For my project I decided to make a layout using a photo of me and my sister Pamela, that's me on the left. Sadly Pam died very suddenly about 12 years ago aged 50, looking through my childhood photo's deciding which one to use brought back lots of lovely memories.

Our sponsor for the challenge is Tando Creative.
My layout is 8"x8" and I used a dark pink card and Basic Grey papers. The stamps that I used are by Crafty Individuals and Paper Bag Studio. The dies that I used are Memory Box dies and the letters have been made with the Sizzix/Alterations Chip Block die. I've also used a piece of ribbed kraft card and dry brushed it with white acrylic paint. I added lots of embellishments that I found in my stash.
I'm looking forward to seeing your Childhood Memory creations. The rest of the DT have made some lovely pieces for the challenge, you can see these on the Craft-Room Challenge Blog.
Lovely LO, and a nice tribute to your sister, sorry you lost her! Valerie

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tribute to your sister, Hazel. I love your embellishments - something I'm not very good with - the remember banner is fab.
ReplyDeleteA lovely way to show your precious memories of your sister. The detailing is perfect. Wishes, Suzanne x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Hazel. Love the colours you have used, but sorry to hear you lost your sister. As we say about my dad - they take the great ones early as they are needed elsewhere more.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about childhood a lot lately too. I love the memories documenting old photo's brings and they seem to trigger off numerous other events.
Wonderful page and what a lovely way to remember your sister, beautiful details too :0) Gay x
ReplyDeleteHazel, I just adore this! My sister was here to help me celebrate my son's wedding. Your creation fits so well with my childhood memories!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm sorry that your memories of your sister were cut short with her unexpected death. This is a beautiful tribute!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful, Hazel - such lovely images and the pinks are wonderful x
ReplyDeleteHi Hazel, first of all so sorry for the delay in commenting, the wedding plans are now taking over, only 5 days off now !!!!!!! I adore your beautiful vintage feel layout. Your photo is just so lovely of you and your sister, and so sorry she died so young, life can be so very cruel sometimes. I can't believe you had the same swimsuit as me in my picture. I have been trying so hard to remember the colour, and I have a feeling that is was blue, but could be wrong. Sadly both my mum and dad are no longer with us, so nobody to ask. Julia xxxx
ReplyDeleteA beautiful layout: the colours and images are just wonderful, and the photograph of you and your sister is just lovely. I'm sure she would have loved this, and it's a beautiful tribute to your sisterhood.
