Remembering Allison

I didn't know Allison Baden-Clay directly but most people in the Kenmore/Brookfield community knew who she was.  So it isn't really a surprise that when she lost her life so tragically and horrifically, that it should have affected us to some degree.  

I was asked to create a title page for a condolence book on behalf of the school her 3 daughters attend.  I was delighted to be able to contribute in some way.

The 3 girls attend the same ballet school as my daughter, though not in the same class, but we had exchanged a few insignificant words as you pass in the hallway, while waiting for lessons to finish.  

This beautiful journal was provided and I have just covered the lined area with card.  Pretty Peonies comes to the rescue yet again, and the printing was done by computer.

Edited to Add:  I received an Honourable Mention for this entry!  YAY

This is my second post for the day (there could be a third), please scroll down for my WMS August Blog Waltz entry.

I made this birthday book for my mother, not that long ago, which I felt would qualify for this challenge. These colours are absolutely her, she really isn't a frilly and fussy girl and she is a former Home Economics teacher (sewing, cooking etc), so the decorations on the cover are particularly appropriate.  I need to make a couple more in the next few weeks for my aunts in Victoria AND start to think about end of year teacher presents.  Any ideas? they would be most gratefully received.
