A Proud Deer Making A Wish

Hello, how are you today? Today I am sharing this proud Deer he is making a special wish on a star.  I used aqua markers spritzed with lots of water for the background and a Lavinia Stamp die cut.I added some white flower soft under his feet. I hope his wish comes true...

We went to The Shrouds Of The Somme at the Olympic Park this morning to pay our respects, and to look for our relatives names.We had to wait to go in as Princess Anne had made an impromptu visit. It was heartbreaking to see so many shrouds, I found only one relatives name, but when I asked it was explained that the 72,396 shrouds only represented those who had died with no known grave.Some of my relatives who died at the Somme have known graves. A very sad morning.

In memory

My Great Uncle he was killed at The Somme aged just 19.

I don’t have a photo of my My Great Grandfather, but he also died at The Somme aged 41 and is remembered on this plaque. 

My Grandfather fibbed about his age and joined up at just 14 years old. He was 18 when the war ended, he is pictured here with the Belgium family who looked out for him.

I made paper poppies, and my sister crocheted poppies, so we could decorate our porch. To say thank you to all those who fought for our country and those who continue to do so.
