Beautiful lo and a fitting tribute to your papa. The distressing and burlap and flowers are all so lovely. He is so handsome. I can empathize with your story too...my grandpa died before I could introduce my son to him.
This is very nice. You did a great page to pay tribute to your grandfather. I like the doilies peaking out from the distressed edges. Adding this to my favorites!
It's a beautiful layout and a wonderful tribute to your grandfather. at least when your son gets older he will see this picture of him and all the love that went into making this layout.
Wonderful, moving tribute to your papa, Cheena! I'm so sorry for your loss, but what a lovely way to preserve his memory so your son will always have his picture to look at. Love the colors and different textures you used here!
My heart is just breaking for your loss-such a touching story. But this is a wonderful tribute to what sounds like a great man. Your flowers and flourishes are just beautiful and I love the music paper-just a fabulous page!
This page is so lovely, How sad that your son and grandfather just missed meeting each other but what a blessing for you and your grandmother to have a wonderful new life to celebrate during such a sad time.
This photo is my grandpa (or papa, as we called him). He passed away 3 yrs ago, this last June. It was very heartbreaking for me because my son was born just a month before. I remember calling my grandparents the day my son was born, telling them they had another great grandson, and that I would be visiting very soon to introduce them to their latest great grandson. Unfortunately, 3 weeks after my son was born, I got very sick from complications of my c-sec, and ended up needing to stay in the hospital for 4 days. 3 days after I was finally home from that, I got a call from my dad with the very sad news. =( So, the first time my grandma got to me my son, was at my grandpa's funeral. I miss him very much and sad that my son never got to meet him.
This was done for the August Round Robin, Week 3 challenge. And also for the ABCs of Motivation, D for distressing.
