This is the second page for my great grandparents layout. The scanner made the photos look really yellow but they're not actually. I used non SU brown cardstock and did not have ink to match so
Journalling reads:William and Pearl MacLellan – my Great Grandparents. They were married June 24, 1919.
William Everett MacLellan was born Jan 6, 1891 and died July 28, 1976. WWI veteran Enlisted April 19,1915 discharged March 13, 1919 Served in Canada, UK and France with the 87th Battalion until wounded in action. Was caretaker at Summerside Post Office 1937-1945 and farmed.
Emmaline “Pearl” Smith was born June 25, 1899 and died June 15, 1987. Pearl was a member of the Springfield Anglican Church, ACW, and Pleasant Valley’s Women’s Institute.

I was almost 1 year old when my great-grandfather died so I don’t remember him at all. I do remember “Nanny”. Before starting school I would go to her house where my father’s Aunt Marion would baby-sit me every that my mother taught school.

This is one of my favorites of all you've posted, the colors, tag title and embellishments are perfect for the vintage feel. I have some heritage pages to do and keep putting them aside, but after seeing some of your wonderful I just may get them done one of these days!
