Subtle Beauty


I used the sketch from Stuck On U Sketches and the challenge from Lasting Memories to celebrate mom, for this layout of my mother. The photos are from the mid 1940s which would put her age at 22 to 25. Also linking this to Link Up Tuesday at Pink Cricut.

  1. This is very striking Vicki! I think it's the great use of BLACK behind those photos. And then the red really gives it all a boost. Love it!! Like how you journaled on the doiley. Thanks Vicki for joining Lasting Memories this week!!
