Our kids, however, are growing up in a big city. To compensate this, we go to Upper Austria, where I grew up, every summer. We teach them where the food comes from and to respect nature.
One visit was to a farm where my ancestors lived a few hundred years ago. One of the cows got very curious and Sarah ended up with a cow kiss. It was so funny!
I based this layout on the fabulous sketch from THE SAMPLER.
Here are some close ups:
I made the title using the scrabble paper from Kaisercraft, just distressed it a bit to make it match.
I used a lot of journaling so I hid it behind the photo.
The farmer's wife had the most beautiful flower garden. I tried to recreate this with the cute Prima flowers Romance Novel.
Thanks for stopping by!
All the best,
Elisabeth

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for playing along with The Sampler challenges! A cow kiss? Now that's something to write home about! Hehe I agree with Nancy. I think it's fabulous that you teach your children like that.
