Long Day

Today’s page shows a couple of photos from our long drive from Brisbane to Yeppoon. We took Mum and Dad away for a break. My Mum has Dementia and we wanted to give my Dad a break from all the mundane daily tasks. We were blessed with a lovely day, no rain and not too hot. I attached a piece of Boughs of Holly 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper down the left hand side of a Basic White 12″ x 12″ page. I stamped the palm leaf image from the retired Sale-A-Bration stamp set Island Vibes across a strip of Old Olive card using Old Olive ink.

I attached the stamped Old Olive card to the page beneath the photo on the left. I stamped the same palm leaf image twice onto Basic White card using Old Olive ink and cut them out. I attached the images to the right hand side of the page, slightly overlapping them before attaching the two photos on the right. The photo at the top was taken during our lunch stop and I attached this photo to scored and folded Soft Suede card. I added my journaling to the inside of the panel before attaching it to the page. I printed the title onto Basic White card and cut it out before attaching it to the right hand side of the page. With my Dad being 91 and my Mum 86, I am not sure how many more of these trips we will be able to have, so the memories this page brings are very special.
Bye for now,
Kris
