This is such a special layout - my mother loved trillium. In the spring she would watch for them and my dad had to stop the car anytime she thought she might see them. I've never seen anyone do a layout about trillium and this one is so pretty! I'll have to watch for a layout with it blooming. Thanks so much for sharing this - it brings back wonderful memories of my mom!!

this is positively beautiful.. the papers and the border mimic the leaves n the trillium... and I learned what they are called.. we just call them red trilliums.. i really need to start researching... all of your pages are not only beautiful, but educational too... I was out in the woods today and found trilliums too... I absolutely love them and they grow abundantly in our area. Your sister's garden looks beautiful... TFS!1

This is beautiful. I like your simple framing and the tag is wonderful. It echoes the colours of the plant to perfection.

Very pretty page! I don't think that I've ever seen a trillium but now I can say that I have

I love this picture with all the greenery! Love the way you've put a frame inside the picture as well. This is a great page!
