Priceless Keepsakes by Melenia Agapides

I was given this old photo by my husband. It must be at least 60 years old and it is a photo of the children of the orphanage my father-in-law was staying at after the WW2 and the Civil War that followed. So it is really precious for him. The perfect collection for this type of layout is undoubtedly the “Cold Country”. And this is what I used, not trying something new, but just layering and adding texture in the form of flakes, modelling paste, gesso and some embellishments.
