Hilda.

I created one 12" x 12" Scrapbook page using a photo of my maternal Grandmother, Heiltje (Hilda) Johanna Gertruida Pelser. The photo was taken and developed by my father Petrus ( Piet ) Johannes Smit.

I have scrapbooked her before, you can see the layout here.

The reason I scrapbooked the photo again, is that I have discovered new information about her, which I have added to the back of the page.

My inspiration was "Haute Couture" by Karen McIvor from the book Total Scrapbooking by Sarah Mason and Karen McIvor.
