thank you. i am looking at this layout from my grandmothers computer and i feel a need to be clear that this layout is NOT neon at all... i am truly hoping that this is not what you are seeing on your own computers...

and yes, 70. granted, i am making 3 identical books and i count all layouts, identical or not...

wow! thank you! really, its not that difficult a layout. that pinkish reddish paper has a photo spot printed on it with blue edging, etc. i took that paper and cut to 11.5x11.5 and matted on another sheet of greenish patterned paper, folding down the top right corner to show both sides of the paper.

then i took a sheet of prima's stitched flowered paper and trimmed out the stitched flowers and put them on the layout and topped with a matted 4x6 photo that fit right into the frame that was printed on the paper.

from there, i topped with some prima say it in crystals.

i swiped the layout with some green pebbles inc acryllic paint and used that green spot as a journaling spot and to make the title stick out. the title is american crafts thickers.

hows that for simple?

Meant to comment earlier, but was buried under paper...Can't even imagine having as many layouts in the works as you do (and I would count the dupicates too)! Just wanted to say this is really very pretty, and wish I could make such nice pages with only a picture or two on them (I always overcrowd my pages, going to try to work on that though)

believe it or not, i really dont tend to like layouts with only 1 photo on them. ithink that they are a huge waste of space and i also like ot overcrowd my pages.... but sometimes, when the journaling is the most important part of the layout, i think it does actually work better to only use one or 2 photos to get the point across.

this layout wasnt anything about the actual photo... just the sentiments. i think thats why it works...
