We’ve all been there. Unfortunately we have all lost somebody we care about deeply. In fact Dawna just recently lost a dear girlfriend who bravely fought cancer for 3 years. That is what made her realize there is a real need for kits like
In Loving Memory
This kit is very tasteful and is appropriate for people of most faiths. There are 34 elements including a blank headstone for personalization. The 16 papers are understated and will allow for a variety of layouts. Also included is a full alpha of uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers that look like polished marble.
Although I hope you won’t need this kit for a long time to come, it’s nice to know its here waiting for you when you do. You can find it at Scraps N Pieces and Heritage Scrap. The kit is on sale for 30% off until May 18th.
Look at the beautiful layout I made using In Loving Memory:

The text on the right is my Grandma’s obituary, which my Dad and I actually collaborated to write. The journaling in the circle reads: “When my parents moved Grandma from her home in El Paso to a nursing home in Midland, I was quite happy, because it meant I would get to see her more often. However, Alzheimer’s is a really horrible disease and the last few times I saw her, it was really hard and I cried when we left Manor Park. When she passed away, I knew she was in a better place. I was sad that I had to miss her funeral as Janette’s due date was 2.5 weeks from the funeral and travelling was out of the question. As it was, Janette came early and my parents actually flew from Austin for the graveside service.”
Some of the North Stars made freebies to coordinate with this kit. If you visit their blogs you can pick them up: Lynn and Robin.
Very nice. I really enjoyed how you did the early picture with the current picture along with the tombstone.
