This LO has been created using the March kit from Scrapagogo. Unusually for me, I used a patterned paper as my background page, I chose to do this because the pattern on the paper enhanced the patterned lace on the upper sleeves of my wedding dress. The title speaks for itself I think, I was fine in front of the camera in the group photos, but when I was stood alone as the bride, I was extremely shy. I was the tender age of 16 years old when I married my childhood sweetheart back in 1976, I was a gymslip girl and was 7 months pregnant in these photos. My dad, chosse my dress for me very carefully, he was influenced by the 'bell' shaped sleeves.......bless him.
I was married for just over 20 years and we had 4 wonderful sons together. We have now both moved on, but remain friends to this day!
This LO was created using the April Kit, I knew that I wanted a garden theme and loved this photo of the Rose Arbour.
The journaling reads
"My fondness for the rose goes back to childhood. Spending time watching my grandad in his garden, caring for his roses. Clipping, preening & pinching off dead flowers to make sure that thier pretty heads stayed the whole summer through!!"
