Beautiful cluster with the flowers, ribbons, clock and other elements. Like the tattered paper frame and accent on the lovely photo of your family (your mom and the kids??). Thanks for joining the challenge.

What a wonderful photograph, Chris! I love all of the white flowers you used in your beautiful cluster! They make such a great contrast on your page!

What more can I add, Chris? Chic, elegant, with a wonderful photo! It doesn't get much better than that!

Wow.. how young you look!!!

What a wonderful photo! Love the crumpled papers and the flower cluster.

Being together means even more these days. That's a wonderful photo and I love how you've embellished it with the border cluster and brushwork (paint?) I especially like the clock reminding us of moments that mean something special.

TY! That clock was literally a last-minute addition and it felt "right" as soon as I put it there- it all clicked. I think that was the message I was trying to get across <3

@faerywings this page is the bomb! Do people still say that? I love seeing the picture of your mom with you and Gary. But that border....oh my goodness...you would think that clusters are your primary style. Love what you did with the purple/pink paint rings...and then the purple/pink flowers in the border. Love the neutrals and the way they are brought to life with a few bright pops of color. I think that your shadow work is totally on point. And, I love the title! Great job on this challenge.
