I loved making the front cover of my journal so much I made the back to match! I used a Tim stencil to imitate Victorian wallpaper which I thought matched the picture. She looks a lost soul, I was attracted to this Found Relative. Maybe she is a sibling of one of the cowboys?
I followed the instructions for Challenge 19 on
Linda Ledbetter’s blog. Sorry I can’t give you details you NEED Tim’s b
ook Compendium of Curiosities 3 for yourself. The challenge is to use Frayed Fabric technique. The sponsor is Inspiration Emporium.
I am also entering A Vintage Journey Challenge to use Portraits. I love the Found Relatives pictures and have finally found how to use them!
I would like to enter the challenge at The Mirror Crack’d challenge for stencils.
I am pleased how the covers of the journal turned out, now the scary part of filling the pages! Hopefully I will have lots of inspiration!
Please leave me a comment I really appreciate your thoughts

Jan…this is beautiful. I totally live your album covers using Tim’s stencil. It really DOES look like old wallpaper. Your frayed layers of fabrics are perfect on the cover. Lovely colors and so sweet with that sweet found relatives little girl. Beautiful job! Thsnkms for joining us at CC3C!

Jan, I love this with all the beautiful layers! I just want to pick it up and look at it from every angle! I got started a little late with the Frayed Fabric challenge, so didn’t link up. Now my Fabric is on my next link to AVJ. Thank you for sharing this beauty!

Way to go, Jan! I see you were chosen as a Pinworthy over at A Vintage Journey, and I wanted to come congratulate you again!
