My Memories is having a fantastic weekend!They have a Blog Train where at least 35 designers are giving away free kits! I am having a ball collecting so many goodies! Go to http://www.mymemories.com and click on the "blog/forum" tab. Start at catdesignz and work your way through. The MyMemories Facebook page has been running contests all day, since it's National Scrapbook Day. Right now they have a contest to do a page where whatever photos you use must be black & white.
Here's my first. A photo of my great-grandfather Walter and my great-grandmother Araminta Owen. Don't they look lovely?
And here's my second entry. My Aunt Irene is in the middle. She is Araminta and Walter's daughter. Irene's daughter, Belle, was getting married to Frank Allen. His mom is on the left and my mother is on the right.
This week's MyMemories Blog challenge is the number 5, so here are 5 photos of Luke - taken on his first birthday. I mounted the photos over 5 papers, decorated with 5 buttons on the corners and 5 flowers on the vine. Happy Birthday Sweet Guy! Notice the bib says "Grandma gives the best Hugs!" Ain't it the truth!!!
