2015

Wow it is hard to believe that this is my first post of 2015, and that I have not blogged since October last year !

Well I thoroughly enjoyed making this layout of a photo taken at my parents wedding in 1959. This is of my Nana in the front centre and my Grandma back left . Way in the background you can see my Mom and Dad. 
I have  used the mood board at Scrap Around the World as inspiration as well as the Berry71bleu challenge which is "things with wings"  

Both challenge sites have had some great entries so I dashed to get 
mine done before the deadline!

I have used the keys, flowers, frames and the general vintage feel of the mood board in my layout. I have also included birds and butterflies as my things with wings. 
I purchased a few flairs and have used my first one here, it says hope which was my Moms maiden name !

Hope you like it !
