The layout and the prize

I was recently notified I had won the heritage layout contest at Scrapbooking.com. and that my prize was on the way. This is one of my favorite layouts. It is of my mother and two of her friends in Chicago when they were all about 19 or so. They had gone to the Big City to become career women but, just a few months later, hungry and out of money, they all came home to their small town in Iowa. This was one of their glory days before reality set in.

I never imagined how full the prize box would be. The sponsor of the contest was Blue Hills Studio's Color Story line and look at how generous they were. Thanks to Scrapbooking.com and to BHS!
