Gorgeous. Love the papers and colors. Can't wait to see the finished product.

You may have changed this already by the time this comment shows up! I like the idea of Jardin or the Tagalog word for garden. I think I agree with Lelynne about those gorgeous primas maybe disguising the architectural nature of the photo they are on, but I don't know where I'd move them too - maybe the lower corners of the upper photo and the upper corners of the lower photo, if you see what I mean.... The colors are already bloomin' mahvellous :)

Jasmine. Wow, I love that pp. Is the paisley skateshoppe too???? I don't remember ever seeing it. The colors are awesome and I love how you made one of the photo's a pocket for your emphera. I love TT, but I'm not sure what part of your page is by them ????? The LO is great so far, I'm sorry I just can't think of anything else right now. I guess it will depend on the size of the title, but you may want to slide photo pocket/emphera down and utilize left upper corner for journaling??? Maybe flowers somewhere on the right side too ??? I like how your not afraid to scrunch the photo's over to the right side. Maybe some type of detail that gives the appearance that they are attached from the right side of the page. Kinda a hinge look but use a retagular strip of paper (like the piece on the left side). Make the retangle long enough to fold in half so that you have the top piece of it on the top of your lo and the other 1/2 folded under. Ink the edges of the retangle and maybe small stitch lines around the edges. Then you could use what ever you like as the "bolt". eyelet or flower ??? Or another idea would be to attach 2 prima's in the top right corner of each of those photo's. I just needs something coming off of that right side. KWIM?? Hope this helps. I can't wait to see how it turns out. Melisa

ok, i know i'm not part of the CG any longer but i hope you don't mind *my* input. teehee i LOVE the BG here; they go perfectly with the photos! :) the flowers are great addition too, although they seem to take away from the great arhitectural snapshot; so *i* think they'd look better in another area on the page (perhaps scattered along the top and bottom left of the page where the pamphlet is?). as for the pics, i suggest matting them just to define them (they seem to blend with the backdrop)--- but that's just *me*. hahaha this looks gorgeous though! :) wonderful pics and interesting lo! ;) and BTW, i like Tara's idea for the title--- Nature's Pallete! ;)

This is already so beautiful! SInce your title will be in the lower right corner, I think the photo placement is fine; though I do like the idea of a very thin mat around the pics. Like the idea of Nature's Pallette too. Maybe you could find some great quote about nature or flowers in the our library if you don't find the defintion you're looking for. Love the distressing, the pps, and the beautiful lace; can't wait to see the final product :)

Ohhh I like Nature's Palette! This garden is beautiful! I too love the little details you've put on this one..I do agree that maybe the photos need only a very thin mat (nothing that will take away from the picture) This is gonna be an awesome garden LO..I know one of the mags is calling for garden LOs...hmmmm

Jasmine, I'm totally enjoying your garden pages!! I love the bold, bright pattern papers, multi-pics, primas, and ephemera you're using -- I bet the overall album has an energetic, lush consistent feel to it. I like the contrast of hydrangeas and forget-me-nots, funky paisely and lime green, with the cactii. The colors really let you all stand out without taking away from the garden. I like titles with other languages... According to Babelfish, "In The Garden" translates to "Dans Le Jardin" in French. Or perhaps words about gardens in Tagalog? Overall it's a genius page and I'd LOVE to have an album like this of my own! Thank you for sharing!!

Maybe...Natures Palette...luv those papers with your pics... Good eye MOMofmeg..I didn't even notice the lace..silly scans! very cute!

Is this local fauna for you? How about something tying into the kinds of plants you're posing in front of... something like "A romp among the catcti" although that's pretty lame, maybe it will spark something. I think your photo placement will look fine once you have your title in. I do think maybe matting the photos would create a little more definition between them and your paper -- my eye finds the transition as is a little confusing (though maybe it's glare from the photo). I really love your papers, the lace and the stitching.

Can't think of any names, sorry. Love the pp choices and primas. The only suggestion I have would be to move the pamphlet up a little and the pict on the left down a little. I love what you've done so far!!
