More Vintage (times 4)

I adore the photo of my great grandparents dancing.  I think it was taken in the 1950s. Shortly before he passed away. Virginia was born in 1919 so the photo in the stroller would have been taken that same year. What a happy family! Leslie and Alice later had a son, Chet.



I added some embossing to this page. I love the dimension that it it adds to a scrapbook layout.  And staying with the simple vintage patterns, I used a stamp with a typewriter font. I think it was appropriate for these layouts.

The postcard is definitely vintage!  1914 - and that building still stands today.


In the corner of the following two photos, you can see some photo corners that were used in the original scrapbook. I was not able to remove the photos from that book so the pictures include the photo corners, they were red hearts. The coats are amazing,


I am making for copies of everything for this vintage scrapbook. Four family members will get copies.


Journaling still needs to be added to this page. There were some notes on the back of the photos that I will include in some journaling efforts.  It was a very plain page so I added a little bit of string and a few banners to help out.


This is my grandfather. He was born in 1914. I love this photo!
