this is really great! I love seeing others memorial pages because you can feel the love behind them..I go through so many emotions when Im working on mine..laughing one minute, crying the next.. what a great tribute to your sister.
Oh my gosh, this looks like it's straight out of Legacy!!! You can tell a lot of time and love went into it right away. Definitely an gorgeous modern heirloom piece -- just beautiful!!
Beautiful. I really like the green color scheme with just hints of contrast. I'm glad you journaled about your creative process too. It's nice to know someone else can spend an entire weekend on one layout. LOL. But the results were worth it. You put in great elements--love the crocheted doily and stick pin. It flows really nicely. And of course, I'm partial to the subject because my sister is my best friend too.

This is a layout of my best friend. It took me all weekend and then some to get it done, but I’m happy with how it turned out and amazed at how it made me feel. It was very therapeutic for me. There is hidden journaling that I struggled with where to put it. It’s very lengthy and I knew it was going to have to be folded to ever get it on the page. I tried to put it under the main pic, but that didn’t cover it. So it went under the mat & folded it into 3rds. Smaller journaling is tucked behind the lower pic.
The smaller pic was taken with b/w film and had gotten a little discolored over the years from being in the old album. I scanned it in and remade it b/w. That cleared it right up. Then I turned it antique. I did the same with the larger pic, which was originally in color. I thought it was way too colorful for this page.
There are some shadows thrown from the scan. That happens every time I have any shiny metal on a page.
