The Medieval Palace Layout

I am still working on photos from the Tower of London, but got stuck on this layout for a couple of weeks. It was supposed to be a scraplift, but I didn't take into account that I had a very limited selection of papers and no embellishments to use in certain spots, so I kept trying to figure out what to use. I finally decided to simplify and omit the highly embellished tags on the original layout, so it's must simpler than I originally planned. I'm glad to get it into the album so I can move on, so it's all good!

The medieval palace at the Tower of London is made up of three towers, so I put photos of St. Thomas Tower on the left page of the layout, and photos of Wakefield Tower and Lanthorn Tower on the right page. In between is a photo storage page with journaling and more photos, some of which I showed off below.
