Heritage Scrapbook 12 x 12 I have to tell you what I do to get old photos as you cannot see the journaling. I love to do these pages, but neither side of the family will give up their photos, which is too bad as they are going to get yellow. They love to look at my scrapping, but are attached to their pictures soooooo I go to Antique shops and yard sales! I make up stories about the people, but I do say they are not my relatives. It's fun and I have gotten some really cool old photos.

I've been lucky in the fact my family has been happy to share photos with me for the most part. Sometimes they even give me their originals for me to keep since they know I do genealogy and I will take care of the photos. Have you shown your beautiful pages to them? Maybe if they see what you're trying to do, they will let you borrow them to make copies or they will make copies for you?
Love this page! Love your idea for using non-family old photos. Great way to get samples to show people when you don't have the old photos of your own family.
