I'm glad you have a photo that really expresses your dad as you remember him. Close your eyes and step into the photo with him ... and smile. I lost my dad 10 years ago, and I sometimes still do this. I love the colours and how you've treated the background and chipboards to match. (And they are such yummy chippies!) Beautiful flowers too.
My heart goes out to you. My DD passed 3yrs ago this month. It doesn't seam that long ago already. I love your page and glad you found such a nice pic. You scrapped it Beautifully~hugs
I'm sure your heart healed a little as you did this layout, thinking about your dad the whole time you worked on it. This is so beautiful & the colors reflect the ocean perfectly! Great job! :)
My dad passed away 1 1/2 years ago and I miss him endlessly. He loved to sail and when I was going through some of his personal belongings the other day, I found this photo of him. I think it was taken sometimes in the 90's, but I'm not sure. I don't know who took this photo, but it is so "dad". This is how I imagine him now, sailing and not in pain anymore.
I have used several Dusty Attic chippies for this layout. Underneath the large flowercluster I have a Leafy Scroll (DA0764) and I have also used the smaller of the Sweet Pea Frames and corners (DA0573. I painted all the chippies with Dusty in Color, Alabaster (DA0902), Capri (DA0915) and Oceania (DA0912). I used the same colors of paint on my background paper too, to let the chippies and papers melt together.
Finally I painted two mini Birds #3 (DA0727) with white enamel accents.
