Here are the notes supplied with this layout: "This citizenship page was made on the vintage USA map (discontinued). I used the extra elements - flag stripes and USA Kid to hide elements on the page that didn't quite blend in with the look I wanted. I printed my journaling on vellum and chalked the edge to get the vintage feel. To create the citizenship certificate, I scanned elements from his certificate to make the "mocked up" certificate. The real certificate is illegal to copy, so I created this one by scanning selected elements. The vellum embellishment in the lower right hand corner says, "Travel with me from one side of the world to the next." " |
