You do not need to print/use the actual ad.  Just draw some inspiration from it. 

These are awesome!!

oh wow what a neat challenge- 1989
       
Drew inspiration from the colors, surf board, white font and beach vibes

Well I was born in the 1960s and my Dad worked for Bell Labs which was the same parent company as Western Electric so I think I've got this but it's going to take little time to find some old photos.

awesome!

Kool-aid for sure----- are drink of choice growing up!

Ok...this just might be a LOT of fun!! LOVE this!

Thanks!!!  I know just what I'm going to use!
 

This is so fun!!! I love seeing the old ads.

This sounds great! My decade ad is Kool-aid. Growing up we did drink a lot of it!


Love these colors! Great for a Fall/Thanksgiving layout.

That Bacardi Rum ad is interesting. The tropical vibe is obvious, but the red and green striped chair is screaming Christmas papers! Not sure which way I will go.

To remind myself of what I'm doing

I've got to Freshen Up!
