that's a lovely idea! The kiddos will so appreciate that. I always say I should do one for my hubby's childhood & one for mine and still haven't. Can't wait to see.

I get such a chuckle when I hear you young'ins say that heritage is 70's and 80's....It makes me feel so old. I thought heritage was 30's to 50's....LOL.

Heritage pages are so rewarding, it's always such fun to go diving into our past! If you look you will find tons of supplies, Katie's genealogy series is amazing! Have a ball!

Great decision!
Okay, I love pairing papers with eras! My undergrad was in fashion journalism so my go to for inspiration is the world of fashion and fabric. Here's a fun site: Retro Age Vintage Fabrics, vintage fabrics, vintage fabric, vintage fabric australia, retro age, vintage fabrics, remnants, fat quarters, fabric, fabrics 70's colors: avocado, brown, mustard gold, orange; if you want to go with a brighter color palette, you can borrow from the wild, psychedelics of the 60's! Here some suggestions: 70's palette and style Lynn Grieveson Percentage Wise Kit Anna Aspnes Say YES PageSet Fletcher PageSet Jesse Edwards Whoop de Doo Paper Pack Whoop de Doo Solid Paper Pack Golden Silence Paper Pack Golden Silence Solids Paper Pack Also check out Pattie Knox's Absolutely Acrylic: That 70s Stuff And one of my LONG TIME favorites for that laid back 70s surf look--Katie Pertiet's: Surf Shak Paper Pack Now for the 60s!! More bright and mod!! Anna Aspnes ArtsyLove PageSet Jesse Edwards I'm using this one for some Disney pages: In The Cube Paper Pack This one could be 50's as well: Losing Control Kit Zippity Kit

What a wonderful list, Marnie! I have always loved textiles and it was so much fun to use an authentic fabric from the era when I was designing a vintage house! Loved that web site!

Suggestion of neutrals by Anna--important! Even though I LOVE color and prints, I usually choose one neutral for my background paper--for consistency throughout the project and for some 'white space'!
