Apple pickin' time

Love this photo and decided to go old school for this page.
There are times when you just gotta!
 I didn't want typical fall colors - mostly because I
didn't have any in my stash.
 Therefore, keying of the kidlets clothes found
a sort of autumn match.
 Love how it turned out.

A couple of old Fogies

This is so adorable and lots of fun.

 So for 100 days at school, the school decided that
the kidlets should come to school
as old fogies - old people
or really really old people.
Like 100 years old.
 And aren't they a hoot.
Old school.
LOL.

And from what I understand, the grandkidlets
were total hams about it.
Look the way they are leaning on the canes.
LOL.
I only hope to look that good at 100.
Echo Park paper that reminded me of my gram's wallpaper
and of course and old telephone from My
Mind's Eye helps set the tone.

Love the mustache.

A bit monochromatic

Which I love every now and then and it is
perfect for this photo of Owen.
Love the hat, the pose, the smile.
Love this paper from Pebbles and paired it up
with some old Basic Grey and
just a bit of embellishment that went sort of
'old' school. 
It totally focuses on the photo.

Turkey ribbons


I must apologize for the photo quality and since these 
bad boys have been mailed - this is it.
So shock upon shock 
I didn't have a turkey stamp, sticker or die cut.
No clue how that happened so I stopped by HL and picked
up the one and only turkey stamp they had.
Another shock, (I know they're coming fast) they didn't have
turkey stickers either. 
Also I shocker I only have 2 granddaughters yet I 
ended up with more girly colors on the turkeys.
I used water color pencils to color them in because
I was totally out of control and a danger 
to all stamped turkeys using regular watercolors.

Anyhoo, if you follow Ashi (Soaphousemama) you know
I jacked these fun ribbons from her.
I wanted to change up doing the cards and I also
had the presence of mind to add
a Zot on the back to they can either wear them or 
stick them somewhere.

I totally used a bunch of scraps too.
And I used punches though I did cut the banners
by hand.

Each one has their name on it by MAMBI alphas.
Keeping in touch with the grands
with snail mail.
Sometimes the old school technology works best.
