100 Years of Us

It's time for a look back at Gingersnap Creations, and for
this challenge, it's a peek into the last century. As some
of you already know, I have lots of family photos and
information, so for this round, you probably aren't surprised
to find I've taken a look back at:


100 Years of Us.

I didn't go all the way back to 1900, but am starting
at 1908, when my Grandma Matdeline was born.



Each twinchie book represents a decade, and is made of
book pages, black cardstock cover, hymnal page spine,
and embellished with one of the tiny squares from Retro
Cafe Art's Assorted Collage Squares page.



All of these books fit into a canning jar that had
been my Grandma's. Not even close to being finished with
the "guts" of the books, but am looking forward to filling
them with memories.

One randomly drawn winner from this challenge (no, not me,
I can't play) will receive a lovely package from Retro Cafe
Arts, who is generously sponsoring this month at Gingersnap
Creations. AND for this last month of challenges, YOU pick
the Ginger Gems, so even if you've never had the chance to
join in, now is the time!

And have you tried Word Art Wednesday? How about What's On
Your Workdesk Wednesday? One post down, keep scrolling . . .
if you dare, it's pretty scary in there!
