Theme Thursday - Couples

Everyone knows by now my favorite thing to do is a vintage page, and the challenge topic of "Couples" led me straight to this photo of my father and mother in their "courting days". It is one of my favorite photos. Thank you for the challenge, Theme Thursday, and the opportunity to feature them once again!

    I got so excited when I saw your use of torn paper. What a fantastic effect you've created. I was also attracted to the rich colour then I read that it is your parents in the photo. A very personal and intriguing piece!

    Wow, Bev, your collage is amazing. I love the deep colours and the scrappy pieces of paper and stitches effect. The photo of your parents is priceless. Absolutely beautiful.
