Christmas 1974

Journaling reads:
My husband & I had been dating about 4 months. I was a single mom struggling to pay my bills. He paid my electric bill so the heat didn't get cut off, and gave me these earrings. I loved them so much that I had to stop wearing them because the metal was breaking.

This is just super! What a wonderfully kind man to pay the heating bill for your family that time. The earrings truly are a treasure of a reminder of that special time! Love that you kept them even though you can't wear them anymore! I really like that flag banner and the arrow pointing to them. Just great happy colors! Super work on this challenge! Good luck!

Great journaling! The banner crossing under it and across the frame and the arrow are fabulous accents on the page.

How sweet what a wonderful story behind your magical gift. I love how the colors of the earings match the color in the one flower you used in your layout.

What a great gift for you to treasure. It is so wonderful that you have a tangible item to help you remember the help that he gave you. I like the ribbon banner and the flowers that you chose as accents for your page.
