My FIL recently passed and I have a couple of family photo albums of my husband as a baby and young child. I’d like to scrap a couple of these but he was born in 1966 so bright modern papers don’t enhance these photos the way I would like.
Is there a vintage baby line that I haven’t found? I’ve looked at the Graphic 45 but I don’t love that manufacturer…their designs are just so busy! Am I missing another line that may work for this era? Even an old one I may be able to find on eBay?

grammadee what is the paper line you liked for your dh? That wasn't a baby line. Trying to remember the newer baby line I saw that had soft neutral colours. Will be back if/when I find it. |

Sorry for the loss of your FIL I was born in 1966 as well……didn’t think I would have to do vintage though for my baby photos |

Thank you for the link to Pretty Little Studio!!! That is EXACTLY what I was looking for! I just got my order today and the diecuts are perfect! The exact style that both of our baby books have in them as well. Some may not think of this as ‘vintage’ but 50s, 60s and 70s don’t go well with modern lines. And I think of antique for older photos. Can’t wait to get busy with this project!!! |
