Travel Anywhere

This layout is a scraplift from a layout made by the talented Claire Hawkins. The old black and white photos of Alan and his brother and sister on a day trip to London's Heathrow Airport. 

I used two sheets of the same paper, as I needed both sides. the paper is from the 49 and Market's Vintage Artistry Everywhere - Ticket Montage. The chipboard pieces are also from the same collection - Geo Frame Set.


I cut the world map from the ticket side of the paper using a Peartree Cutfile. and setting the pieces aside, I used the waste as a stencil and inked the map with Distress Oxide Ink. Then I stuck the cut outs over the top, slightly off set to create a shadow.

The Acrylic title is from Peartree Cutfiles, and the letter stickers are from Doodlebug Designs.
