Bird is the word - HOPE challenge

the next challenge at http://birdisthewordchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/07/sunday-july-3rd-challenge-word-hope.html is to use the word HOPE on your layout.. well there were so many quotes with the word HOPE in them, but i had to use the verse from Jeremiah 29:11. this is a verse with promise.. and i used a photo of my daughter Hannah in her formal gown.. getting through 12 years of school and beginning a new chapter in your child's life has been for me quite emotional..suddenly almost overnight  they are in the world and begin to make decisions that affect their future..so i hope she can look back at this layout and know that God is on her side and with Him, her future is in His Hands..


I copied off the butterflies and DM-ed them and put them on foam to give a bit of dimension..





thanks for looking.. HOPE your day is going great!

  17. Beautiful page and I remember my own Mother finding it really hard when my brother finished year 12 and left home. Now as a Mother with a son in high school, year 12 no longer seems a long way away, and that feeling that I will have an adult child in less than 5 years is somewhat alarming! But on the upside, an adult child can have adult conversations with you!!!!
