Here is my 12 X 12 Scrapbook page for this month's challenge to make a page with at least one number, one embellishment, and ODBD stamps(s). I inked up the scripture from the set, Porch, that urges us to "Stop and consider God's wonders." The picture displays the hands of my dear grandaughter, my Daughter-in-law and mine that we took on Mother's Day.
The "3" is there to represent our 3 hearts, as well as our hands, and for the embellishment, I made my first "pleated" flower. The Scripture is nestied with multiple layers with a child's hand stamped in the background. This page will be going into Daria's
scrapbook that I plan to start working on this month
This Scripture reminds me to always cherish all these special little moments with my DGD. She really is a WONDER!!

Sue, this is the most heart warming and touchy-feely page ever! To see your hands together is moving! And the Scripture is so perfect for the photo- babies are one of God's greatest wonders. I love the symbolism throughout your work and the significance of "three". A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.Ecc. 4:12. Father, Son, Holy Spirit, and "where two or three are gathered, I am there". Completely beautiful! What a treasure this will be for Daria to know how her Nana's heart is directed! Love every inch!!!!! LYMI

Such a burst of life, love and inspiration, Sue. Thanks so much for sharing this touchingly beautiful page. I am supposed to eventually scrapbook a little 8X8 album for my granddaughter and this is going into my faves for a "must do" page.
