Another page for my London 1994 project. Pictures I don't have I fill up with stock photos. I realized I can live with that even though they were not taken by me.

This is fabulous Rikki.. I am getting so excited seeing your pages and feeling like a native even though I am not, as I know exactly where you are!! I love revisiting with your photo.. fabulous!! I like the fact you are scrapping the 1994 London trip!
Re your using stock photos I hear ya on a few things and places I did that too like St. Paul's Cathedral and both the Tower of London Castle & The Edinburgh Castle as both places you couldn't take photos of the crown jewels so I used photos from on line!
@cfile Before I always thought I was cheating when I used other photos, but now I think it is a good way to complement your pages. After all, even if we haven#t taken the photo we were there and did see it, right?
@Rikki exactly. There are some places you cannot take photos in, but there are photos on line so I used those for my book.. very few or you took a picture and it came out cruddy. LOL Enjoy making your pages and reminiscing!
This is so cool! I keep looking at it and seeing more great details, from the distressing of that main photo and the worn edges, and the lovely use of colour.
