Here is my project:
I chose a picture from my grandparents' 25th Wedding Anniversary to scrap. All of my grandparents' have passed, but I have many memories of them to hold on to. I know I will see them again one day in heaven. The main patterned paper, photo mat, and title- Cherish are all from Colorbok Signature Paper Family 12 x 12 in Double Sided Paper Pad. I wanted to add a little embellishment, but not too much so I added the word love- Hampton Art Jillibean Soup Wood Veneer Words Today set. I typed my journaling out on my computer- Four generations of love. This picture was taken at Papa and Grandmama James' 25th Wedding Anniversary- August 20,1978. From left to right is me in my dad's arms, my Great Grandmama and Great Granddaddy Futrell- my grandmama's parents, my mom holding Emily- my sister, and my Grandmama James. I was just 2 and Emily was 7 weeks old.
My Papa died in 2004 and my Grandmama remarried in 2012 to Mr. Raffael Farrow. They had 5 years of marriage together before she died this past April. My great-grandparents passed a week apart in 1993. My parents divorced in 1999 and my mom remarried in 2001 to Mr. Ray Bowles. That's all I have to share today. Your next stop is Sue and I'm sure she has something awesome to share!
