so here is my family traditions altered book page. my tradition is camping with my family. it's the one thing that we ALWAYS do together and i absolutely love it. we go camping with a huge group of family friends. people that my dad has known since he was in middle school so all of us kids have grown up together and are all best friends. i love it, plain and simple.
so for my page i did a chalk background of some trees just to fill up some space, but to still make it light enough so i could write over it. i then put on the red plaid ribbon because it looks like the tablecloth that we use on our picnic tables whenever we go camping. i added the photos from our different trips: atving at steamboat, the landscape at dot sero, and our camp on lake mcconaughy. i burnt the edges to represent the campfires that we always have. i stuck on some leaves i found at my house and then wrote a little something on the left had side.
can i just say that i love this project? it's really hard for me because i'm not a traditional artist, but i just love the mixed media thing, it's awesome. i will do my family history page soon... once i figure out my family history. i have no idea what to do.

I am so glad you like the book and are so willing to go outside your zone.
ReplyDeleteThe whole purpose of these family pages is to determine influences on who you are, does that help with the family history?
