I love that you have used your grandmother's pictures, thank you for sharing.

That you use your Grandmother's childhood photos touches my heart. And i love the bright colors you used to celebrate her.

I think it is so fitting that you did a page with your Grandmother on it and today is Mothers Day. I love her braids and her cute hat. They seem to add to the whimsy here. So fun!!♥️♥️♥️

Love this Barbara. I can totally see how you might change your perspective on your grandmother. You would have only ever known her as an adult. Now you get to see some of the carefree child in her. What a great concept. ❤

Beautiful! I love, love, love that this is changing your feelings about, or your perceptions of, your grandmother. In my years of doing genealogy, it is when I start learning more about the lives of my ancestors, and finding photos of them, that I feel a stronger familial connection to them - even those I didn't know very well or at all. I have no memories of my great-grandmother but when I was looking recently at a photo of her, I could see how my grandmother resembled her and see the person who raised my grandma. I am so happy you're doing this series because I'm loving playing around with their photos even more! 💖

This is a really special and personal spread with your grandmother. It's inspiring me to get copies of some that I have also of my grandmother. I know there are some great photos hiding. The yellow and the bit of orange make your photos pop and kind of bring them into current times. Love all of it.

Your Grandmother was a cute child and I really like that not only did you place her images in this journal, I like the way you did so. Thank you, Barbara.

So happy that you did this second page w/ another photo of your grandmother...it turned out beautifully whimsical!! 💜🦋💛 When we see our relatives as children/people, it can helps us to put things into perspective & heal!! Your grandmother was born circa WWI & a young lady during WWII...I'm sure life was very difficult for her!! 😘 LOVE & HUGS to you, Barbara!! 🤗❤️🤗

What a cute photo of your Grandma! I love how you're using family photos.

Wow, this is so lovely. You have made both of these pages so meaningful and dear to your heart, which makes it even more special. Every little detail you add makes it that much more unique and vibrant. Always appreciate your amazing inspirations! 🤗❤️❤️❤️

Love these...grandmas are truly amazing. Thank you also for the freebies

These photos are really delightful! I love the hat and large braid bows on today's! The frames look great, thanks for the freebies and great ideas!

That makes perfect sense Barbara. You've placed your grandmother in a caring place and it does make your heart change. Same thing happens when I pray for people who I don't really know or maybe don't like too much. I end up being more tender-hearted towards them.

Love this spread, the whole double page, you created them beautifully with your Grandmothers photo's... how delightful...

Stunning, beautiful, special and so precious, love these two pages 🏆👌🌷♥️

This page spread is wonderful, Barbara! I love learning that you see a transformation in your relationship with your grandmother from doing this. That is so interesting, really! Thsnk you for this post. ☺

So beautiful, love what you did here, gave me inspiration, and Grandmas are so special, mine sure was.

It's important that twine be happy! 🤩

😊 I understand what you mean sweetie, seeing your grandmother in a different way now that you made these pages. 😊 I love the bright colors and the splatters. Sending a big hug

Barbara: these two pages are just endearing. I do like the larger picture of your grandmother. I think it’s that hat. It is so cute. You can almost see her walking, with her friends, all dressed up, chatting away, on a Sunday afternoon. I wonder what they would be talking about? Carol from California

I'm usually not a fan of bright colors. But, I truly love both of these pages.🧡💛💙 They are so sweet & cheery. You have a knack of capturing & creating such a delightful feel of whimsy. You always bring a smile and peaceful feeling for me. Ty.💛💗💛

this was adorable, grandmas are very special and unique aren't they?

Really beautiful and special family bond

You did a beautiful job with your grandma, it's nice how you were able to see her in a different way, my grandmother was an awful woman, nasty and difficult, I wish I could change the way she was seen but I never saw any photos of her as a child, I'm so glad you were able to see your grandma in a different light.

Your insight into how your project made you feel differently about your grandmother struck a chord with me. I am inspired to use your experience to make a playful page using a family photo of someone, to help me with changing my perspective! Today it’s Mothers Day in Canada and your video spoke to me, thank you!💕🇨🇦

Thank you so much for the adorable frames Barbara !

Beautiful page❤ it’s amazing how you connected two pages together. I love it❤

I love both pages and really want to try something like it with my old family pictures. 💕

Adorable, when you were picking out the colors I was really questioning it, but the results are fantastic. You’re so artistic. Thank you so much for this video.

Barbara, that makes perfect sense about how you feel about your Grandma. Seeing her differently as a child. My Grandpa was born in 1915 also. I have made a family tree, nothing elaborate, but wanted to add photos to put a face with the names. I need to get that project going. Thanks for sharing your Grandma with us. I love the big ribbons and hat on your Grandma. TFS! These turned out fabulous! ❤

Another great video with another great page! Thanks for sharing, and again, thanks for the frame freebies.

