Annie Tobin Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 I wasn't going to post this one as the truth can sometimes be cruel but I created it for personal reasons and then decided to post it because it IS the truth! :) Not all grandparent relationships are happy stories and some are far worse than mine. I wasn't going to pretty the story up because that would be telling a lie and I did learn a lot from mum's parents. Thanks for takin a peek!
Cassel Posted September 18, 2018 Author Posted September 18, 2018 Annie, you are quite correct. All people and relationships are not always rosy, and to think that is the case, is misleading ourselves. Yet, the story is what it is. Facts are facts. And even bad stories can still have their place in history (even if sometimes, we would rather forget it). At least, your story is safe in this layout as it is small enough to be hard to read.
Annie Tobin Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 Thank you dear Cassel, very much appreciate your comment. <3
Cristina Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Dear Annie, there is no perfect life or a perfect family... I guess most of the people can say that the ideal family only exists in advertising. You created a page full of sentiment and that makes it beautiful. Well done, my friend. <3
Annie Tobin Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 Dear Cristina, thank you so much for your encouraging comment. I take your comment and Cassel's to heart for they are the truth of the matter. Much love to you both … Annie T
Michele Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 Annie, I think you did a wonderful job on a difficult subject. ~ Michele
Annie Tobin Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 You are so lovely Michele, thank you very much, appreciate it. <3
Royanne Hewko Posted September 25, 2018 Posted September 25, 2018 My maternal grandparents. I tried to make my page look "old" by keeping everything brownish. I used Cassel's Grungy edge to make the grunge effect around the edge of the paper. I found newspaper and lighted the opacity and erased some of the typing. I found a tag I liked and made a template out of it. This was a great challenge, I had to go to other family members to get the pictures. I have not yet received any of my paternal grandparents.
Cristina Posted September 26, 2018 Posted September 26, 2018 Royanne, this is really a lovely layout. Well done.
AprilDawn Posted September 27, 2018 Posted September 27, 2018 lovely pages for this challenge.. well done everyone! Dawn.
