The photo is of my oldest and me, nearby our 1st home, where he was born. We moved 2 houses since then, and we're about to move again in a few weeks, so this challenge, with it's inspiration was right up my alley. I had so much to write for my boy, so I've created 2 'windows', that one needs to open in order to read (see the close-ups).
I used flair buttons from StudioFourteen40 (Dali set 3; Post mark), and 2 Get Chalked tabs set 1.

I used the sketch from Scrap365:
Scheme - all 5 colors are there.
Evidence - architectural accents (the home stamp), flowers, twine, wood.
Testimony - my hidden journaling is spread in two 'windows'. on the upper square, with the stamped home, I documented a journey we've made recently to my old neighborhood, where I was born and raised, and where I came back and gave birth to my boys. On the 2nd 'window', behind the title, I wrote about us, having to move again, and how in spite of changing residence, we kept all our old friends from our old hometown. I ended my journaling: "My dear son, changes can be a stimulus for good things, for renewal, for growth, for new experiences. Changes are a lesson for life to be flexible. I hope that you will always feel that home is where we are together, wherever that may be, whatever house, whatever city. Together, always together. Love you. Mom."
Here are some close-ups on the details:
