I scan in old photo's and then print them on a light ecru colored card stock. Then I use chestnut brown chalk ink to edge the photos. I am surprised (in real life) how well this technique works. Better than using sepia colored ink to print them. I had taken a photo of my mom's family in to a professional photographer to have printed up. I asked them to be as close to the original as possible. What I ended up with was a shiny black and white copy. So I started to experiment on my own and am extremely happy with the results.

I have been wanting to do a LO of my Mom and Dads wedding for a long time and this morning while I was going thru some paper, I found these and thought they would work very well. I am happy with the results. I documented on the back what supplies I used as well as where the wedding photos were taken. I have started doing this on all my newest layouts. Someday perhaps the information will be really useful.

Double layout using Graphic 45 Papers. Had a hard time pulling this together. I must have spent about 6 hours or more, before I finally felt like I could glue stuff on. At this rate I will be in this room forever because I have thousands of photos. Just don't really know where to start.

This is our grandaughter, grandson-in-law and our great grandaughters. Last two pages that I scrapbooked. I was given a really good idea. On the back of your scrapbook pages, put the date the photo was taken, when it was scrapped, and what materials you use. In case you want to send something in to be published, you have all the information. It is a must to send the names of products used or your layouts won't even be considered.

A couple of layouts I did last week. Great granddaughters. I did a lot of sewing and hand stitching on Ayla's and had fun with the curves on Taylors.

These are three projects that my niece and I worked on while she was here. I think they turned out great. Thanks Leanne for the idea. We scraplifted from a project that Leanne had taught. We altered it a little. We completed a 4th one which I have not taken a picture of yet. I think they are really nice.
