DH's grandma, who will turn 100 in March... isn't doing well and we don't expect her to make her birthday. I have loads of photos of Grandma with Jake that I want to scrap and put into a book... Jake is by far Grandma's favorite great grandson... and I want to have all the photos together...

What kits would you use? I'm thinking more vintage... ?
 
You could probably mix and match quite a few kits from Ju Kneipp's store. Actually ALL of her store. :D
I've done a few Great Grandma layouts with her kits and they look amazing.
 
Here are just some random suggestions (I'm taking a break from writing assignments) - sorry I haven't linked them. First person that came to mind was Nicole but there are others there too.

Great suggestions, Jennifer. Jake is lucky to have had her for so long! I had 2 of my great-grandmothers until I was about 13, and I remember them fondly. My kids also have 2 great-grandparents, but we live so far that they don't have the relationship with them that it sounds like Jake and his great grandmother do.

Honestly, I think one of the few things that isn't covered well in the shoppe is grandparents. There used to be a cute one that I don't see in the store anymore. Maybe a collab between Lliella and someone else? I never bought it because it the characters in the kit seemed too old to scrap my parents with, but they'd be perfect for scrapping great-grandparents. Maybe someone can chime in with that kit.

Melissa and Libby have In Pictures, which I've used for LOs with the grandparents.

awesome picks!!! Anyone can think of any more?

Jake has two great grandmas still a live (DH's other grandma is still alive, too)... and he is the apple of both their eyes. Grandma Kuchenbecker (the one not doing well), Jake is number one to her... even though she has four other great-grandkids... but apparently she forgets about them... :D But them, DH is her favorite grandchild... and she isn't shy about saying that.
 
Jake is a lucky boy!! it's such a blessing to be our age and still have our grandparents around to dote on our kiddos :) I know I love watching mine with my kids.

I love the suggestions so far here's a few more




 
I bought this one specifically for pics of my grandmother (who passed several years ago). It has a very old fashioned feel and her favorite color was lavender.
 
Nicole & Misty used to have a grandparents collab. Maybe they could be persuaded to hook you up? :p
