The Age of Carriages by Esther



The Winmill Carriage Collection in Leesburg, Virginia, presented opportunity for the right photos for these page kit papers. The base is the green print that gave a subtle design. The photos are large to show their importance to the layout. Stickers Echo Park were used to accent along with a key and shape with copper glaze from heat setting ink. Several applications of Copper pigment ink and powder provided a metallic finish. A tag on a clear base was used for stickers with a little glitz. Green brads (that's what I had at midnight), colored black with StazOn, were used to attach with the Crop-A-Dile. A great way to recolor brads! This was a handy way to attach the transparent label "Carriages".

Stickers for the photo corners and at the bottom tie the two pages together visually. Journaling was taken from the signs at the museum and computer generated blocks on ivory paper. Two contrasting ribbons were layered across the top of the two pages with red line.

Thanks Erica for choosing a great combo for this kit.
