Challenge 19

Well, i've heard it's time for the next challenge. And you may have heard or seen that i am having a moment for Vintage or Heritage pages............

So let's go scratching through all our piles of albums, because this challenge is to scrap a layout of a old photo or photos. We have all got a photo or two of our parents or grandparents, or choose a favourite old photo, for whatever reason .... there's a story behind everyone of them.

So please share your pages with us, and photos from 40 years ago or more.

Here's one i have done,



And this came about, when Rob's Dad was in for a cuppa one morning and he stopped at my family photo board and started telling me how this picture of him, his mum & sister was taken in 1942, while his Dad was away at war. So whammooo......there grew an inspiration. I even found amongst my bits n bobs some military buttons to add to the page.

Catchya soon..