Es ist richtig schön, dass du die Arbeit mit den Familienfotos so genießt. 😊 Das sind aber auch tolle Fotos. Ich finde deinen fröhlichen Stil der Umsetzung zu den dunklen Fotos super passend. Jetzt vermitteln sie eine ganz andere Stimmung. Sehr schönes Video. 👍 Liebe Grüße Nicole

Beautiful page..

Looks great! The pages work well together! Such fun!!!

Hi Barbara!!! What a great layout for your journal. Loved the frame twine, yellow happy color. 💜💜💜

Thanks so much for sharing! Great inspiration. 💛✨🧡

I just brought a beautiful victorian photo album from a charity shop with the gorgeous floral circle photo frames inside. The shop assistant says she uses her for old family photos, I want to use mine as a journal and just thinking about old vintage photos huh gorgeous journal and love how it celebrates youe grandmas life etc ❤😊

Hi Barbara - i really love how this came out - both pages are beautiful - i truly do hope you continue these pages - using or not using family photos lol - i am finding this very inspiring - thank you so much - your digi kits are wonderful xx

Love these, I totally know what you mean about seeing your Grandma differently. When I see old photos of my Grandma or my Mom when they were young it does make me sit and wonder about what they might have been like as children. We can conjure up sweet tales can’t we?

I love this so much! I have been wanting to do this with some of my grandparents photos. Thank you for the motivation and inspiration

G'day Barbara. I understand 100% what you mean. And this turned out great. Love it.

Very nice Barbara.. my relationship with my grandmother was not the best but I still cared for her, she was born in 1918 crazy 😮

Maybe you can relate more to your grandmother as a child. Love your page. I am made to ponder some of my relationships. Thank you for your video.

Outstanding page!!!

So beautiful ❤

Barbara, thanks again for the "frame" freebies. All of my Mother's Day cards featured a silhouette coming through the frame with a vintage botanical background. The cards were hits with their recipients. Happy Crafting! Michelle / byBruton

That's such a cool photo with the big bows! Yummy wax I have the same from inca gold. Liquid glass is good too, self levelling but slow drying. What a great sentence "glue the wings on my Grandma" 😄 . Lol happy twine 🙊. I get what you mean by old photos changing how you view the person as we only know them once they were changed by life's circumstances. Great page, lovely with the facing one! Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖

Thank you for the frames Barbara. I'm going to try what you created. 😀

My room is a bit dark right now because the sun is just setting and i haven't turned the lights on yet, so when that yellow cardstock showed up it lit up the whole screen i actually had to turn the brightness down a little lol. Gorgeous page, and i wish i had some papers or something in this delicious vibrant colour

I absolutely love this!😊

Beautiful ❤

Liebe Barbara, beide Seiten mit deiner Großmutter passen perfekt zusammen, ich hätte auch so gerne Fotos von meinen Omas als Kind aber leider kenne ich nur ein Babyfoto und das liebe ich umso mehr 😊 Eine sehr schöne Erinnerungen hast du hier erschaffen ❤ So frisch und modern 😍 gefällt mir sehr gut ❤

Beautiful

Cute and Beautiful🤩😍

Thank you.

Love it

Beautiful ❤️

Thank you for the whimsical pages of your grandmother it is can I change the way you look at her? I know I would like to do it also for my grandmother thanks for the inspiration!

Barbra I think it makes more since to have family photos in your journal than those tim holtz people who some day someone in your family are going to say who are these people that no one nows. And I love your grandmother's photos so much better

Special 👍🏽

Fabulous, your Grandmas generation were brought up in a very strict way, must have been very scary times during the war as well. She looks gorgeous xxxxx🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

You and your grandmother definitely family!

My parents fled a Russian invasion and made a life in Canada. My brother and I did not get to grow up knowing grandparents or most of our Aunts, Uncles and Cousins who were trapped behind an Iron Curtain. Treasure your memories, I wish I could say something like ‘my grandmother used to bake my favourite cookies’, etc. 😘

❤

❤️☀️🪴🇨🇦

So special, Barbara! I love the butterfly wings. Funnily enough, when I recently made a similar collage based on your first video, I decided not to cut the base off the image - and I was very happy with the result. P.S. I managed to be courageous, and put a picture up on Instagram - tagging and thanking you for the inspiration. And yes, my grandmother was rather strict as well, so it was lovely to create something wherein she seems softer and happier. 🧡💚🤎
