Done!

So my dear ladies and gents I have finally finished the memorial album I was working on for my hubby's coworker and she got it on Friday.  While I was very happy with how it turned out I was still quite nervous that she wouldn't like it.  But there were plenty of tears, smiles, hugs and lots of showing off to other employees, couldn't be more thrilled that she loved it!

I thought I'd break it down into a few different posts to help keep everyone's sanity in tact!

I used the new Indie Chic lines from My Mind's Eye. I found the colors and designs were perfect for the photos and what I was told about Abby.  I started with a BoBunny 9x9 Canvas album and spent several days going through photos and sketching out ideas for pages before diving in.  It took about a month and the sacrifice of a clean house to get it done, but our vacuum was broken anyway so whatever is a girl to do?

But here is the first part of the finished product!

The inside cover is a poem that Laurie posted on her FB page shortly after Abby passed away, it reads "God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be

So he put his arms around you and whispered 'come to me'

with tearful eyes we watched and saw you pass away

Although we love you dearly we couldn't make you stay

A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest

God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best"

Look for the next batch of pages tomorrow, thanks for stopping by!
