near, far, wherever you are...

....My heart will go on” I truly adore this song, and I can honestly say the words have special meaning to me, especially because of the distance between me and my grandchildren. {In case you're not aware, I live in SE Qld, Australia, while my family, including sons and grandchildren all live in Auckland, NZ} These are the lyrics from one of my all time faves “The Titanic” – that is why I’ve picked this one for the August challenge over at t Scrap That Song. The photo is of my granddaughter answering the telephone when I phoned her for her birthday, wearing a t-shirt that I bought for her at the Ettamogah Pub, Sunshine Coast.   I’ve based the LO on the challenge sketch (H) over at Twiddleybitz; along with the requested criteria -fabric (Webster’s Bloomers flowers) and Twiddleybitz chipboard (GAT005, Gate with Lamp Post) Other products used: Prima flowers and packaging, A Lil' Somethin' bottle top and flag, Adornit pps (Flutter Flight collection), Echo Park alphas, all else from my stash including the yellow alphas, stamp, acetate, feathers, metal clock, measuring tape & butterfly ribbons.  The symbols for my perpetual love, for my granddaughter, are the (timeless) clock with no hands and the measuring tapes.  So here’s a wee video of the beautiful song, with the lyrics. There are close-ups of the LO below too.  Enjoy – until next time, take care {hugs} Mazz

Quote of the Day

butterfly kisses

My fairy

Your fairy is called Columbine Goblinglitter
She is a bringer of riches and wealth.
She lives in mushroom fields and quiet meadows.
She is only seen in the light of a shooting star.
She wears lilac and purple like columbine flowers. She has gentle green wings like a butterfly.
