This is a stunning memory page. I love the old homestead photo as a background. Your collection of vintage photos really makes it into a very special page...a tribute to your mother and family. Wonderful LO.

Stunning is right!! Love the caption "little did we know" and the positioning of the photos over the BG of the house. I hope scrapping some of these pictures is therapeutic for you.

Yup, I think we all agree: stunning!

Beautiful photos and I love the poem. I love your whole page, in fact.

This is truly lovely Kelly and so full of emotion and memory I can feel it from your page. Happy Birthday to your Mom and hopes to you for peace in your memories. xo

I love the sepia you used, it feels like a dream and it's very touching.

This is just lovely, the photos over the big farm house and so heart touching.

Yes - we do agree. Your page is beautiful, because of the vintage photos, the way you presented them and the reflective journaling. I can't know what you've learned, but I can deduce that your mother's early life seemed to be happy. I hope scrapping them gives you peace.

This is lovely! Great photos, and I love your journalling. I love the artsy feel to this along with the vintage photos. Beautiful.

I have a soft spot for heritage photos and layouts. This is a wonderful house. Your layout is inspirational and I like the description you wrote. Great job putting this together.
