Stephen's Grandparents' Memorial Layouts

Well, I didn't manage to get all of the memorial LOs uploaded and re-sized this weekend, but here are the ones I managed to do. The remainder are photographed, though, so I should be able to post them soon.

The first LO, She is Loved, was the LO I created while Nan was still in the hospital. I used the Cosmo Cricket Wanted line that came in the Scraptivity September 2006 kit for this LO. The journaling tells of all of her roles throughout her life.
Once Stephen's Mom asked me to prepare more LOs for the memorial service, I decided to use the same paper collection for all of the LOs. Special thanks to Wendy and Rebecca at S! for tracking down enough of the colletion for me to finish all of the LOs.

Since Stephen's grandfather had passed away almost 20 years earlier, we were able to hold Nan's memorial service on the 20th anniversary of Gramps' passing, and it became a memorial for both of them.
The Family LO includes a photo taken in our back yard on Nan's 85th birthday, and it includes all of her descendants and pretty close to all of her extended family. The M prominent in many of the LOs highlights their last name.

I like that I was able to incorporate both of their first names, Olga and Karl into the O and K in the word "Look" in the title of their Wedding LO, The Look of Love. Journaling at the bottom of the LO details their weding date and location.

There will be more to come later in the week. There are 7 LOs all together, as well as a large altered photo frame.
