Gift for my Aunt ~





This is a layout I did for my Aunt as a wedding gift that I am going to put in a shadow box as soon as I find the right one. I was going to make her a scrapbook but she went online and made herself a digital scrapbook. I know they are not the same, but I decided to make this so she can always have it in sight and she would not have to pull out 2 big books with similar photos in it to show everyone. This can be hung on the wall or put on a shelf for all to see all the time. I did the photos in sepia with a soft focus (they aren't blurry). Her wedding was in Oct so her colors were that off fall & her home is all neutrals, so this will work well anywhere she decides to put it.
I hope she likes it, I love the way it turned out. I would love to hear what you all think of it.
I am also going to enter it into Sketches in Thyme's first challenge.

(well I didn't get to enter it due to some error on the linky thingy saying that the collection was closed several hours earlier than it should have been closed)

  4. Thanks for linking to us. The inlink closed early, don't know why....I'll have to check on that. I love your entry! Your take on the sketch is just gorgeous! This is exactly how I imagine wedding photos to be scrapped with all the lace, flowers and pearls! I love it!!!!!
    Thanks again for playing at Sketches in Thyme.
    Blessings,
