This layout was an extreme challenge for me! First, almost none of the elements used drop shadows - a very hard thing for me to do! Secondly, I don't think I've used so many brushes on one layout in my life! This layout was completely based off of Basic Grey's
Letters to the World paper from their Scarlet Letter line. I used several brushes and shapes to cut out my papers, then layered them together. I used Michelle Coleman's texture brushes to give it that aged look. Hard work, but so worth it (to me, anyway)!
