TESTIMONY
I chose to put my journalling in the envelope and use the inspiration words, love, memory and family.  The journalling reads:-

I love this family photo which was taken on your third birthdays.  You each had your own cake, which tested your parents ingenuity because one of you chose a swimming pool cake and one a construction site cake; indicative of what you’d observed being built in your own back garden. Your big cousin had given you water pistols, so you had a wonderful time squirting everyone and everything in sight.  Happy memories. Love Granny 25 Jan 2014

    Look at that adorable photo! so much happiness, bless them all. Fab design, with so much attention for details. The woodend embelliesh and title add ao much, in some contradiction to the soft and subtle colors. Love it.

    The colours of this palette are perfect for this layout and that is a wonderful family photo. I think that all of the boy grandies have sooooo much of you in them. They look like a happy family. I had a good giggle at the cake story and I can see that rearing its ugly head before long. I reckon I need to hone my baking skills somewhat or find a really good and resonable cake shop ;) a fabulous layout Helen.

    I just loooove these colours! so up my alley, too bad there is never enough time for me to do the casefiles any longer. Your page is BRILLIANT Helen! just a perfect CAS layout worthy a pub. Wonderful photo too. How clever of the parents to have two different cakes! Take care, xoxo
