Layout Of The Week February 26 2012*** Debbie Rybolt***

I thought of you today, but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too.
I think of you in silence, I often speak your name.
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is a keepsake from which I’ll never part.
God has you in His arms,
I have you in my heart.

This beautiful heartfelt layout is from one of our newest members Debbie Rybolt...In the gallery she is known as "troubles"...uh oh...wonder what that means??? Well, it certainly doesn't mean she has trouble creating beautiful LO's, because this one is Beautiful!! The poem I picked was actually taken from the journaling on her LO. The layering, the distressing, the composition is just fabulous! The bit of lace on the birdcage transforms it into a beautiful piece. Love love the flower cluster in the left hand bottom corner. They must have been handmade with love because they are sooooo pretty! The most creative part is how Debbie fussy cut the floral part of the background paper and tucked the matted photo into the corner. Gorgeous. It gives the layout so much dimension. The colors and choice of papers coupled with the precious photo, is warm and inviting, and leaves a memory imprinted on the heart. Thank you Debbie for sharing such a beautiful LO. We love it.
