I created the following layout as an assignment for Scrapbooks, Etc. awhile back (for the February 2010 issue). You may not recognize it because it didn't make it into the magazine. It happens. Although I liked certain aspects of the original design, I had been asked to change a few things, I was required to use a few things (the Prima flowers and canvas) and the overall effect just wasn't great, ya know? You win some, you lose some. This is the way publication goes. :)
So, when I got the layout back a few weeks ago I decided to scrap the old design since it wasn't something I loved and I carefully removed my photos from the layout to use on a new layout, seen HERE:
And I love this one. Was there anything really wrong with the first layout: no. But when it comes to putting layouts into my family photo albums I want to love the finished design. And this fits the bill.
This layout is super simple. Pink Paislee patterned papers, vellum and a row of punch hearts with a few embellishments.
