April Potpourri

You have them, we all have them.  They tend to get darker over time but you can still see the images.  Yup, I'm talkin' about them old Polaroid pictures.....  Back when I was in high school they were "the" camera!  I can remember pulling the film out and waiting patiently for the film to develop......if you peeled it off too soon the photo was too light....  Then, they came out with the front ejecting Polaroid, you took the picture and it came out of the front of the camera.  You then watched the picture develop right before your eyes! 

Get them old Polaroids out and scrap 'em!  That's your challenge for this month.  If you don't have any (gasp!) you can frame/mat your pictures so they look like 'em!  Have fun with this!

Here's mine......(yup, that's me....."pre" grey hair lol)

we didn't have a Polaroid, but I remember my Grandma had one.  Here's my take on the challenge.

thank you Sherrie.  these are Bo Bunny and Reminisce pp.  love the colors and the cute little animal pp. 

I'm scrapping a book of 8 1/2 x 11 with the single pics from when our girls were little.  I have a stack of random photos and thought these would be fun to do this way.

I never owned a polaroid, I think I have one from when I worked at Eckerd drugs camera department and we played with one.  Hope I can find it.

Beautiful LO Sherrie adorable photo.

Love that photo Peggy, very cute LO.

I still have a polaroid!!! As a teacher, I took a class on how to use your polaroid to promote learning in the classroom. But once digital cameras hit the market, it was much easier and WAY CHEAPER to use my digital. So my polaroid sits in its box.
