Hi all from MadDi in *s*u*n*n*y* Johannesburg.
I have been quite busy these past few weeks spring cleaning my studio and my mind. One of the things I did was go through all of my completed, UNcompleted and UNstarted projects. Now normally my UNcompleted projects are just prototypes that I did to test an idea. The UNstarted projects are numerous. LOL bet lots of you are like me - buying things that I just might tackle one day.
The COMPLETED projects (specifically layouts) were interesting cos they reminded me that simple is sometimes best. Today I want to share with you some of these simple layouts from times long gone. They have reminded me of why I scrap - to retain and visualise the memories. They are all simple layouts and reflect the stye I prefer.
My Uncle and Aunt (Andy and Anne) on their wedding day 1946.
My mum and dad 1947!!!
LOL Di as a a baby 1948.
This photograph was intruiging "the girl from Glasgow, Norman and I taken on board the ship" 1948.
Two different takes on the same photograph of my DD Caroline. I prefer the first!
And me again on my wedding day (the second one). My dress was very much like the patterned pper but it was a very poor photograph!
Lets see some of your old cherished layouts!
Thanks for visiting us and love from Di XXX
Very nice blog. I like the way it was all put together. I also keep family picture in black and white from the early 1900.
