Treasures


This is my entry for both Saturday Stampers and
4x4 Friday this week.
Over at Saturday Stampers the theme is 'Treasures'
'incorporate something you treasure
into your project for this week'
This is a Photo of my dear mum who sadly lost her battle
with Cancer in 2001 aged only 57. I adore this photo of
her taken in the early 60's, so thought it would be ideal for
this weeks challenge :o)
Over at 4x4 Friday the theme this week is 'Black & White'

Gorgeous artwork Emma. A lovely tribute to your mum.Fits both challenges perfectly. she would be proud of your crafting.

My mum died of cancer in 1974, & my step-mum also died of cancer in 2004. But my Saturday Stamper piece is going to be about my BIL who also died in 2004.
