In Memory Layout

Today's post is in honor of someone very special, my husband's Grandmother who left us in the wee hours this morning.


Grandma loved to look pretty, and would often sing bits of that song, "I am pretty oh so pretty".
Always wanted her earrings and jewelry on. Great dry wit and great sense of humor, wonderful cook.
The background is a wordle and states a few words that remind me of her. She loved candy, I forgot to add that to the wording so I may add a nice chocolate candy embellishment. I didn't want to stamp or use a lot of patterned paper, I wanted to see the words that reminded me of her.
Close to My Heart Blooms, cd font, and cardstocks.
We love you Grandma and you left us with wonderful memories.

Memory Accordian Album


This is a gift for a special friend who lost her husband a few weeks before Thanksgiving. A wonderful man. We had the pleasure of spending time with them about a month prior.

I wanted to make something special, but smaller that she could carry with her in a purse or set out if she liked. I did not over embellish as I wanted her to have room to add photos she holds dear, or special journaling.

Papers are Rusty Pickle, ribbons, inks, font are Close To My Heart.
The cover reads "Your memory strings from heaven and attaches to my heart"
The last page "You have opened the music in my heart"
Love you Julie!
