BUBBLYSCRUMPTIOUS CHALLENGE 6 - VINTAGE!

Gosh.....2 posts in one day???  I will need another holiday at this rate hahahahaha!!! The new challenge over on BUBBLY SCRUMPTIOUS this week is....

VINTAGE

There are some really lovely entries so why not pop over for a look and have a go!!!  We also have an ongoing MONTHLY CHALLENGE which has a lovely prize this month of a Maya Road chippie house!!!

My entry for this weeks challenge is a lovely picture of my Great-Grandmother, Martha.  Remember her?  She is the one I blogged about last week, who dies in the trap accident.  This pic was taken in 1890.

My Gran & my Mum were the split image of her at the same age!!!  I can also see my sister there too!!! hehe looks like I hung it crooked, better go put that right later!!!  Thank you so much for taking a look at Martha today, HUGS XXX

Lovely little hanging Karen, I'm sure she'd appreciate all the feminine touches (even if she does look a bit stern - they always did in the pics back then, didn't they? Probably because they had to stand still for so darned long for them - lol!)
