WhoIsShe

Photo Details
Poster: retro  (see this users gallery)

Ever since my 4th cousin, Kathy, discovered me through Deco-Pages I've found myself baffled time and time again by such expressions as *second cousin twice removed* and my feeble attempts at guessing who the people in Kathy´s photos are in relation to myself have been pretty hit and miss…mostly miss. Jean aka scrap-genie will testify to this as she hasn´t found me an very apt pupil! This time I have no problem at all as I can say quite honestly that I have no idea who this lady is. Kathy doesn´t know either as she´s the only unidentified relative in her late father´s collection of family photos.

I created this tribute to my unknown relative using backgrounds and elements from the Dusk part of my new kit, From Dawn To Dusk, now in the store.

Gorgeous layout!! I have an old picture with the name Aunt Hatti scribbled on the back. I don't know who she is but I love the picture and want her to be remembered by someone! Your kit is simply beautiful! I love the way you clustered the elements. The puffy, satin heart is really pretty!!

What a wonderful old photo... the clothing looks so 1800s... Reminds me of the movie Gone with the Wind... and the history links tell me the American Civil war started in the 1860s. I wonder if it was taken around that time frame. Do you know anything, like what part of the world she was from? How completely interesting! Your page is simply fantastic! I absolutely love your new Dawn to Dusk kit! What a lovely addition to your heritage scrapbook, I hope you find out who she is...

Lol, I think I´ll have to call her Great Aunt Scarlett but she must have been a Scot and, anyway, as far as I know we don´t have any O´Haras in the family!

What a great photo. What is that behind her and to the left? It almost looks like the front of an old car but this picture obviously predates cars. Can you even imagine wearing all those layers of clothes? Anyway, your new Dusk kit showcases her beautifully. Love the cameo!!

Just had a look at the original. It´s an ornamental fountain Diane! Not that there´s a lot of difference between an old car and a fountain!! LOl!

Beautiful photos and layout! I love the lace and cameo. A while back, I offered to help you look up your genealogy but after a computer crash and lots of side tracking, I'm sure you've obviously guessed I hadn't found much yet. Whoever this woman is, she's beautiful! Hey! At least you have a photo. That's very cool! Usually most of us family history buffs only have names and wonder what they looked like. lol. Gorgeous lo!

The sepia photos look fabulous with your new kit. It is kind of exciting having a mystery relative.....

What a great idea to include an unknown relative to your scrapbook. Love the kit you used to display her photo. Great job.

This is a great kit and I love the way you have scrapped this photo even if you didn't know who it was.
