Working on a scrapbook of this past year using pictures printed from my Sprocket (love that thing). Doing the pages 6x8 - the smaller size seems to work really well for me.
I cased this card by Wanda, cullenwr (the Featured Stamper this week):
I should have gone a little bigger with the ink and the distressing. Wanda's card is so wonderful!!! Thanks again for the inspiration, Wanda, your gallery is inspiring.
This is a picture of my sweet Sister, Sara. She was murdered 20 years ago (her MIL hired someone to kill her). ID TV did a special on the murder this year - it was hard to go back through it in detail,but I was glad her story was told and the world could see her sweet spirit.

Oh no, Nancy, this is so sad. I have tears in my eyes. What a tragedy for your and your family. I can't begin to tell you how I wish you had never had to face anything like this. I wish peace for you and your girls. She was such a beautiful girl outside and I'm sure inside.
