Great distressing and those papers are so yummy!!! It really has a nice design and cute file folder. I agree with the tips from above. Title needs something to bring it out, bottom needs more weight...But great job and use of techniques!! Thanks for sharing.
Sky, I love this page. Everyone's suggestions sound great -- it will definitely spread the "weight" around the page. One thing... If you have extra scraps or a coordinating colored tag, you can have your (absolutely adorable!) son write his name on it for memory purposes and to add a bit more between the bottom row of tags and the patterned paper mats. If it's small enough and overlaps enough, it will reinforce the great flow you've got going here already. It's a beautiful page that can stand on its own as is and so wonderful that you're scrapbooking those school portraits (I've got 3-year-old ones I have yet to work on!!).
Great to see a lo from you! Love the colors and awesome pps youu sed. I agree that the title would stand out more with a solde green matting, and tha the ribbon would would look awesome with the pp behind it. Love the way you have the circle tags dangling with safety pins; nice work :)
I love what you have here but I so trying to think of a suggestion for the bottom. It looks unfinished or something!! I like Jasmine's idea abt using some of the totally HOT pp to bring attention to that area!! The design and paper combo is so gorgeous with that super cute pic of your ds!! tfs!!
I love the way the mat on your photo makes the photo just pop off of the page. Your son may be the only kid I've ever seen who took a good school photo! I love the way the ribbon on your folder coordinates with the ribbon at the bottom. I'm sure the tags are easier to read in person -- photos of layouts never do them justice. Very cute!
I love your color scheme. I think the title-First Grade needs a little something to set it apart from the background. Maybe double matting it or inking the edges in black ink. I agree with the others' suggestions about matting the ribbon to give a little something extra. Your ds is so cute!!
I love how you did the title in different papers. For me, the tags are a little hard to read - could use more punch! The file folder is great! Don't you just love using those?
Very nice LO Sky! Jasmine has a great idea, I agree that it would help it pop. Only other thing I would do is mat a piece of the sage green cardstock behind "First Grade"...I love those Chatterbox papers and your son is a little cutie pie!!!!
I love your pp, the file folder and the title! Something seems to be lacking in the bottom tho'? Ok, I have a suggestion. How about placing a strip of pp underneath the ribbon? I think it needs to pop out more. Otherwise, this is great! :)
