The MotherLOAD Marathon: Days 20 & 21
Day 20 was to scrap emotion. I could have gone with a rehash of this, but instead, I chose this ...... not your obvious shot of emotion, I know. But when I look at this photo I see contentment and patience from DS and I remember the thankfulness I felt while standing in a supermarket … Continue reading The MotherLOAD Marathon: Days 20 & 21
The MotherLOAD Marathon: Days 18 & 19
Day 18 was to scrap using this colour combo ...... and here's my response.

The MotherLOAD Marathon: Day 15
Day 15 was a biggie for me ~ scrap the 'bad stuff'. Lain showcased a page she'd made about her parents and her mother's Alzheimer's and it really reached out to me. The layout below is one that I've had in my mind since April, I just didn't know where to go with it or how … Continue reading The MotherLOAD Marathon: Day 15
The MotherLOAD Marathon: Day 14
Day 14 and it's on to stamping. Something that I very rarely do, probably because 9 times out of 10, I cock it up. In order to keep things simple, and therefore less chance of the aforementioned cock up, I stamped just the title and a few sentiments.
