Family Reunion - August long weekend

I've done some reunion layouts, trying to follow the Scrappy Ladies challenge sketches..

2012 Reunion

I have finally got back on track - well, it will be short lived as we are getting ready to do a trip down the Oregon coast in the motorhome.    I did manage to get challenge 30 done though (due July 28th):

Pre-wedding photo

I couldn't get the colour right on this photo but I still wanted to use it.  It was taken in my basement suite in Prince George sometime during the summer (or fall) of 1974:

I had a great time at Fabricland Saturday.  Decided I'd drop by to see what they had that I could use for the "dress" ~ pleasant surprise to see a large Special sale weekend for members - a lot marked to 70% off.   I got gorgeous different sheers/laces and scrap denim to patch Larry's jeans (finally got that done today!) and even some gorgeous red fabric to make myself a blouse - all for $20.     The "flower" to the left in the close up was made with a scrap of 1.25" wide sheer with embroidered scallop border.   If you look closely, the button I used for its centre is a rose.
