Framed Scrap Book Page

I was thinking about starting a scrapbook page when I came across this picture of my grandmother, it was do darn cute! Then I remembered that the anything but a card challenge at StampTV, was a framed piece, so I made it to fit a frame I had on hand. It took me very little time, but it does what it needs to.

Here is the challenge, STVABCKK1. Karen Knegten is the new hostess for the next three months. I didn't think I would do this one, but why not showcase a scrapbook page for a while? I used creamy caramel, certainly celery, and a small oval of very vanilla card stock, (SU). I stamped the old time looking fruit/veg ads, (SU), and Rupa Shevde's row boat from "guiding light", (GKD), in chocolate chip.

My grandmother was a farm girl, and a tomboy! I miss my grandma, she was a very special part of my life, we even named our one and only after her.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I am so sorry I've been MIA for so long. It's so hard to find/make time to blog hop and leave comments since I've come back. I'll try to do better ;) Hope you're having a wonderful week?!! x

What a wonderful keepsake, Lori!! I love that you've made it into something to hang, instead of putting in a book!
