love the layers and the punchwork - your story makes those flowers so special- I recently lost my mom and am still reflecting back on things- good you have this to treasure her memory
Beautiful job including the pressed flowers. I have lily of the valley in my yard too from my mom. They are one of my favorite flowers - and are so expensive so it's nice to grow my own.
What a great idea for a page. I love your distressing. My mom almost died in July of '76 when I was 15! I never realized you lost your mom at such an important age. Hugs sweetie!
Wow! Love the distressed edges on the background paper and the all the punching details on the mats is beautiful! Lovely color and fantastic story with your photos. SO special!!!
What a fabulous page and sooo beautifully done! LOVE how you added the actual clippings of the plants! What a great story and so cool that you're able to continue growing these plants so many years later!
wonderful story, amazing that the flowers are still going strong, you must be a good gardener!! Love the layers and the distressing, love the vintage photo, great job
- ok, I noticed I spelled lilies wrong- completed for three challenges: week 3 One Month at a time: 1)Picture of your mother or family member. My mother passed away when I was 15 in June of 1976, so it's hard to find dated pictures, so I took a picture of my Lillies of the Valley. My dad built the house I grew up in 1965 and my mom's favorite flower was Lily of the Valley, which has become my favorite flower. After my father died in 2004, I dug up a couple of the lilies and Verbena and planted at my house since I didn't have any perennials. Seven years later, they're finally spreading out. These plants have been growing for over 45 years. And as long as they bloom, I will always have a part of my mom. 2)5 word title 3)primary pastel color color 4)incorporate one non-scrapbooking item - in teh bottom rt hand corner, I ironed a l-o-t-v and verbena between waxed paper Monochrome challenge: Carnation with the twist - Stop and smell the flowers
