Detail of page one There is more Journaling inside the File Clip-art: Watch Open Clipart.org Computer Font: Courier New
Detail of page two with Collage tag Emphera label from Sassyarts Clip-art: Watch Open Clipart.org Matt Plaid Modge Podge and brown shoe polish.
Notes: The shoe polish darkened the clip-art and brought out the edges. I don’t know if I like the brush marks, which I didn’t see before. What do you think? In future I will use a sponge brush. I used Lab Hydrion pH Test paper to test the Kiwi Shoe- polish and Modge Podge and they weren’t Acidic.
Planning on my magnetic board.

Thank you 😉
It is one of my layouts that I am most satisfied with, as he was the best grandfather one could wish for.
