Hmmm. I had to think a little for this one. (Takes the brain a while to boot up some days) I think I'd run a strip (1/2 to 3/4 of an inch) of patterned paper right across the two pages, centered between the bottom of the photos' mat and the top of your journaling. That way you still keep all that 'open' space, but the stark white gets broken up a little. I like the use of lots of photos again!
Neat 2-pager! ;) the ladies have already offered wonderful suggestions, it's just a matter of what *YOU* would want to consider. :) If you'd ask me, i'd love to see the small pic (on the left page) mounted on pp or cs (like the one you used for the pics) and toward the center and the journaling also written on the same cs and toward the center of the right page so when the 2 pages meet both elements (journaling and small pic) meet at the center of the 2-page spread and would make a square of rectangle at the center. kwim? ;) however, i really love that you used a lot of pics on this 2-page spread. :d
What a very special day for your baby and family. I'd like to see some pp or stamping done as the background. I'd "google" rainbow to see if there's any cute saying that may go along with this LO...something tells me there's a Kermit The Frog song that may be appropriate, but I can't think of the title...OH, The Rainbow Connection...now Andrew is connected With God?!!? What do you think? Run with that idea for a while and let us know what you think!
I really like the simplicity of this. I think that white space is good -- you can really focus on pictures and journalling. If I were to change anything I would pull the elements on the bottom left and right corners up and closer to the rest of the pictures. Or even centering those elements within the white space on their respect pages. Hope I am making sense here. I think the white space just needs to be a bit more evenly distributed. I really like how you let the photographs and journalling speak for themselves here without a lot of distraction. TFS!
Yep that's what I was thinking when I saw this. A bit of stamping would break this up a little. Love that the focus is going str8 to the pic's!! Great job!!
Great 2 page lo! Like how you were able to use so many photos. I agree that you might want to break up the white a bit; maybe with a rainbow ribbon (from the rainbow in the background of some of the pics) running across both pages. Love the metal date tags too; very cute :)
Great work again here! Like I said on another lo of yours, I really like how you pull all the focus to the pics and the journaling and you use embellishments, but you don't let your them "take over" your page. If it were my page I would take a stamp (something baptism related, or even something geometric like circles or squares or something) and turn the white background into my own patterned paper. I would use versamark or some really light (yellow or blue) ink...just to break up the white a little. It would give a totally different look though, so it really depends on what you want. Just an idea. :) Nice job with the scraplift!
Another simple scheme scraplift. (see how much inspiration I get from one magazine?) I really like how this came together. Papers are stampin up!, there is a little acrylic shell and the metal number tags are colorbok. blue brads are making memories, "holy" tag is Me and MY Big ideas.
