It’s been a while since I’ve been able to work on the scrapbook for my dad. I’m very excited to share this scrapbook layout with you that I was able to make yesterday. This layout has pictures of my grandparents.
The left hand page has a Christmas card with my grandparents picture on it. I wish it wasn’t so hard to take pictures of scrapbook pages! The flash always reflects off the picture.
The colors for these pages are Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake and Bravo Burgundy. The Bravo Burgundy cardstock has the large image from the Wedding Sweet stamp set stamped on it in Bravo Burgundy.
Here is a close up of the right page. I used the Lovely as a Tree stamp set to stamp the trees at the base of each page. The large pine tree is stamped in Bravo Burgundy and the smaller trees in the background are stamped in Crumb Cake. You may recognize the basic idea, it’s very much like one of the Lovely as a Tree Christmas cards we made in the last Christmas Card class.
Here’s a close up of the detail. If you look closely you will notice that the Very Vanilla cardstock on the bottom is embossed with the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder. I love the texture it gives!
I love the way the black and white photos look with the layout! They’re just right! This layout is also perfect for my grandparents because of all of the trees. If you knew my grandparents, you would understand!
Thank you for stopping by today!

Charming pages – I like the trees details. (I have better luck if I take the pictures before I insert the pages into the book.)

Hi Nancy! I did take these pictures before putting them into plastic sleeves. They’d really be bad otherwise! 🙂
