Jan Monogram Chlg - Louise

Well, I started with this picture and monogram, but I had no idea what I was doing with them until I pulled out this paper, lol. This is my Grandma (Mom's mom), she was so talented and so creative. I wish I'd started scrapbooking before she passed away, because she would have loved it.

I listed down the side all of the things she used to do (and do well): knitting, ceramics, quilting, embroidery, photography, crochet, sewing, baking, cooking, writing, decorating, painting, raising a family, being a Grandma. Instead of looking around for pictures of her work that I would have had to scan and resize to fit on this page, I used embellishments instead, it felt more "fun".

Supplies:
paper - 7Gypsies "Family Documents"
cookie jar, teapot/tea cups, baby boots and baby bonnet, spaghetti meal, playing cards, letters, pin cushion - Jolee's By You
larger cards - Daisy D's
epoxy sticker - Walmart
monogram - Pressed Petals
