NAN - Scraps of Darkness - Victoriana

This layout is of my Grandmother when she was a tiny little girl.
Shes standing beside her fathers car in her little hand me down dress.

I used the Scraps of darkness Victoriana kit and used Bexta76’s layout Courage as my lift sketch, thanks Bex for encouraging me to load it here you rock!. Also a big sisterly love hug to Reneabouquets for her beautiful etsy items, the lavender dress form and flowers and the clock and hands.
the chandelier I fussy cut from the paper in the Scraps of Elegance kit.

it is going to be a birthday present for my Nan and she loves Lavender….

I have called it stopping time.

I have taken the hands of the clock, effectively stopping it, as I don’t want her to age anymore, she’s 86 this year and I love her so much I don’t ever want to be without her counsel or love. a little selfish, but its my Nan.

Shes a sprightly, lively and sometimes crass old duck and her 40 or so Grand kids love her to bits. Although when you jiggle her tuck shop arms, boy can she whack you but good! She’s not above playing cricket, going to the beach And will give you a run for your money in the laughter department. I am in for it when she reads this as well....MWAH Nan....

Joan Harriott – most loved Nanna! EVER!
