Fun Challenges at SOA

I did this scrapbook page of my Grandmother for Jen Tapler’s – Template #2 challenge, over at Stamping Out Alzheimer’s.

It is hard to believe that there are only 4 days left to this fabulous event!!!! This page is also another sample for the KSS Challenge: “Remembering“. The winner of this challenge will win a KSS “mystery prize”, value over $75!!!! You can’t win, if you don’t play!

[late addition] This is a photo of my Father’s Mother. She was an amazing lady. A woman’s libber before it even had a name! LOL! She also was a dancer for the stage and in Hollywood back during the silent era. She danced in Cecil B. DeMille 1923 – The Ten Commandments. In this photo, she is wearing a custom for a stage show. She and my Grand Father, (He is the gentleman in uniform in the double spread right before this post), met in the “Theater”. He painted back drops and scenery for the stage and later did a few films, “Heidi” is one film that may sound familiar.  My Grandparents were not famous, just one of  the performers & artists in the background or behind the scenes… and they loved every minute of it!
