#12 Past Meets Present [Mar 20-26]

[happyrobyn]

This week, I am giving you permission to use non-heritage photos in your heritage layout! The only catch is there needs to be at least one heritage (1970's or before) picture in the layout, too. I am calling the challenge 'Past Meets Present' because I want you to use a heritage picture of someone and then on the same layout, use a picture of that same person from many years later.

Here's my example: My Brother, Paul (http://www.scrapartist.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=9355&limit=last7)

Remember, if you post before Sunday night at midnight, you will receive the second link to my War kit (http://www.scrapartist.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=9020&cat=500&ppuser=1707). I think I'll give away the solid papers this week.

I love it Punky! Thanks so much for playing! I will PM the link to the War kit papers at the end of the week.

Just posted another example. Wayne's Life (http://www.scrapartist.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=9423&limit=last7)

This was actually a practice cover I made for a magazine I made for my Dad's 60th birthday last summer (Wayne Magazine (http://www.waynemagazine.com)). I didn't end up using this cover but it fit this challenge.

Here is another example for you: Golden Anniversary (http://www.scrapartist.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=9434&limit=last7)

Not your usual style of Heritage LO but I guess this is Scrapartist :) These 2 photos are of me about 50 years apart

Digged for some old pictures of my mom... and realized that I have almost no recent pictures of her ...arggghhhh..gotta do something about that!

Wow Gerarda. This is one awesome layout. Love the colorization on the photo. Now stop scrapping and go take some pictures of your mom!

[nevache]

Yes, ma'am, if you say so... Don't be angry with me if it takes a few weeks, as she's not exactly living next door...:-)))

[happyrobyn]

LOL Gerarda! I need to get some recent pictures of my mom, too.

Robyn, here is my brother Jim. He was so cute as a child, and he will kill me if he sees this layout, but I think it turned out great. It has the highlights of his life, lol

Jean - that layout is just perfect! Exactly what this challenge is all about. Thanks for taking the challenge!!

[mkjean]

I decided that I should not leave out the other brother, so here is one about him. That's all. I don't have any more brothers lol!

I reworked my son's layout to fit with the challenge this week. Also, I added some of the information we uncovered for the report. This is going to be a very nice way to share what we uncovered for other family members. The flag in Joe R's famous photograph was taken from my grandfather's ship.

[happyrobyn]

Thank you for posting this. That journaling is so great.

[SteinwaysMom]

This is combo entry for Heritage and Out of the Box (used a girly kit for a guy layout). Dad died in '78 so my 'contemporary' photo is a newspaper clipping from 1973 when he was 43 years old.

I have to thank you for these challenges because I would have NEVER done this otherwise - it's been very therapeutic in ways...

Debra - I already gushed over this one in my comments on the layout itself. But I have to say it one more time ... that is a truly amazing layout! Just gorgeous!!!

[Belles]

although I have put it in the Altered Art gallery area but will add this link here as well. Thanks Robyn.

It has me at about 7 and me as I am now in the charm around my neck.

Thank you for the challenges… it's nice to get the stories down on paper with the photos!

[happyrobyn]

Love it Patty! Thanks for posting it.

Had a little bit of fun with this one. Thank goodness someone thinks up these challenges!

Kim - that is so cool. Love how the house is so symbolic.

Good morning all! I just wanted to let you know that I PM'd all of you that took the Past Meets Present challenge. If you participated and did not receive the link, please PM me with a link to your layout and I will send you the link to the prize.

I look forward to seeing PINK in the gallery this week!!!
