Bigging it up

I used to scrap with huge photos a lot when I started scrapping.

I think I enjoyed the novelty of being able to print big photos that were high wuality.

It is something I don't do so often now so I was really happy to try the challenge on UKS to use a big big photo.

I decided to scrap a page for my 10 album.

I love my 10 album as it is such a mix of all sorts of things - but each giving 10 reasons or ideas.

This is ten things we will always remember about our day trip to Venice.

 

I deliberately left the 'dead' areas in the photo as I knew I wanted to overlay embellishments on top of it.

 

 

There is a card at the top that pulls out with the 10 things written on (the tab says photos at the top)

 

Today I am thankful for 

 

• seeing our first pair of goldfinches in the garden. They were so very very pretty. I wish they would find the nyger seed as no-one is eating it and I bought it for the finches specially.
• Boo seeming a bit better and wanting to be in the house with the others rather than just the study. She is, however, stillt he worst thief we have ever ever had.

 

I did my father's day tribute the other day, but I did think this was kind of cute

Oh my gosh, Karen! After that cat caper, I don't know if I can keep my face straight to share this poem I found at work yesterday. I thought it was beautiful, and as soon as I read it, I thought of you.

In Our Hearts
by Rose de Leon

We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
And days before that, too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have are memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake
With which we'll never part.
God has you in His keeping,
We have you in our heart.
