This is so incredibly gorgeous! I remember the "Yankee Soldier" lo you did when I first started scrap booking and first found this site...it's still in my favorites list...I am going to come back here (it may be Sunday) when I have time to really enjoy this...what a treasure you have here!
This is absolutely beautiful! You are so talented and so fortunate to have these photos to scrap! What a precious legacy you are leaving. Now *this* is what scrapbooking is ALLLlllllll about! Great job, Mimi!
A beautiful heritage LO! I love the way the old photos were so "posed". Do the squares at their feet represent lost babies? I seem to remember my grandmother talking about photographers doing this so as to preserve the memory of the lost souls. You have some great old photos...lucky you, and lucky future generations that you are preserving them.
Beautiful design - love the colors of the pps and the way you did the matting - sooooo pretty! The lace is really pretty, too! Awesome vintage photo - like the two corners punched - really nice! Fantastic job on the journaling, too! Just BEAUTIFUL - to my faves!
Sharon, this is absolutely gorgeous! I love your colors....the lace, the pearls...but I REALLY love how you've documented the genealogy of the family! This is what scrapbooking is all about....the memories and the documentation. Making it beautiful is good too, but just look at the wonderful information you are leaving for future generations! Beautiful, my friend!
You did great with the "lift" of Susan's LO and made it your own in special ways. Love the journaling and the wonderful old photo! Are those numbers in the photo at their feet?
This is so beautiful, I love the lo and pic, I've been alternating between my heritage pics and son's baby pics for about a year now. I will definately borrow some of your ideas!! thanks!!
This is my take on a layout by sgoetter. I had to clutter up her clean design a little bit because I had too much journaling to squeeze in. I am so inspired by Susan's work, and I really like this addition to my heritage album. The journaling reads: Sarah Ann La Farlett married Henry Read Williams of Tennessee when Mollie was about three. Together they would have nine children, one of whom was my grandmother, Cora. Henry R. must have accepted Mollie as his own because, according to the 1910 Census, he was living with her and his own daughter Sarah (Sallie) in Milam County, Texas. All nine of the Williams children were born in Alabama, but in the early 1890's, Henry and Sarah, along with their younger children, migrated to Milam County, Texas, where this photograph was taken around 1898. Sarah died at the age of 56 in 1904, and Henry died in 1931, at about 82 years of age. They are buried in the Pebble Grove Cemetery in Maysfield, Texas. The rest of the journaling lists their children. I made the "Sarah" part of the title on the computer and then cut it out by hand.
