May Challenge #47 for Unstampabelles - Second Week


Hello Peeps - did you have a great Mother's Day? I hope so! 

I want to share a photo I found on my FB this week (no, not the one above) - taken by Wild Ocean Tasmania - of a pod of dolphins off the coast!



Stunning what!

I have personally seen pods like this so know this is not that unusual but it always moves me.

On to the challenge over at Unstampabelles for May

The theme is Family History - who is in your family tree? 

Make a scrap page or create a card or photo page/inside a frame about a family member 
who is in the past. 

The TWIST is to make it VINTAGE


This is the prize being offered:


Last week I shared a scrap page about my Mother and this week it is a scrap page about my Mother-in-Law, another wonderful woman who we all loved dearly.


She died in May a few months short of her 100 years, in 2013


Hard to think she was born in Melbourne in 1913


I was informed by her son I had misspelled her name! It has been corrected to Marjorie......isn't that lace so pretty!


The paper is from Stampin' Up

You are now inspired to go off and create your own!
Yes, you are!!

You can enter it HERE at Unstampabelles!

I will enter this in the following competitions:
Avenue613: Anything Goes with a twist on celebration - Mother's Day!
One Stitch at a Time: Anything Goes with a special Lady
The Outlaw Challenge: Mother's Day
Inkspirational: Distressing, flowers and pearls (recipe)

This is a lovely page Susan - the embellishments are perfect and the lace goes so well with the frame around the wonderful picture of your late mother in law. Thank you so much for entering the OSAAT Challenge this fortnight, lots of luck to you.
