When I think of vintage what comes to mind is not just the classic yellowing photograph that is slowing falling apart, but also of the timeless joys that can be celebrated over the years. One such joy is music shared between generations.
For this challenge I used:
- PDPA Aging Tool Texture
- Picture of MomMom playing piano
- PDPA Faded Marble Texture
Really, I think I just liked the idea of using this challenge to remember my grandmother, MomMom. As I look at the picture I can still remember that while it may have gotten difficult for her to dance, she never lost the ability to express the liveliness of the music deep in her soul.

what I got straightaway was a HUGE hit of nostalgia, for my grandparents, in particular for their magical qualities that I so admired without even knowing I was admiring them...

ReplyDeleteI still have memories of listening to records on the Victrola in the 40's. Learning to ball room dance with my father and listening to my mother play the piano ... music was a most wonderful part of my growing up years ... thank you for the memories.
