My Parents Wedding Vintage Layouts

Hi again,

Robin here.

I am still sharing the photos

from my dad's book I have been working on.

After working on these photos

I decided to make a book of just the photos of

mom and dad together.  So these

are the beginning pages of them at their wedding

Unlike weddings today,

there are only a few photos of my 

parents on their wedding day.

They are quite precious photos.

They were married in December 1950

I decided to do all the wedding photo's in Black and white papers

with gold and silver paper for the accents.  I know mom would love

the gold, and dad would love the silver.

So I incorporated both colors, and the pages have 

turned out awesome.

I look at them all the time,

what a treasure trove of photos for our family.

This 8x10 photo is the only large photo

they had made.  I wanted to use product on top of

the photo but not stick anything to the photo.

So I used a sheet protector and cut it apart,

so I have 2 sheets, at 8.5x11 of clear sheets, I then glued the

embellishments on the clear sheet protector.  You 

can do this with a transparency sheet too,

I just didn't have access to any and used 

the sheet protector.

I used:

Glitter gold dot CS

Robin's Nest Wedding Sticker (retired)

Glitter Gold chipboard die cut

White glitter Classic Swirl CS.

Here is an introduction to a new paper.

Wedding Writing.

I framed this photo which I enlarged from a very small

photo, framed it 

on white and then on the Wedding Writing CS.

Silver Glitter Dot CS is background, with Gold 

Glitter Dot Cs as corner frames.

Glitter True Love is Robin's Nest Retired Vellum

Now why there is a photo of the groom by himself

and not the bride, I don't know.

It usually isn't the case, I also enlarged this photo 

from a small photo.

In all the photos of our family, there are lots of photos of mom,

but not so many of dad.  Dad was usually the

person behind the camera.

I used

Black Marble CS (Retired)

 with only their friends with them.

Just the 4 of them.

This is the original photo of the big one I had 

previously.

This page will go in my Dad's book,

I am doing a book of them together as well.

But I decided, I had to show in his book that

they did get married.

I used:

Glitter Silver Dot CS

Wedding Writing CS New

back side of the Wedding Writing CS

Well there it is,

the wedding of my parents 

in 1950.

Not a lot of photos,

but enough none the less to have some

great memories of this special

occasion.

When mom died they were married 62 years!

So Wonderful!

Ciao,

Robin
