Fussy cut flowers and stitching

And thread that of course

goes along with stitching only different.

Love these flowers - they were on beautiful paper 

but I really wanted to use them as an accent

as they were really overwhelming on the paper.

And those wooden hearts make me swoon with the pearls.

 The flowers matched this lovely lined paper that I backed to

some polka dotted paper that I used somewhere else and cut the back out of.

So..... it needed to be a big mat.

Love this photo of my gram and I have no idea why she

has a drum stick in her hand (at least that's what it looks like to me). LOL. 

Her and grandpop came down 2 years in a row for

me and my brother's graduations.

She was my favorite.

I was her favorite.

I miss her.

She was a lot of fun and quirky and
gave good advice.

Studio Calico, doily, pearls.
