Fun photos, and I love the string idea! I definitely agree with a darker mat - I don't think the LO is too symmetrical at all, in fact the symmetrical arrangement is great, but I didn't actually notice it until I read you notes! I think making the mats more contrasted would show off the photo arrangement better - I really do think it's very cool.
Oo...the pix are gorgeous and the string is a cool idea.
I agree with the rest, maybe matting with a darker cardstock will create a contrast. Also maybe add a bit more embellies to bring the photos together.
Oh I love the string, what a great idea!! Maybe if you matted the pics with cardstock, a darker cs that coordinates with the BG line? I think that might make a world of difference. I feel like I'm going on this trip with you and I love it!!!!
Sounds like fun! The LO just looks a little busy. Maybe try matting with a darker color so the mats don't blend in with the patterned paper. The string is a different element...I like it. Have you thought of numbering the circles on each photo? Loving this trip!
With this layout, I was trying to display pictures showing how mochi was made during a Japanese festival we went to. I labeled the mats with what was happening (pounding, lifting, flattening, presenting) and used some string to show the order.
But somehow it just doesn't work. Maybe it's too symmetrical? I don't know, I just know that it doesn't feel interesting, even to me!
