4 Generations

I was finally able to give this belated Father's Day gift to my dad today.  He loved it, and even gave me the photo a month ago. I got the oh so subtle hint, and made him this page out of  Bo Bunny's Weekend Market. It's such a great line for masculine pages! This is a photo of my dad,with  his dad, his grandfather, and his son (my brother Bryan). I know it's always been a favorite photo of his, and I was even able to include my Great Grandmother's buttons on here, which I inherited a few years ago.I altered the chipboard frame and number 4 to look like leather, by gluing tissue paper onto them, and inking with various distress inks.
Here's some close-ups of the buttons! 

TFL! Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

  2. I love this type of page especially using inherited buttons and old things from our older relatives. This is a great masculine page and really a beautiful memory with four generations.
