SHCG: Jesse, I like your title for a Christmas gathering page. I also like the journaling circle and the torn white cs. As in the other lo, I'd add some glitter to the poinsettia. I'd suggest adding the year only if this is not already the facing page to your other Christmas lo. I have a few other suggestions: Close up some of that green pp space by moving the photos to the left. I feel the buttons call for rounding the corners of the pp, the top corners of the white, and the photo mats. I think the baby photo overlaps a little too much, and would scoot it down. I'm also thinking the title needs to be rearranged a tad so that it runs down and around the bottom right corner of the baby photo. I think it's the second t that seems a little out of place to me. I'd also move that one big green button to the pair next to the journaling. Then, with the remaining buttons and move them to fit around the top and bottom left corners of the green pp. Finally, silver inked edges to polish it off. Again, I like the coordinating papers and title font and the button groups. These repeated elements tie the two pages together like a pretty Christmas package.

SHCG - Very fun LO, Jesse! AND I'll let ya slide on the journaling because you DO have the names listed above & the pics seems to speak for themselves (you'd get an earful from me if ya didn't have those names, LOL). Again, really like the pp choices, paper layering, photo matting & buttons. I like how the photos are placed kind of jaggedly w/ the title to the side but I'm wondering how it would look w/ the narrowest point on top of the photo grouping, gradually going to the widest pics on the bottom (like a Christmas tree but w/ a straighter left edge, if that makes sense)... I don't know, things just usually seem more balanced/grounded to me when the widest points are on the bottom. Still, this works as is. Awesome holiday page! Yes even without the journaling ;)

shcg: I am loving your use of buttons as a border in these two pages. The only journaling I would suggest adding is maybe where you're at -- such as just adding a line about it being at your DBF's dad's, especially if you have a lot of LOs from a lot of different places in this one album. I agree that the polkadot letters are a bit distracting -- I'd love to see them matted....OR....what about tracing around them to give the look of a mat/border? Another beautiful page!

SHCG: Looks like fun. The polka dot letters for the title are a bit distracting from the photos, however, they do go along with the "fun" of the page... I still might consider trying a solid color instead.
