Bold stripes in autumnal colours
certainly caught our eye
in Aimee’s
striking layout. And what a lovely study
in design! The stripes actually serve as
white space and draw you into the meat
of the layout. The horizontal patterned
paper strips balance the strong vertical
stripes in the background and bring
your eye right into the intersection
where the photo is placed. The stitched
leaves pretty much seal the deal on a
wonderful design!

Lorimar’s Thanksgiving Day layout
celebrates her gratitude for family.
It seems this time of year is filled with
lots of reasons to get together with
our loved ones which often results
in family photos! We love Lorimar’s
reflective handwritten journaling and
the artsy details she added to frame
one perfect and one not-so-perfect
snapshot of her family from that day.
