Siblings, June 1957

Here is Jody's LO I lifted: Siblings

 

I've never done a scraplift before - took some work to figure things out! I love so many of Jody's LO's, but this one caught my eye because I have a very similar photo that I swiped from my Aunt's Facebook page. This is my dad and his little sister (my aunt), in June of 1957.

 

Journalling: My Grandma, Fern Kuehn, wrote on the back of the photo, "Sue and Lynn are in a fight. He wants her to ride in the basket of his bike and she wants to walk. They are going to school the last day to get report cards. He won out, but said she screamed all the way."

What a fabulous scraplift! The picture of them having a conflict is so timeless. I am not sure that I would have rode in the basket, but it is a big one. The blending and the colors you have chosen are great- such a reminder of yesterday when life seemed easier and simpler and entertainment was riding a bike.

What a great memory to scrap! You did a fantastic job on the scraplift, too. I love your patterned paper and cluster around the bottom photos. Thanks for joining this special challenge.

Beautiful job on this! I really like the way you warmed up the B&W color scheme and the way you blended your photo into the background. Perfect embellishments, just the right amount, and the little photos down on the bottom are so cute, having their little spat. That photo and story with it are priceless, too, BTW! Looks like something out of Sally, Dick and Jane, sans Jane ;)

Wow, Mikelle - what a gorgeous page. You did a wonderful job on the scraplift and your photos and journaling are priceless. So nice that you had your Grandma's actual words to use and the story is funny and so appropriate to any era!
