This fortress was first started in 1690 and worked on through out the next 100 years. It was a British fort with the work done by slaves. St Kitts has a lot of slave trade history. I wish we had more time to look through the fort and learn more about the history.
I used two challenges on this layout: one sketch challenge and one inspiration challenge.
The sketch challenge is a double layout from Stick it Down.
The inspiration challenge is from Pixels and Paper Challenge Blog. The challenge was to use a monochromatic color scheme on your layout. I used brown as the color.
Beautiful layout! Love the colors and your take on the sketch. Thanks for playing along with us at Stick it Down.
