SKETCHES WITH A TWIST CHALLENGE

Hello lovely people,

I really liked the challenge over at Sketches with a Twist 



The Sketch  and the Twist to do a layout relating to Mothers. 
I have scrapped pictures of Mum and I on Mothers Day last year, and sadly Mum is no longer with us, so My first Mothers Day without her is making me feel sad, BUT  enough of that.
I love it when a layout comes together easily and for some reason this did for me. 
I think the Collectables that come with the new ranges of Kaiser Papers make it so easy.
The base Is "On this day Range, the Lace top is "Needle and Thread " Range .
Layering the collectables flowers 
Love how my banners turned out. The little brass latch is from Marally Craft 

The delicate little flowers are from Craftqueen  and the Remember word is from Scrapmatts, ( I really love the words, they are just the perfect addition to a layout )


Thank you for calling by, please let me know you were here.
Nearly Friday :)
Don't forget the challenges over at Orange Paperie and Colour Me Scrappy
Love and Sunshine
Mary x

Mary I have to say I have a huge lump in my throat as I read this post - at least you've created a beautiful page to remember such a gorgeous mum - take care this Sunday and enjoy your day as a mum.

I'm in the same boat as you Mary as Mum died last August.When ERica gave me an early gift for M.Day I just cried.
I love your layout.The flowers add a special touch.
