Whats Up Crafty? - A gift for my mother.

 

Hello everyone. Sorry this is a little late. I had to put a few little

finishing touches on it. This is a mini photo album I have made

for my mother for Mothers Day. My mother is a very special 

person in my life. She is very sick and I just adore every thing 

about her and every minute I get to spend with her. With Mothers

Day just being around the corner I knew this would be the one 

thing I wanted to share with you all. For me the beautiful angle

on the front (from Kaiser Craft) represents and angle to look after

my mother. For those times when I can't be there.

 

Some of the things I have used for this Off The Page album are 

from Kaiser Craft. It has been made with one of their timber 

projects and I have covered it with their papers and also used

Kaiser bling, pearls, collectables and basic rub-ons.

 

This is the second page and as you can see they are very

old photos as my mother is now 70 and she is very limited

to her photos. My mother was born in Holland and these 

two photos were taken with her mother (Oma) and father

(Opa). Even though not very clear I know she is going to 

love this page.

 

Some of the other things I have used on this album are

flowers from Scraptopia, Colorbok Memory craft stickers

and Maya Road patterned papers.

 

This photo of my mother I can remember being taken. I was

only you and at the time my dad was taking lots of photos of

all my family and developing them himself. I just love this 

photo of her she was so happy. 

 

The ornamental oval frame is from Cre8tive and the

flowers are from Portacraft.  My mother just loves

daffodils. Other Cre8tive products I used were 

textured boarders, run-on Icons and alphabets.

 

The photos of this last page haven't come up as good as I wanted.

I will have another go in a couple of days and see if I can get them 

just a little better than this. Sorry. 

This photo was taken of my mother when dad and her went traveling

around Australia for 6 months. They just loved it. Mum come home 

so healthy, relaxed and sporting a great tan. This was a fish she caught

herself and said it was so yummy. She also told dad to hurry with the

photo as the fish was getting heavy. 

 

Well I hope you have enjoyed my What's Up Crafty? I also hope

you have enjoyed seeing my beautiful mother/grandmother 

to my two boys.I'm sure from time to time if you pop on over 

to my blog you will get to see more of her. Mothers are such 

special people. I hope all the Mothers out there get to spend the 

day with their beautiful mothers like I will be and my boys with me.
