i made this page for a challenge at the salt blog. the prompt was the word rest. one of my favorite hymns is "Be Not Afraid". there is a line in the chorus that talks about rest, so i decided to use the lyrics for my page.
the song reminds me of my Great Aunt Ann, and she is on the right in the photo. on the left is her sister, Winnie. the photo was taken in their kitchen. (in front of the deep freeze with the International Harvest logo on it. who knew they made deep freezes?) they are "dressed up", so i bet we were on our way uptown to the cafe to eat.
this photo is a good reminder to me to not always crop my photos too closely. it's fun to be able to see how the area in the background looked and have it jog my memory. i love how they have the toaster covered with a little towel.
instead of using my little x to adhere the letters, this time i used a Tombow glue pen. it worked really well, and the letters stuck right away. now i just need to remember where i got it. thanks for visiting!
