I tried my hand, for the first time, at a canvas layout. I am so proud of this one! It's actually a kit from CTMH and I've had it sitting on my desk for a couple months, waiting for inspiration to bonk me in the forehead lol and it did on the wknd. A yr ago this past April, my grandma passed - she was almost 92, so lived an amazing life - still doesn't make it easy though, does it. So this is a tribute to her. I love this photo of her. She looked so vibrant and happy! I added the yellow rose as that was her favourite colour rose and that was what we had at her committal service. I'm proud of this piece and I know she certainly would be too!! I'm sure she heard me cursing, just a teeny bit, at those rhinestones and she would have had a good laugh for sure! But I did it!! I didn't have to throw them out! Yay me!!! LOL!
Thank you so much for stopping by!

What an incredible memory of your Grandma! Now you will have her grinning at you with her favorite rose next to her anytime you want to look! And it will always make you smile! This will be a keepsake for your family too. Thank you for letting us share your project and your memories in the “Any Sentiment” Challenge at Aud Sentiments.
