Journal page


 

Hi to all, I hope this will be a quick post, spare you all :))

Made this page about an hour ago, its a slight bit warmer here today so I ventured into my back room, it gets so cold you wouldn't believe, anyways, here it is.


Warm shades for the time of year, the images are from some Mintay papers I have had tucked away, like to look at them but dread using, how daft is that. The wording is from my label maker.

That's that then. Below you will see  photo of my parents, today is Mams birthday, 100yrs. she was always the most elegant, smart woman you could wish to meet, always well presented and made my life brighter by just being in it.


I managed to get some flowers and Carla brought the roses she always loved, some years are harder than others, this has been a bad one. I have felt her loss so much, we were the best of friends, no one could ever replace her, and her guidance was priceless, what do you do when someone this wonderful has to leave, well, I remember how lucky I was to be her daughter, in all the good and bad times I may have had, she was there, always had my back. So, happy birthday Joanie, you are and always will be loved and remembered.

Thankyou all so much for your visit, I truly appreciate you all.

Aww Janette, the downside of having the loveliest Mum is how much we miss them when they have gone, hold on to those lovely memories and remember the good times, love and laughter.xxx
Your journal page is fabulous BTW. A cosy cosy feel with the warm autumnal shades and the beautiful images.

Your heartfelt tribute to your mom is truly touching. The warmth in your words and your beautiful page with Mintay papers and label maker sentiment radiates love. Joanie sounds like an incredible person; thank you for sharing her story.

Happy Heavenly Birthday to your dear Mum Janette. What a lovely tribute!! I love your gorgeous journal page and totally understand why you wouldn't want to cut into those fabulous papers....but do it!!! Can't take them with you lol. I am thinking of getting myself one of those label makers. I had one years ago but it stopped working and I never replaced it.

A wonderful journal page, so beautifully created. My mom has been in heaven 25 years now, and I still miss her. I use to talk to her every Saturday and it took years for me to suppress the urge to call her. I love that you pay her special tribute on her birthday.❤️
