THIS IS MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT A LO AFTER 10 DAYS OF VACATION IN LAKE TAHOE, MISS IT ALREADY! THIS WAS AN EARLY MORNING WHEN MY DAD, MOM & I WALKED DOWN TO THE GENERAL STORE FOR A COFFEE.
THE SMALL PHOTO IS OF MY DAD (ON THE RIGHT) & HIS FRIEND WAS TAKEN WHEN HE WAS 17 AND THE SEPIA I TOOK IN THE SAME PLACE 62 YEARS LATER, BLOWS MY MIND HOW LONG DAD HAS BEEN GOING TO TAHOE. HE ALWAYS TOOK US CAMPING WHERE HE GREW UP GOING WITH HIS DAD. I LOVE HIM DEARLY AND W ILL ALWAYS TREASURE OUR TRIPS WITH HIM AND MOM. IN THE SMALL PICTURE HE WAS 17 AND THE CURRENT ONE I TOOK HE'S 78!!! I WAS INSPIRED BY ONE OF LVALENT3'S GREAT LO's FOR THIS ONE, I ALSO I USED THE GREAT DUSTY ATTIC DECO SCROLL 1. TKS FOR STOPPING BY, I'LL BE CATCHING UP WITH ALL YOU GUY'S AWESOME WORK SOON!!!
i love this LO' is it gorgeous, the story about it is awesome also. you should try to put a pocket on it some where an include the story you told here.... i love the stories everyone tells about their Lo's and wish they were on the Lo's too... it tells so much about the picture.... i just cannot get over how beautiful this LO is....
I don't think there are enough words to describe how great this is! Wonderful tribute to your dad - goes without saying! - bt the colours, the sepia, the hinges, the attention to detail - incredible! I think you could have also called it 'A proper gentleman' like your snippet in the corner!
Wow this LO is awesome!! I love the colors and the swirls that accentuate the photo. It is so cool that you have a photo of your Dad at 17 and 78! It is a wonderful design. You should win a prize!
Wow, I love this. Fabulous pics to have and especially as they were taken in the same place! I just love your choice of pp's for this layout and I love the layers and the TH hinges! Fave!!!!
