Connect together

This layout was inspired by the Connect Story Stamp theme. 

I really found this stamp set very versatile. I found so many ways to use multiple stamps on this layout. 

The collection, Pink Paislee’s Switchboard, was also so very perfect for this layout! I had received the 6x6 paper pad, dies and stickers as a door prize for attending a crop ages ago and it was calling to me when I knew I wanted to tell the story.

I used this sketch to begin this layout. The I decided to create my own scallop border, shown in the sketch,   by using the dial paper and lining them up. Love that small touch!

Now this photo is not the best quality but, I went on search for the print of this and only found one original   scrapped with the background cut away, or the index print back from the negative sheet. This photo was taken on advantix film that is in the cartridges. Getting it reprinted would have required the whole being digitized and the cost and time was prohibitive for this project. The other photos on the roll were not worthy of the effort either. So I took a picture of the index sheet and printed small. Love having it on the layout, even in this state. The other photos on this layout were images of a phone I used to call him on. 

I love having this story documented. My kids seemed to be interested in how so much in technology has changed how we connect. So happy to add this to my albums!

Thanks for stopping by!
