Grief


I created this layout for the Papermaze blog last month and found it really cathartic to create. While the photo is of my partner Ed playing the last post on Remembrance Sunday at the Coventry Memorial, the journalling is actually about the way I felt in November this year soon after the death of my Grandad when the memorial services were taking place. The paper was perfect for it, as the flowers had a look of poppies about them and the red and brown tones were very autumnal. I created my own 'lace' cardstock by cutting round the design and layering it up on foam pads. I was really pleased with the finished result - if you want step by step instructions they are on the Scrap Paper Scissors blog.

Today I finished a page for Scrapbook Inspirations - my mojo is definitely working again...
