This is wonderful!!! I love the whole experience of a child learning to write their name! It's so cool that you have the pictures to commemorate this!!

Hey Dawn - your handwriting is really nice! I wouldn't redo it. This is really pretty and simple (or should I say 'handsome' since it's your little guy?!).

February 25, 2006

Great design! LOVE it!!

February 25, 2006

Super cute...love the BG and the primas!

February 24, 2006

Wouldn't change a thing it is gorgeous, it is wonderfully balanced and your handwriting looks great, wish mine looked like that!!! :)

February 24, 2006

This is lovely Dawn. He looks so proud! I love the color and the primas were such a great addition, this is simply fabulous Dawn fabulous!!!!!

February 23, 2006

I think this is awesome too, the only thing I can think of is what Cindy said, maybe put his name somewhere that you can read it better. I really like the handwritten title myself. And I love the simplicity of the design. I think it's a great lo!!!

February 23, 2006

So cute! I love the design!

February 23, 2006

simply WONDERFUL!!! i think the handwritten title is the perfect touch!

February 23, 2006

Hey! I'm so jealous. I wish I had a photo this great. What a wonderful memory. I to love how you played on the black stripes from his shirt. I would try adding another black stripe above the top one but smaller, 1/3 the width of the one you already have on there. I love the handwriting title. However, I would center it horizontally and vertically. Or have your son write his name under your title. Great Job. Melisa

February 22, 2006

Oh Dawn, the first thing I thought was FANTASTIC DESIGN! I love the way you combined those papers with red CS! I love the stripes to "hold" everything together! His handwritten name in the blue-gray block sounds great, but I wouldn't change anything else. Another fantastic layout! I LOVE your style, girl!!

February 22, 2006

I like the simplicity of it. It works for the LO. Having your ds write his name and adding it to the LO is perfect

February 22, 2006

I love this LO. It is simple. I really do like the hand written title - just suits the LO topic! Cute pictures!

February 21, 2006

I love the simplicity of this..I agree too that maybe some journaling hiding somewhere would be great because this is such a milestone for him...The colors are awesome together and the theme of this is great (nice handwriting BTW!LOL I'm jealous, my hw stinks!!) Your son is going to love looking back at all the special moments his mom captured for him!! Well Done!

February 21, 2006

This is terrific!!! Love the color combo and the simplicity of the design. I too like the idea of having your ds write his name and putting it on one of the rectnagles between the pics with the date on the other. LOVE the handwritten title, it's perfect for this lo; great work :)

February 21, 2006

Great Simplistic Scale and style. Love the rich Colors. I'm with the other gals (can't see pic very well on scan) but you could have him write his name on one of the center recs or under your title. But I like it as is.

February 21, 2006

I like the way you used the colors of his shirt to do the page! Wonderful idea ;) I think the handwritten title is great! I also like the idea of writing his name, perhaps on the grey block in the middle. The date should indeed be written here too (perhaps on the lower right corner of the strip, beneath the pic where he's holding his handwritten name). Awesome work! :d

February 21, 2006

I love it! The handwritten title looks great and works perfectly with the subject. I think the three flowers are enough embellishments. It looks finished, and wonderful!

February 21, 2006

This is really nice. I like it simple. (I think I've been bit by the simple bug. ;) ) Love the colors. The handwritten title is nice and very appropriate for the page. I like the idea of having him write his name. Maybe on the greyish colored block in the middle? I would also add the date since this is a pretty big deal. Nice work! What a treasure. :)

February 21, 2006

Such a great moment, and a great layout documenting it. I love the colors and the simplicity. The handwritten title is perfect for the subject. Much as I hate to think of you changing anything, in 20 years when you look at this page will you be sorry not to have some journaling telling the story? Maybe there's a place to hide some that wouldn't take away from the page balance?

February 21, 2006

Just saw Tonya's suggestion of having ds write his own name - I like that even better!

February 21, 2006

I love the simplicity Dawn. The pictures are beautiful and your paper choices are perfect. I wouldn't change the handwritten title - seems appropriate since the LO is about handwriting, kwim? The only other thing I can think of is maybe add his name somewhere since it's hard to make out in the picture (that might just be a scan issue, so ignore at will! :-D ) Maybe small rub-ons or stamped letters for his name on the blue block between the pictures. You could even do them vertically at one end of the block so they aren't so noticeable and wouldn't "fight" with your title for attention. Great LO!

February 21, 2006

Nothing wrong with "simple" when it looks this good!!! I think your writing the title perfectly reflects the subject of the pictures.

February 21, 2006

I like the handwritten title - but I am big on handwriting all my stuff. I can't think of any other embellishment I would use on the page, except maybe have your son write his name on a piece of cardstock, then you could add that to the page. Otherwise, I like the look of the lo - it completely suits the pics and subject matter. Also, the colors look great together.
