Today I'm sharing a page I made for my Dad's memorial album. This is my Dad as a baby. I can't get over how adorable he was! We tend to forget (at least I do) that our parents were babies and kids once too. They didn't just come into this world as adults, ready to parent us. LOL!
I used Little Yellow Bicycle's Fern and Forest Boy collection for this page, adding in some embellishments from the Naturals collection (burlap, canvas and wood) to give the page some texture. Don't be shocked by this next comment, but I stamped on the background paper. It's subtle, but it's there.
Do you have photos of your parents in their younger days? Have you scrapped them?
this layout is just awesome!! love how you did the frame!
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous girl!!! I love all the layers and bits to look at! and a great colour combo!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVEEEEEEEEEEE this!!! LOVING that photo, the colors and loving how you framed his face!! And I have some older photos of my parents and have scrapped some of them... and you have inspired me to do more!!! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a fantastic page!!! The first thing that caught my eye was the frame around his face. That really drew me in. I just got in some of LYB Fern and Forest in the purple colors. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteThat is an adorable photo, and I love how you used the frame. Great page. I have some pictures of my parents at children and have scrapped some. Hard to know what to journal, since they are before my time.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors! The frame is a nice touch. I am going to have to buy this collection.
ReplyDeleteThis layout is just amazing, and I love how you made the picture the focus-your dad was such a cutie!!
