This is a scrapbook page of my maternal aunt, Barbara (Bobby) Ann Johnson. She was born in 1952 with severe birth defects including spina bifida and hydrocephalus. She was blind, could not walk and was profoundly mentally retarded - but from the stories my grandparents and my mother told me, she was a constant joy to them. My mother said that my grandparents grew old overnight when Bobby passed away on her fifth birthday.

The title doesn't show up very well in the pic, but it's the first two lines of the William Blake poem - Little Lamb who made thee? Dost thou know who made thee? This was made for Eileen's Heritage Challenge, Melissa's Use Your Supplies Challenge and the March Anything Goes Daily Challenge to use a lion or a lamb in a layout. There is hidden journaling on the tag on the bottom left that can be pulled out.

I downloaded the images of the vintage lamb and easter scene, printed them on cardstock and then distressed, stickled and painted them. I LOVE the way they turned out.

That gorgeous red prima rose is from my wonderful secret sister. Can't wait to find out who she is!!!
