Ancestry Photo Fun

For all us loving collage…we always need to have vintage photos and papers. Thanks to one of my favorite aunts, I got some real vintage photos of my ancestors.

Now I know why I also look good in hats!

I have spent the last two days just scanning away a whole box of vintage ephemera. There’s at least 6-8 more hours of scanning yet to be done, but it’s so much fun! And speaking of fun…

My grandmother and great aunt are in this picture (hint… both with their eyes closed!) Just check out those fancy hats!!

Where does the weekend go?!?!

Have a happy Monday!

  3. Lucky you to have such great pictures. I loved how you used some at SilverBella! I only have a few, but I'm going to use them more often. Take care-I'm so glad Jodie forced you (and me) into blogging
