Dad's li'l sun lo- PRESENT FOR MY MOM





This was published in Scrapstreet June 2010 issue and will be back in my blog at 7/1

I did this lo for my mom- using this vintage photo of my dad and my baby sis about 40 years ago. She was and is my Dad's sunshine and they both mean a lot for my mom- so this one is going to be framed and will be a part of my Passover gift for her.

I did some techniques here: hand cut the Webster pages pp, misting, stamping, heat embossing, hand writing and than I just used lots of embells with meaning: the heart card for love, angel - for being both of them my angels,

F coin for Forevermore,yellow heart button for love and missing and my sister lives in USA, vintage chipboard buttons for old days, 2 cute red bugs look on to other just as my Dad and sis on the photo etc. Everything here has some meaning- nothing is just for " looks good"

And I did it for some recent challenges too:

For mom- for Magical crafts-

Sun for Designs dollies-


Something for mom- for Totally gorjuss-

Recipe for Scrap you crap

Recipe for Craftastic- 3+buttons, b/w photo, yellow(heart), bird

Inks- homemade ink mist- for Practical scrappers

Anything goes for Sew many los
Texture - for Scrap and stamp

Spring - for lo item- for By cute and girly
