Yes, Happy bday to your LOVELY mother!!! I totally agree with you....she so looks like Deborah Kerr in these photos (she was one of my favorite actresses). Love that color pink/rose with the blue and green. Very elegant for an elegant lady! TFS!!
beautiful colors, design, cool stitching, flowers, lovely portrait and thoughtful daughter !My mother in law did the same thing, and shes the same age now, almost. I wonder if she has portraits like this around.
Gorgeous - love those deep, rich colors - your Mum was indeed brave, NYC alone at 23 takes tremendous courage - I too love these portrait shots - this is exactly the way a NYC secretary was expected to dress in the 50's - very elegant and professional - and yes your Mum was beautiful - so much character in her face - I would have hired her just on her photos. Great job.
Part of my "I love my Mum" birthday series. :) (She turns 80 on August 13!) My mum always says she was frumpy...I just do NOT get this...I mean, every photo I see of her tells me a different story...that she was beautiful (and still is!). She is also brave, coming alone to the USA at 23 to make a new life as a secretary in NYC! I love these portrait photos of her at 22 (she hates them!) and think she looks so English! She always reminded me of Deborah Kerr (remember the lady in an "Affair to Remember"?)
This is some of that stitched paper...love it! Just made some simple, stacked roses to go with it.
