Grandma's Watch

Grandma's watch - side 1

     This is my Grandma Tuckett - one of the finest ladies I have ever known.  She never had a bad thing to say about anyone, and when you needed to talk...she was there to listen.  The house - well...how her and Grandpa raised 4 kids in that little thing - with only one bathroom - is beyond me!  The one thing about Grandma - she was usually in the kitchen when you arrived, either doing dishes from the meal before, or getting ready to cook the next meal of the day, or fixing iced tea for everyone that was there!  She always had a bowl of candy - butterscotch's..and lots of hugs... lots and lots of hugs.  I miss her so much...but - when you are growing up, you think they will always be around!    

Grandmas watch - side 2

     
     This layout deserved to be special, just like Grandma was.  The layout started with a button pack that I purchased, which was used on the tags on the right side of the layout.  From there, I chose colors that matched the items in the button package.  I added journaling to the right side with the lettering in purple, along with a simple black and white photo of Grandma.  The only other accent piece I used, was her watch that I had got when she passed away!  I remember this being on her wrist every time I seen her, along with a simple wedding ring.  She was not an elaborate person, but she sure was beautiful!  She sure didn't look as old as she was either - I get that from her, and boy do I sure like it...being 46 almost 47 and not having wrinkles...ya, I love that I got that from her!  

Thanks for looking,
