Oh I love it..so special! I have a little tin full of coins that we have put away, etc. I'm not sure I know where they all came from but I hope to pass them on someday.
What a treasure to pass down to you and your family. I wish my family would have been more sentimental about things like that. I know I am. Lord help my grandkids.LOL!!! They have to have an extra bedroom for the stuff I'm passing on.
Your LO is absolutely beautiful!!!! Or are you making it a shadow box? that would be awesome. i have some old tatted purses that I put in a shadow box to display.
What a treasure. It was fun to read the story behind the purse and coins and even more fun to learn how much the sentiment means to you. Great job creating this tribute to your heritage.
Beautiful! I love the flowers and lace -- and how brilliant was it to put the objects on the pp to take the photo?!! I often have to photograph things that are too big or bulky to include on a LO - and I love the idea to use the pp for the photo background!
This was made for the week long challenge for NSD. The little metal purse and two coins were placed on a piece of Mama Razzie Bo Bunny Press paper when I took the picture. They are an Heirloom from my Grandmother given to her by her Grandmother. The journaling reads: "This little metal purse and two Indian-head pennies was given to me by my Grandma Weese, It was given to her by her Grandma Hudgpath. The pennies were the original two given to her with the purse when she was a little girl. It was so dear to her heart that she decided to pass it on and make it an heirloom. I was instructed to give to a grand daughter in the future, Whenever I hold the purse ut reminds me that her hands held it since she was little."
To make this layout more distressed I tore and rubbed and chalked all I could.
