On the farm - Lasting Memories






The challenge this week at Lasting Memories is earth tones and serpia photos. I made a layout of my grandmother's younger brothers and sister in the late 1920s. Photo was taken at my great-grandparent's farm in Wisconsin.

Supplies used:
cardstock - recollections
thickers from American Crafts (delight in red)
ribbon from May Arts
butterfly punches by Martha Stewart and EK Success

Come over to Lasting Memories, check what the rest of the design team has created and then link your creation and join the fun. Entries due by 9 p.m. EST on Saturday, Nov. 12th.

Family

Stuck?! Sketches - Nick Nack

This is the November 1st challenge sketch at Stuck?! Sketches.

This layout contains pictures of my grandson Nick, a senior, at the Marching Band Festival. The musician to his left is also named Nick, a freshman. At band camp when the leader said Nick move to your left, both boys moved. So to tell the difference they started calling them Nick and Nack.
