Our Special Day (Maureen Wood) Aust

Good Morning

On this windy day in South East Queensland, still getting the winds from cyclone "OMA" which is sitting off the coast, not expect to cross the coast but whipping up some wild  seas and windy weather, but alas no rain which we need desperately,

I decided to do the double page layout sketch for "Stick it Down" had a few photo from my granddaughter dinner after her graduation  from primary school (where she was presented with her Lei ) It has become a bit of tradition from a friend of mine who started making them for my grandchildren several years ago for graduating from school

The LEI is a symbol of Love and congratulation for Graduating it also symbolism Wishes of Good Luck.
