Tanya, our PH guru, has a listing on her blog of all the projects; this can be found at http://scrappinkymomma.blogspot.com/ so please check them out and drop a love note for each designer!
Mama LoveBug is up first. I love those La-La Land stamps so I knew my project had to include one - a saluting girl with colored pencils and gel pen accents plus Pink By Design sentiments w/gold embossing and some lovely patriotic paper from DCWV, This is a Memorial Day pocket card and like the sentiments say - Home of the Free because of the Brave ....Whenever I see the flag I think of YOU........my dad, Staff Sgt. William G Pattison, US Army Air Corps, WWII Veteran.
Hello Everyone!! For my project I made a layout of my Grandpa- Staff Sgt. William G Pattison, US Army Air Corps, WWII Veteran! I had a hard time with this one as in just a few weeks it will be 5 years since we had to say good-bye to him. He was one of the best men I have ever met....Honest, Brave, Hard-working, Loving...just one heck of a guy. I love my grandpa and I miss him so much. So to honor him I made this layout...
Full View...Isn't he handsome in his uniform???
Close up of the smaller pics. 1st on is a ship that my husband bought for my grandpa when he was in the hospital shortly before he passed away. The 2nd is the flag and American Eagle that were on the corner of his casket and the 3rd is of the bullet from the gun salute at his funeral.
Close up of the name/date banners and the quilt effect "My Hero"
Close up of the flowers...I put the pearls in the centers to add a bit of my grandma to it...She loves pearls! :)
Thank you Tanya for making this our project for this week! I had a great time making this and remembering my Grandpa (My Hero) and what a wonderful man he was!
Bug Hugs,

Oh Kim - This is so dynamic on so many levels - obviously we're partial to WGP but he was truly the best of fathers and grandfathers! Your LO is so unique and well-planned with a variety of embellies that suit the man and the LO.......I can almost hear him saying, girls, anyone for some "cosmopolitan" ice cream!
Both of you ladies did an outstanding job with your projects! Mama Lovebug, your pocket card is beautiful as always and I love the sentiment, it's just so true! Kimi, your layout is wonderful. I think it's great that you did this layout and it would look gorgeous in a shadowbox! :) Love you both and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
