By the time Momma and Daddy attended Fullerton High, the school was HUGE. The yearbook for 1929 had 174 pages in it. The one for 1950 had 384. The arches from the previous page were -and are - still there. Seniors’ Corner, on the right, was a favorite gathering place. I wonder if they got yelled...

My father's page. Journaling reads: This single photo of Daddy when he was a 15-year-old Junior at FUHS is extra special to me, a real treasure. I have photos of him from being a baby to about age 10 or 12, then a break to this one, then not another except for his official Navy photos until...

Pages 5-8 are in the middle of the panoramic set. All 4 pages can be viewed at one time. Since it starts with my mother, then the school in the 1950s it's the prefect segue from my maternal to my paternal line as my father attended the same school as did his first double cousins (brother and...

This is my page. Yeah, I went to a LOT of schools! Again, this is more about the photos and elements first, then the background and borders. There are no special techniques - it just had to look and feel right!

Journaling reads: These are the only high school photos I can find of my brother. Skip - yeah, I know, he goes by Woody now, but Woody was my Grandpa and Skip is my brother! Surely there are more but where? The ROTC photo is from 1974. The band photos are from 1975. He is somewhere in the 3rd...

FEBRUARY CHALLENGE #3 - HERITAGE

How fun to look through my old elementary school photos! It brought back so many memories of childhood friends and one not so nice teacher LOL. So easy to make a beautiful page with Karen Schulz Designs " Vintage School Collection"

This is my entry for this month's Challenge No3 - heritage layout. The photos I have aren't great, but I was able to enhance them with Remini app. I spent quite some time trying to create a smooth and logical flow in my page to match the layout I created a while ago... , and finally decided to...

This is a photograph of my maternal grandfather and his 5 siblings. I only knew him and his two sisters, Rosetta and Adeline. Adeline was the baby and she lived to be 100 years old. My grandfather died in 1965 at the age of 65. The date on the layout is 1905. I used Karen Schulz My Story...

Alterations: I placed a sepia photo filter at 52% over the top of all the layers, and then finished by using a LUT Candlelight CUBE at 30%

I absolutely love the concept behind this new collection. Creating simple pages that tell our own stories. I think that's the part that too many scrappers like to skip and I think doing it is so important, so I love this new collection.

This is a follow on LO to Little Cowgirl Daydream - my mother's 1st cousins. I suspect this is the same day as the same house is in the background and my great aunt and grandmother did not live in similar houses. Again, so easy. Play with overlays, add photos and elements, then title and done.

The extraction is of my mother about 1940. In Southern California there were always pony rides. I think this may have been one that visited neighborhoods and took photos at your house because this looks suspiciously like my Grandma's house. This collection makes LOs so easy - just play with...

Recipe Challenge #7 found here: https://oscraps.com/community/media/october-recipe-challenge-7-jpg.369214/ Journaling reads: Mom was not one who liked having her picture taken. But, I think from the looks of the expression on her face in this photo that she is a proud momma holding her infant...
