First of all this page is fabulous!! Straight to my favs!! Second, I love that Grandpa did so much swing time with the kids. I do that with my grands and looks so forward to that time. I even made up a little song for us to sing when we're on it. My dil told me that they were at a friends one day and my grands were teaching her friends kids the song while they were on a swing. That made me smile!! :)
This is so sweet, love the pretty pps and the great page design - the red stitching really pops on the page... I love that pic of Daddy and my babies (even without the hairbow! LOL!) Every time the kids went down there, any season, that's where I would find them - out on the back porch swinging. We all miss him sooooooo much! Such a sweet, sweet page~!
My Daddy swinging with Sarah and Benjamin (my sister's (kzookeeper) two youngest children). I used MME papers Follow your heart for this layout. The border on the kraft colored paper is purposely crooked, and it totally messed with my mind trying to get my layout on straight! LOL! I cut three large banners to layer behind my photo. The round lacy circle behind the photo was made by cutting about a 6 inch circle and then using one of my corner punches to punch around the edges. Circles on the top left corner were punched with circle punches. I also added two brads from the Follow Your Heart collection. Butterflies were punched with a MS punch, and I added a little glitter and glossy accents to each of them...as well as a red dot of liquid pearls for the body. The title tag and the brown piece backing it was made on the Cameo. I added a couple of lines of red stitching down the side of one of the banner strips. The "unique" scalloped piece on the bottom right was cut from a matching piece of paper and layered over one just like it with pop dots to give it a little dimension. Journaling is tucked behind the photo and reads:
From my earliest memories, swinging with my Daddy (your Grandpa Perdue) was something we all looked forward to at the end of the day. He would always sing to us and keep that swing moving. The tradition carried on to all of our children, and any time we went to visit, there would always be a grandchild or two swinging with Grandpa. Sarah and Benjamin were so lucky to live next door to Grandpa and Grandma….that meant they got LOTS of extra swing time! Just look at the smiles on their faces. We were all so fortunate to have such a loving and fun-loving Daddy and Grandpa!
