Family Portrait

How photography has changed over the centuries but the family photo is still the same, memories from the past, moments caught in time.  This week the Theme Thursday challenge is 'Family.'  I used Tim Holtz stamps and a piece of film strip ribbon for this card.  

As a little girl, I used to love going through my parents' albums, all the photos mounted with little silver corners on black paper were a treasure.   The most fascinating part was looking at the faces and finding something familiar, someone I was related to but had never met, someone from another time and recognizing that there were likenesses to myself or my sisters or parents; the family I belonged to.   Thanks for looking - cheers!
