It is sooooo good to be back and posting the Heritage Challenge! Thank you all for being patient with me and a HUGE thank you to Gabi (Garynka) for holding down the fort in my absence!!
The challenge this week is a fun one! But first I must give you a vocabulary lesson...
ec-lec-tic
Pronunciation
–adjective
1. selecting or choosing from various sources.
2. made up of what is selected from different sources.
3. not following any one system, as of philosophy, medicine, etc., but selecting and using what are considered the best elements of all systems.
4. noting or pertaining to works of architecture, decoration, landscaping, etc., produced by a certain person or during a certain period, that derive from a wide range of historic styles, the style in each instance often being chosen for its fancied appropriateness to local tradition, local geography, the purpose to be served, or the cultural background of the client.
So now having read those definitions, I want you to interpret the word [I]eclectic however you want and turn it into a scrapbook page. The only rule is that the pictures should be from the 1970's and before.
Have fun and please post your layouts to the Heritage Challenge Gallery and leave us a link in this thread so we can go check out what you create.
Here is my sample: 1943 (http://www.scrapartist.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=63258)
