Dad!!! I NEVER journal but just had to this time. There's a hidden tag (got a little carried away with the fibers!) tucked behind the right side of the pic & reads: "This photo of my Dad, Philippe Bernier, was taken in Packwood, WA in 1971 & it says so very much about him. He made his dream come true when he moved us all from Quebec to the USA in 1958. I just love how he's looking at the American flag & there are 2 of his favorite hobbies represented in the photo, cars & camping. He restored this 1956 Ford pick up & put a 429 V8 motor in it along with an automatic transmission, power steering & power brakes. He loved camping too & you can see the flag is mounted on the travel trailer. I have so many great memories of camping as a child & he took us as much as possible during the summers. In this photo he's wearing the coverall's he always wore to work at the Packwood Lumber Company where he worked as a saw filer. The mill is pictured in the background so as you can see it was just a short walk for him. " Kinda long winded for a girl who never journal's, huh? Anyway, I added a little Jolee's house on this because we actually lived on the mill property. Thanks Chipboard Queen for the Jolee's USA embellie! I made some of the pebbles (flower & star centers) using scraps from the Webster's pp I used (the lady bugs & tiny blossom). Thanks so much for looking & have a great day!!!
