ris chose to use the new BasicGrey "Sweet Threads" line for this layout about motherhood. She says that the paper has the look of soft beautiful fabrics that reminds her of the linens that her mother used to cherish so much during her childhood.
Iris reflects in her journaling her surprise at how she has turned out to me so much like her mother when it comes to disciplining her children... something that she swore before she would not do. But more than saying the same things as her mother, she hopes to be so much more like her mom in more important aspects like for example how her mother placed her children above all else, and how her mom created a life that is enriching both for herself and her children.
Janine is always amazed at how similar her Grandmother and her lives have been. She wanted to jot a few things down, to remind herself of the similarities for years to come. She shares such a close bond with her Grandmother and what better way to pay tribute to this, in the form of a layout! Janine finds the new Madeline Collection by Prima so appealing with it's wonderful palette of colours for a modern vintage feel for her layout. Helping the juxtaposition between old and new.
