County Hall

Such a stylish building (compared with Boris Towers or whatever they call the new london administrative HQ) Love the muted colours for this LO Valerie - I can see you'll be kept busy for a long while scrapping your new-found stash!

Way to go Valerie! I love the personal touch with Ken's photo and an overview pic, and yes, sadly i don't think the London Eye would fit circa 1955! Thrilled to see you use Shabby Blanc, it suits the muted photo so beautifully, the square lines here reinforce the photos too - so fabulous!

Valerie, it's beautifully done! I love how you've taped your photo of Ken in the inset pic - looks perfect there with the perfect little embellie! Gorgeous layout!

Oh, I love the way you blended the BG and put the newsprint inside some letters of the title.

I too, love your blending. I like the texture you used on the BG photo along with the muted colors. Beautifully done!

very classical! enjoyed studying your LO!

I would have sworn the photo you used was contemporary - you did a fabulous job aging it! This is stunning, Valerie! You're going to have an amazing album! Way to go!

Amazing photo. I like the cluster under neath. The background newsprint is perfect. Your blending is beautiful. Great layout.

Wow, you have a lot going on here. The cutouts from the title to show the paper print below (which has been beautifully blended at the top), the clustering underneath the photo, the ribbon used as a divider and the merging of a photo off the internet to complete the story. So very well done!

Great page Valerie. I particularly like the background and the wonderful blending. I love the embellishment cluster too. Nicely done!

I love this layout! It would definitely catch my eye anywhere! Your background makes all of the elements pop!

That is just stunning Valerie..don't know how I missed it before..you go!
