Welcome back to the exploration of Ford's Theater during my 2021 NPTC convention trip. You probably know that Booth jumped from the box to the stage, breaking his leg in the process, and still managed to make his escape out the back of the building. He went to a physician named Dr. Mudd. Dr. Mudd treated Booth's broken leg and, in the process, cut off Booth's boot. The boot and the surgical kit are on display in the museum (and as a nurse, one of the more interesting displays in my opinion). And, no, this is NOT from where the phrase "your name is mud" is derived. That phrase had been around for more than 40 years before this event.
This layout is based on one of the CM Advisor project recipes. At the end of 2023, they released an Advisor-only paper pack and this recipe to accompany it. It's not QUITE a 1-2-3 like Noreen Smith usually makes, but it is close. You can see from the cutting guide that you trim four 1" strips from a piece of double-sided paper, then turn the paper 90 degrees and cut at 6". That creates the borders at the top and bottom, and 2 larger pieces for the sides. You place four 4x6 photos in the center to cover the cardstock and make it appear as though the large blocks extend all the way across the page. I only had 3 horizontal photos, so I added a journal mat in the exact same colors as the paper. I also added 2 sets of border stickers to dress up the 1" strips. The round stickers are to simulate gunshots. The title pieces aren't from the same collection, but I didn't mind adding blue and green here because I really wanted those titles for my story.
