This is a layout inspired by a friend and fellow scrapper who has created some of the most beautiful heritage pages I have ever seen. She knows who she is. This is just one of the styles she's mastered but a new one for me and one I really hope to get better at so I gave it my best shot!
These are my 3rd great grandparents, the littlest one I believe to be my 2nd great grandmoter born in 1856.
Background was created using the following:
Paper 4 from Timeless Journey Kit by Manu blended with Paper 16 from Archives Kit by Lorie Davison @scrapbookgraphics
Paper 1 from Charms DAntan Add-On Kit by Annie Manning is sandwiched between the two papers above, available @oscraps.
