I have made a new desktop for Armistice Day.
The photograph is of The Tyne Cot Cemetery and Memorial, Zonnebeke, Belgium.
The Memorial here commemorates nearly 35,000 servicemen from the United Kingdom and New Zealand who died in the Ypres Saleint after 16th August 1917 and whose graves are not known.The memorial stands close to the farthest point in Belgium reached by Commonwealth Forces in the First World War until the final advance to Victory. The original photograph was taken by a friend and used with her permission.
The stunning background paper, the picture frame, the ribbon, bow and the Armistice overlay are taken from
the new Lest We Forget Scrapkit created by Judy at Touch of Class.
You will not want to miss this! Unbelievably each new kit from Judy is better than the one before.
The papers and many of the elements can be used for other scrapbook work.
In my ZIP file there is a widescreen and a standard size desktop.
In my other hobby of genealogy I have been busy with a site commemorating the men from
County Sutherland, Scotland. You may enjoy a peek at that.
In our Gallery we have cards commemorating the Armistice.
