Family tree

This is my Dad's family, it's rather a busy page but I wanted to include photographs of the family young and old so I've included my grandfather as an older man standing behind his younger self, my grandmother is repeated behind my father, he was her baby, 21 years between him and his brother...my dad features 5 times, his brother James once which is a reflection on how little I feel about him - lets blame the 21 years between him and my Dad...I don't remember my grandmother, she died when I was one but my mother tells me she was a good person who loved her family deeply.

I removed a couple of the frames then basically spent a long time positioning photographs and playing about with blending modes, colour burn and overlay seemed to work best with the photographs so I stuck with that. The background paper is one of my faves from AP Memento and the only other addition is a couple of overlays from AP Conserve to add the blue tone, my Aunt's name which I created using urban threadz and beads from various word art mix beads. The ribbon is part of a garland from AP Old World. I also scanned the names Kennedy and James from the back of the photographs - I would like to think it's my grandmother's writing but who knows?

Without a doubt the best presentation I have ever seen of members of a family dynasty. Such an inspiration of your hours of work to make this perfect family record. Definitely a LIFT for me to emulate Fiona
