My Title Reads: A Solider's Story, The Story no one will know.
1 I can see that he has a uniform on but I have know idea what it was for.
2 I do not know what he was doing or where he was going.
3 I can see a house and a picket fence in the background, but do not know the location of it.
4 What I do know is, this is my Great Grandad, someone I called Pop. Someone who came to
dinner and always brought as a bag of boiled lollies.
5 Someone who's face was a little scratchy when he hugged and kissed us. He is someone that
was definitely loved and and is always dearly missed.
So if you are still reading and I suppose even if its only one person who made it this far I hope this has sparked enough interest to really journal on you page this week, and if it does let me know so that I don't miss out on reading your journalling.
Products used: Simple Stories, Bo-Bunny Scenic Route papers, Bo Bunny Alphas, Echo Park Stickers, MM Journalling block, Basic Grey Alphas, Kaiser Metal, Maya Blooms, 7Gypsy Ribbon, Twine.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful layout and I love your journaling! Tx
ReplyDeleteFi, I was taken at the instant I saw the layout pop up on my screen. There is something so very compelling about your grand dad in his uniform. The colours and your design make it seem as if he is speaking from the page to...us? to you? And I love the journaling - it really brings his personality and his mystery (everybody has a little mystery) to light.
ReplyDeleteLove. Love. Love. Love that picture. Love the exquisite design. But I especially love your journaling.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I have admired many of your pages from your design work at Creative Scrappers. Your work is very inspiring. So, I nominated you for the Liesbster award...check it out on my blog (www.roxolsenprojects.blogspot.com)
ReplyDeleteLove what you've done with the colors! Just fab!
ReplyDeletePlease research your family! There's a genealogy group near you that will guide you to find out the rest of the story. Love your work.
ReplyDeleteHi, thanks for dropping by and leaving not just a lovelly comment but also the suggestion I really must get on and do that, so thanks for the reminder.
