Monuments Layout

I did a little bit of organizing in my scrapbook room this week, with a pleasant surprise resulting: I found the last set of photos from the British Museum that I had misplaced, so here is a layout of the Nereid Monument, an impressive Greek tomb. There are also two photos of the Parthenon Frieze, which is why I felt justified in titling my layout Monuments (plural). Journaling will be in a facing pocket page, and I am working on another layout with the rest of the Parthenon sculptures. For the background, I started with white cardstock which I brayered with the blue ink, then  stamped the corners and added some distress spritz. Not usually a mixed media gal, but I like how this came out!
