Memory Album

[Wellington]

This was the project that fired me into the realms of crafting - when I look at it now it's not a huge amount more than a slightly decorated photo album, but the beginnings of scrapbooking where certainly there LOL.

I may get the photos printed off for a full on scrapbook sometime (maybe for my dad) particularly as there is now soooooooo much egyptian themed stuff about. The tickets & stuff will stay in this album though, which is just 2 A4 display pocket files. I ordered papyrus especially for it & also used some pics from travel brochures & postcards I picked up in Liverpool's World Museum - there's also a magazine article about the new tomb which had been officially classed as KV63 a couple of months before we visited the Valley of the Kings.

Any hand drawn hieroglyphics you spot were researched & copied by me for authenticity - didn't know I was using vellum at the time mind, it was just some nice translucent paper from a scraps kit I got for the kids from Lakeland
