Today

49447ee1-9f01-467d-9f86-fe24553be4f2-2038-000001851df72e6f_tmpHi,I am combining a few challenges with this page featuring a photo of me and my dh taken in 1978. That’s right, nearly 40 years ago. The photo is actually a flap that can be lifted to reveal some hidden journalling. The large pink heart is attached using a brad to allow the page to open.

I was inspired by the red hearts in lovely moodboard from Off the Rails, and  the colour red  and stamping from Challenge YOUrself. I have hand made the cross stitched button using red thread and stamped the large pink heart.

I have also been inspired by the challenge over at Another Freaking Scrappy challenge to use the word “today ” .

I was also influenced by the sketch from Clique Kits.

And also the tic tac toe from Scrap Our Stash. I have used the diagonal from top right to bottom left. Tag, hearts and a doily.
