I knew as soon as I saw Sharons (page 1) what photos I wanted to scrap with this. I go to Effingham, IL often for work and the World's Largest Cross (198 foot high) is there. I always like to drive by because it gives me a good memory of when I was little. My Uncle used to sing to me his favorite hymn "The Old Rugged Cross" and it reminds me of him.

Your pages are wonderful! There's a cross similar to that one downstate (I haven't been there, but I've seen the exit signs on the interstate). Love your color scheme and flowers.

Lovely layout, Lela. I like the diamond behind the focal point photo and nice job angling the photos on the right page. Just the right amount of embellishment too--great job!

Wow, I feel honored that you used two lifts for your layout. What wonderful memories that you will pass down. The two "sketches" word well together with your paper and color scheme. Wonderful!!
