Mother's Collage

I have spent my morning looking through pictures to try to organize a collage for my mother's graveside service next month. I have requested input from my daughter and my niece and my brother since you can have a maximum of 30 photos, but if I don't hear anything back, this will be it. It will be 20 x 30, and I am going to look for a poster frame for it. I thought this would be better than a poster with individual pictures, as I don't know what the weather will be.
It seems odd to say you are looking forward to a memorial service, but I am.


It will be nice to be with everyone, and it will be nice to honor my mother's memory. Also, I haven't been more than about 50 miles from home for almost two years. My Mother was pretty, wasn't she.

Candice, The collage you have designed in honour of your beloved mother is gorgeous. If it makes your heart smile thats all that counts. Memories are sometimes all that we have left of a loved one but they are the one thing that will always last a lifetime. My thoughts are with you. Jo x
