Love, love, love, this wonderful heritage page. I love that you told us the story behind the photo and gave us a glimpse into your family's background. I also love that you embellished lightly. This was a time of grea austerity in the US and your minimal ornamentation echoes that...

I can't believe it's April already. But I'm really confused. We had beautiful spring weather 2 days ago and my car doors were frozen closed this morning with ice on al the windows. Sigh! It needs to make up it's mind! It's definitely time for a change, so here's the new thread for April...

Oh, that's a fabulous photo! Edinburgh to Sydney? Talk about culture shock - not to mention the differences in temperature. This was a courageous lady! Your LO is sterling!

Hello, Susan! Glad to see you here. I can't wait to see your newest photos and follow along as you scrap them!

I just love these. It goes to show that you can do heritage with any style kit. Fantastic!

Awesome is right! Yay!

We're all happy, too, Ona! Thanks for setting us up!

Fabulous picture! Truly a gem in your collection. What sweet faces! Is this a cabinet card? Are you fortunate enough to have the cover? Some of them are as beautiful and wonderful as the photos themselves.

WOW! 300? That's amazing work can't wait to see some of them!

I also love your minimal use of embellishments. This mimics the spare beauty of Greece and is so appropriate.

Congratulations - and well deserved. This page is simply gorgeous and amazing!

Stunning is right! That illustration is amazing. Perfect!

Beyond cool! I think Andy Warhol might well approve! This is an amazing page!

When I glanced in the gallery I thought this an allegorical piece. Nice blending! This really is beautiful and meaningful.

Congratulations! Well deserved. Wonderful creativity!

Kissimmee is a beautiful area. My parents lived in West Palm Beach for a number o fyears and I lived there for about a year with them after I go out of the service. Drove right past on my way to Tallahassee (FSU is my alma mater) to go to school several times a year. It looks like your son...

Debra, I so agree with all the comments about color. This is a turly delightful page and it earned you a Standing O!

Last for today, I promise! This gorgeous heritage page by Debra aka @Hamer Lodge is just delightful. The colors in your beautiful cluster make the whole page sparkle and the photo is priceless!

Oh, I swear I'm not smoking anything! I love fun, quirky, collage pages. I especially like the fish!

Okay, I'm watching Monty Python again! Romantic and fun!
