SHCG: Very cool LO idea. I like how you included your dd's writing of the poem. It seems like there should be something in between the photo and writing (maybe doodling like the others have suggested?) - they seem a little disjointed.
SHCG - OMG great how that poem is handwritten SO expressively & on spiral-notebook paper like that; it works so well w/ that photo. Great pp & colors, I also like the yellow lined paper in the background. I second Brenda's suggestion of adding more doodling to bring a little more focus to the photo (as the spiral-paper, while awesome, gets a lot of emphasis because it's stark white). What a cool & fun page!!
SHCG: I remember this photo. Love your use of school themed pps, and complementary colors, blue and orange, in the mats contrasting textures. Fab idea to have your dd handwrite the Shel Silverstein poem for this lo. A wonderful personal touch. I also like the dark outline around the letters in your title, and how each letter looks a miniature torn or crumpled piece of paper. Also glad to see the labeling in the bottom corner. My only suggestion is to scoot her photo up a bit so that the negative space above her is not so gaping. Otherwise, I'd ask her to add doodles there that direct the focus toward the photo. This page's charm lies in its adolescent appeal.
A quick LO of my dd Ashlynn doing her homework. I had her write out the Shel Silverstein Poem, it is Homework oh homework, I hate you, you stink! I wish I could wash you away in the sink. If only a bomb would explode you to bits, Homework oh homework, you give me fits! I'd rather take baths with a man eating shark, or wrestle a lion alone in the dark, eat spinach and liver, and pet ten porcupines, then tackle the homework my teacher assigns. Home work, oh home work you're last on my list, I can't even see why you even exist. If you'd just disappear it would tickle me pink. Homework, oh homework, I hate you, you stink!!! Shel Silverstein
