A Simple Project...


I had a lot of fun using some old photos and vintage vocabulary cards to create some projects for Junk Bonanza!  I used a variety of backgrounds including photo folders...


I simply added fun photos and vocabulary cards that I liked with them...isn't she a cutie?


 The same vocabulary card took on a different feeling with an antique photo...I love using old hangers for whimsical displays...



Love the names written on the folder...


I did some with a ghostly Halloween feeling...this one used an old plinth block for a background, and the photo is easily changed out...
 


Love this ghostly old group photo...


Some photos I did in a humorous way...my sense of humor can get pretty out there sometimes and a project like this lends itself well to it...



It was a lot of fun!  I thought it might be fun to try with scans of family photos, too!  Hope you'll try it!


I'm linking to Knick of Time Tuesday - she's having a fun Tatttered Books giveaway, too!

Until next time...
Linda

  2. Hi Linda, these work so brilliantly. I love the combinations of the words with the pictures and your backgrounds are stunning. It'll be fun to do with family photos. I do love a twisted sense of humour too! penny

  4. Hi Linda, What a great idea for the old pictures! I have a ton of old pictures that were my grandmothers. I have been wanting to do something with them but didn't know what to do. Now I have an idea.
    I wanted to get to Junk Bonanza but it didn't work out. I did get to the Bachman Idea House over the weekend and will post some pictures in a couple days.
    Have a great week.

  16. Linda, this is such a great idea and I can see how some real fun could be had with some old pictures and the vocab cards. I'm sending this on to a friend of mine who incorporates old pictures in her artwork. I think this would be right up her alley! Ann
