I have been sorting through my old photos and have found loads that were taken by my father when he was in the RAF during the last war. It seems such a shame not to do something with them and I would thought I would preserve them in an album and wondered if there were any papers/embellishments suitable for the RAF/planes theme. If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them.
On QVC today they had some war memories papers and velums item 858151.
Lisa.
Yes, thanks Lisa. I've had a look already. At least I know they are available.
I have a couple of sheets from the 12x12 magazine if they are any good. PM me if youre interested and I'll dig them out and let you know what I've got.
I did a page of my Dad when he was called up into the RAF in 1952 - I used some stripey grey/blue paper which was K&Co I think - just the right colours - will have a look and see if I have any more to make sure
Ah yes - found the other sheet - don't we always buy 2 and only use one??!! It is K&Co 12x12 Lavender Strip Flat Paper Item no 643077 637931 - it certainly doesn't look lavender to me!!
How do I get a picture of my page onto here for you to see it?? I'll have a go!
I did a page of my dear old Dad when he was called up in the early 50's and used a K&Co paper called Lavender Stripe Flat Paper - item code 643077 637931. It certainly doesn't look lavender - more the grey/blue of the RAF unifrom. I tried to upload a photo of my page but the website didn't like my jpeg!!
Although I haven't seen any, I will keep an eye open for you whilst I'm searching for military papers for my son.
Here's one I did ages ago with my Westminster paper. My great uncle didn't live in London, he was a welshman, but it seemed apt as London was the place they were mainly defending. I'm not a sponsor, but take a look at a my homepage for stockists (most of which are sponsors on this site). I used green as it was part of a kit, but airforce blue would have been just as nice.
