The Gift of Giving





This Christmas I was able to give a special gift when I was asked to make Photo Art Tiles for a friend.  She had some pictures of her parents and wonderful old documents from their honeymoon in Italy from the early 1950's.  Her parents are gone now, and she wanted to find a way to share the old photos and documents from their journey with her family.  I layered the old stamps, passports and even love letters on the photos.  In the one photo of the two of them, the left half is a letter from her Dad to her Mom in English and on the right in Italian--so lovely.  I could feel their new love in these photos and they became even more special with all the mementos from their honeymoon travels.  I was so honored to create these pieces for her family.  I hope they bring back wonderful memories of her parents as they started their happy life together.  Merry Christmas dear friend. . .I thank you for allowing me to give you such a gift.
