Hi Everyone, another couple of scrapbook pages. Both completely different feelings in each. My #2 brother's birthday is today and I don't like to let it pass without doing something. This year a scrapbook page. I really enjoyed putting this together with a photo of when he was about 14-16 years of age. I duplicated the page and changed it to Father for his 3 daughters. I added daffodils as it was something the girls had as a memory at his funeral. I love the fact that being digital, I can send a copy to his daughters so they can print or just keep as is.

Then I decided to make another of my son as a lad. We lived in Saudi Arabia at the time and he was a Boy Scout, a very proud one. I coloured the template elements to match the photo, then added papers where I thought they should be.

Awww these are fab Faith and what a lovely way to hold memories hugs Sue x
ReplyDeleteI love the contrast between these layouts, Faith. The vintage look with a pop of colour is perfect for your tribute to your brother and the second one has a more sunny and playful feel. Seems such a long time since my boys were boy scouts lol!
ReplyDeleteHope you are keeping well and have a good weekend.
Hugs

Oh Faith, I love these layouts! The one for your brother is so beautiful! I didn't realize that he passed a year before Dwayne. I love that you put a memory for his daughters with the daffodils. Handsome boy he was. I love the quote, it is so true isn't it?! I know his daughters will treasure this amazing layout. I can't believe how different the second layout of Chris is. I love it too, I love the bold colors of the Boy Scouts and the sweet photo of Chris. He does indeed look very proud as he should have been. You do so great with these digital layouts, but then you do so well with all digital stuff!!! Hugs, Brenda
