Heroes (real or fake) over at Passion for Markers

 Morning and hello!

Time for a new challenge over at Passion for Markers. And this time do we have a special theme for you all. The theme is set to

 

Heroes, real or fake

This can be interpreted in more than one way. Please help us out and tell us who and why it's your hero.

Our sponsor this week is our dear friends over at Dies to die for. They offer one lucky winner a gift voucher worth £15. Thank you for that!

My project this week is not a card as it normally is, instead have I created a scrapbook page with details coloured with my promarkers. All the flowers, leaf and the letters on the page is coloured with my markers. The flowers are from two different sets from hÄnglar and Wings and I have paired them up together to add some details to my page.

 

The page shows my grandparents on my mum's side. This photo shows them on a day trip they did way back in the days. Both of them are gone since many years. My grandma was a home makers as many women was back in the days. My granddad worked for the swedish railways and his job is why I called this page secrete heros. During the WWII was Sweden known for its neutrality towards other countries. It might have been true but there was also plenty of people helping both sides of the war.

My granddad was a clever guy who used his work to transport and hide jews that needed help to survive. None knew what he was doing until they found a letter he had written to his family if something would have happened to him during this time. It was found when he passed away. There was many people helping out during these hard years and I am impressed by them all. They were true heroes!

It was fun to make this scrapbooking page and it gave me time to think about them both. I miss them alot, especially my granny that was my best friend.. I hope that I will find more photos of these to me special persons.

Time for you to create something for our hero challenge. Look forward to see what you all come up with for our challenge!

Love n hugs

Marie
