The Kiss

This is another page for my parents wedding album. I’ve called it “The Kiss”. It’s hard to think of our parents as being romantic, but they were. Though I have no memories of ever seeing my father kiss my mother like this, they must have … for they managed to produce 7 children! LOL. I just think this picture is so beautiful, and they are so young and beautiful too. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The chipboard letters were all left overs of different colors so I covered them with paper and sanded them. The chipboard hearts are handmade from left over paper. Even the computer letters are left overs, I have a whole plastic sleeve with letters to use up now. And even the tulle is left over....you won't believe it, but it's from my daughter's veil that I made when she got married 12 years ago... yikes! I've saved all our wedding/reception decorations until the last kid gets married and that will be later on this year! YEA! Then I'll sell them all!

Brief background. My parents were married in 1951. My mother died in 1967, my father died in 1985. I had never even seen my parents wedding photos until last year. Talk about being dysfunctional! So now - some 50 years later – I will attempt to scrap my parent’s photos. It is with a sense of melancholy that I begin this bittersweet endeavor.
