Eternal Love...

As a member of the Spellbinders Paper Arts design team, one of our monthly projects is to create a scrapbook page. Most of you know me as a card maker, but I have fallen in love with scrapbooking! I decided that my first page would center around pictures of my parents when they first met and their lifetime of eternal love. It took me quite a bit of time to create this page due to the fact that both of them have joined God in heaven. Through bouts of tears, memories and heartache, missing them so, I hope I was able to due justice to their love. Today would have been my daddy's birthday, so I give this gift to both of them. LYTAM Daddy and Mom. I miss you so. (You can see this page in the Idea Gallery HERE)

I still miss them greatly too but one day they will all be standing...waiting to welcome us all home again! Thank you for sharing this quietly beautiful page from your life...we both had the best :)

  9. This is NOT a scrapbook page. This needs to be mounted and hung on a wall for all to see!
