Hi guys!!!

I have a quick and fun card to share that I created for the September Facebook

 challenge for Darkroom Door.  Every month there is a different challenge

I created a background for this card using stamps from the Photography set.  I just repeated the image for the background.  The Film strip border stamp was used along with camera stamps.

I love the Box Brownie stamp!!  This is the closest I have to a camera like that.  Paid $5. for it !!

Try It Tuesday~ Idea, with an old Polaroid camera.

Hi guys! I have something super cool to show, well it is to me 

and I love the story that came with it even more~

My mom handed me this but in the box and asked me if I would be interested in this.

She said my grandpa bought it in 1958 and gave it to my grandma for Christmas that year~ I never even  opened the box, I just said yes!!!

My grand girls~a selfie at Disney:)

Makes a GREAT photo display piece~don't you think?

She continued with the story~

The camera had not been used very much because the film and film developer (solution) was expensive, too expensive for my grandparents to be snapping tons of pictures.  After you took a picture, you pulled it out and put the solution over the picture.~ if you failed to use the solution the photo would go black. 

I can see my grandpa, so proud, to own the latest, greatest camera of the day.  The inside of the camera was in very good condition~the leather was not cracked or damaged:)

When it was put up a film cartridge was left inside:):)  I pulled it out and it crumbled:)

I found out more information by using Google~

This camera ,on Ebay, sells for about $40, if you have the leather case it came with ( sold separately), about $100.  It doesn't matter to me the monetary value, but I adore having a piece of family history!!

 A family treasure, as my son says:)

I have one photo that was taken with this camera and it had to be restored because the quality was so bad.  The photo had already started to fade really bad.

My dad and his girls~ sis and me!!!!

See ya soon~
