The tag background is made with a technique I learned from Sarah Whitmire, using coffee, cinnamon, metal bits and strings to create an aged look with the shadows of the pieces laid upon them. I love this method and I make lots of tags at once when I brew up a batch of the mix.
Floral cotton tape, gold skeleton leaves, stamped tag, old lace, and a vintage cabinet card enhanced with pan pastels.

really lovely pages Teri.
What fun! I love the cards - those would be great to use with the scrapbooks I'm doing for my MIL.
Lovely pages and such great imagination!!
Love the whole idea of this book Teri.
Your pages look great using those cabinet cards and love the effect with the cards on the tags.

Beautiful! I enjoy looking at your stuff. It's so very different than mine.
I'm always so impressed with the detail and layers and textures on these pages! What a fun idea to have journal pages from imaginary ancestors!
Oh Teri I love this. I have a huge collection of Cabinet Cards. Forgotten ones. I make up stories for them all the time. They always seem to need a little thought. I really dislike how they are gone and forgotten. You have given them new lives new memories. How exciting!
I love the layers in these pages. You have given it all a lot of love.
really love these pages Teri
