Isn't that title something else? ha ha! It's cut from the piece of October Afternoon "Farmhouse" paper in my staff monthly kit at Urban Scrapbook. This is our March sketch challenge, and I thought this collection's vintage feel was perfect for these photos of my mom on her family farm.

I have to tell you, I'm in love with these photos of my mother, which are from her scrapbook, handed down to me. I think she's about 18 years old, and to see her in the farmyard (the farm where she grew up) with the chickens and also playing with the dog, well, I am completely enchanted. The last photo on the right is especially precious....because I've never seen my mother run. NEVER.

The brownish photo mat behind the 3 pics is crumpled Tim Holtz Kraft Glassine paper. I made the leaves by cutting more crumpled glassine, along with the ribbon flower, which is ribbon spiralled tightly onto a circular piece of cardstock with a Prima button in its centre. And I couldn't resist adding some Dusty Attic chicken wire chipboard (from my stash, not in the store kit).
