More than Words Challenge - August - Yesterday & Vintage






Word Inspiration - YESTERDAY
Creative Challenge - VINTAGE

What does the word YESTERDAY inspire you to create?
You can choose to use the actual word somewhere on your project 
or simply be inspired by it.  Since words are an integral part of our challenges, we want to know how this month's word stimulated your creative process, so please do explain in your blog post how
it inspired you if it isn't obvious in your work.

We're heading back in time this month with a VINTAGE creative challenge. Think sepia or black and white photos, subdued colours and gorgeous textures. The vintage style evokes a sense of history with images and elements associated with a forgotten (or unforgotten thanks to the wonderful hobby of scrapbooking) past. You might like to use an old photograph, a patterned paper with an antique look or an old-fashioned embellishment on your project. Look back to the past for your inspiration!

 This is a wonderful photo of my late father who enjoyed being creative even in his last years. The colour palette that I have used was inspired by the VINTAGE look and the photo reminds me of my dad. It still feel like only YESTERDAY when he was with us. The dragonfly, dandelion stamping and rose stencil are 
all a nod to my father's love of nature.
