Pharaoh's Shopping List? Layout

When we went to the King Tut exhibit in 2018, we took a ton of pictures, so every once in a while, I go back to get a few more scrapped. For these ones featuring some of the jewelry found in his tomb, I wanted to do something different from my other Tut layouts, so I grabbed some washi tape in bright colors to make the striped piece on the side, and then pulled some matching cardstock to make the mosaic frame. The title and journaling was inspired by a challenge about shopping over at Park Hopping My Happy Place; it got me wondering how Tut selected his jewelry, so I wrote about that. The jewelry ephemera was a late addition, and I'm not sure I love it, but it's okay because it feels good to conquer another page!
