Vintage Beach LO of my great grandparents!
Recently my grandma gave away all of the pictures she had to family members and lucky me I had first dibs.So one of the pictures that I absolutely adore is this picture of my great grandparents in Cuba. I never met them being that they passed away before I was born but this picture really gives me an insight into how they were. The picture shows an air of confidence between them and I wanted to make a layout with the picture rather than just stick in a photo album. This was a toughie for me because I had to incorporate vintage and a beach theme into one layout with the items I already had. But with some K&Co Paper, my Cricut, some of my great grandma's lace and trim(which my grandma gave me as well) and one of my mom's crochet flower and I made it! The title is in Spanish being that it is in Cuba it says"The Beach in the 50s". TFL!
Materials:
Cricut Carts
Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art(Bottom border)
Sesame Street Seasons(Sun)
Ashlyn's Alphabet(Title)
Recollections Flowers(Blue Flowers)
Lace and trim are my great grandmother's who used to sew dresses
