Road Trips


Another page for my daughter's Heritage album. Same pictures as my son's page, different design.
I had bad lighting - the green should be more forest-y!

A Guy and His Pals


Apparently my Dad and his pals took some trips and went camping in the 1930s and 40s.
I think it's funny that they're never wearing shirts in these photos, but it was summer
and it was hot. Love the old cars.

Hello Sunshine


For my granddaughter's album, a page about some of her end-of-the-year events - recognition for being a reading mentor, the last choir concert, and a Student Council retreat.

Photoplay - Oh What a Beautiful Day

As Time Goes By

 


This is the companion page to yesterday's layout about my paternal grandparents.

Treasures


I'm making two Heritage albums, one for each of my children,
so I need two of every page. This is the first one I've done for
the second album. While the photos and the arrangement are the 
same, the collection is different - Bo Bunny's Family Heirloom.

Day in the Life

 


Today's LOAD prompt was about documenting everyday life,
and I realized I hadn't done that in my Covid Traveler's Notebook.
So here's yesterday.

Lifetime of Love


This page for my Heritage album is about my paternal grandparents,
immigrants from Italy in the early 1900s. 

I'm taking part in ScrapHappy's Layout a Day; the prompt for today is
"something that hasn't seemed to change even with the passage of time."
I saw this in my grandparents' love for each other and their children,
and also in the strong family ties that continue to this day.
The technique prompt is to use clocks and/or gears.

All paper and embellishments are from Simple Stories Vintage Ancestry collection.
