A 70s take on FS2S.


Every year during the late 70's and all the 1980s my parents would go camping at Easts beach.The whole family would go there in various groupings depending on what was happening with work etc.In this case my fiance brought my nephew there,wearing his new school uniform to show Nanna and Pa how smart he looked as he was starting school soon afterwards and was so excited.
I've used a mixture of white alphas for the title plus some vellum I have kept for 10 years(just shows..it did come in handy!)plus some patterned paper to suit the era.The lined Adorn it-Caroleees creation paper was useful to write the journalling on as it was quite a long explanation.

Geez, the photo of Nathan reminds me so much of how my little brother looked at that age. Remarkable. A great story and some wonderful history remembered in this page Julene.

Gosh those all photos get me all the time! That yellow seemed to pervade them & thus giving them that 70's feel. A top Lo with marvellous journaling, so well styled. Thanks for playing with us at FS2S!
