LOTW | Carly

Our Layout of the Week, Today You, comes from our member Carly (username LilyandTwig). Carly's stunningly simple layout really stood out in our member gallery. To keep up with Carly and see more of her work, be sure to follow here at SC and on her blog!

I created this page for a project I’ve been doing for close to 5 years now called, Letters to my Daughters. The project began with just a collection of notes I had been writing for my girls when they turned two. The notes told little stories such as their different likes and dislikes, funny things they said, and millstones they reached. Over the years the project has grown into a collection of favourite photos, inspirational quotes, words of wisdom, and personal letters sharing all my hopes and dreams for each of them. The hope is that when they are older they will read these books, know their full story, and see how much they are loved. My inspiration behind this page started with the photo and the story of that day. Right now my daughter has the most amazing imagination, which I hope she will never lose. But if she ever forgets the power of her imagination, it is my hope that this page, along with others, will be that great reminder and inspire her to imagine again.

Congratulations Carly! More members added this project to their inspiration books for the week of 12.30-1.5 than any other, making it our layout of the week! You have won a $10 gift card to be used on any new purchase at Studio Calico.

    This is beautiful. Even more so, the project of letters for your daughters. Mine are adults, but I still have letters in my heart. I will love to begin a project like this. Even just one letter would suffice. Thank you for this precious inspiration.
