I like them both - really depends on your style but then again trying a new style is always inspiring. I would never have thought of inking the metal but I really like it. I really do like the right layout better if I have to choose.

I like the new version. I'm not a big fan of the 'white space' technique, so I think adding the name and the ribbon completed the LO more. The inked metal looks great. I have yet to poke around at inking. I'm too afraid of messing things up. LOL

I like the LO on the Left- its cleaner and not over-done. But, that's my opinion- i'm a simple scrapper anyway.

I like the inking on the metal. I think it helps bring out the blue in the page and brings some balance to the page.

I think it's great both ways, although I do prefer the after, but it's really cute both ways!

I defintely like the addition of Lucy but not sure about the inking on the metal??? Overall though I'd say I do like the after better.

I like Mother Goose's suggestion of the big monogram L and then ulu after that to fill up the space. If you don't want to put a title in, is there any way you can move the bottom strip up a bit? I also agree with Sherrise about messing it up a bit! Some skeleton leaves and matching ribbons and fibre, would add the third dimension to the layout. It is a gorgeous photo, and it should be the focus, but Lulu seems to be having so much fun playing with the leaves and things, and I think you should too!

I looked at alot of your gallery, and my opinion is that you are very linear, and everything's lined up so well... you should let yourself get a little messy! Ink something, paint something, tear something.. use some curves, ribbon, fiber. Maybe then you'll feel out of the 'rut' you say you're in. Also.. do you ever scrap photos that are not 'studio' photos? I think if you would start working with more candid photos of all different sizes you would be able to mix it up and relax more. Have fun with it, and just let yourself go a little crazy. You may be surprised at the results!! You definitely have an eye for color..let that guide you! Hope this helps, feel free to pm me anytime for a chat! :)

I think it's a good start. I would fill up the space more and add some ribbon to the pics or mats.

I LOVE this layout. The colors are really nice and just pop. I love the simplicity and elegance of this.

The picture is ADORABLE and I love the way you accented with the two kinds of leaf paper. Very cute! However, I think it's definitely begging for a title in the empty space! I think the idea of using "Lulu" as the title is great or "Laughter" or something. Not sure about the metal square...I guess it depends on how you do the title. If you used other metal pieces to do the title, it would match better.

I like it how it is!!!

I think the idea about trying the blue paint and then wiping it off would be a great element to try on the metal piece! Love the colors you used- this LO is SO cute!!

August 10, 2006

I think it's great the way it is also, but like the idea Kay presented. So it's totally up to you.

August 10, 2006

I say leave it! I love it the way it is! Great lo and beautiful child!

August 09, 2006

I think it is great, but would agree that a title in the space in the middle would be perfect!!

How about a large "L" Monogram chipboard and small "ulu" beside it.

I like your layout, but since you asked.... I am also a person that fills up the space. So, I would probably take a strip of the blue stripe paper and lay it diagonally from under the photo part to the area of the metal label. Sort of connect the two parts of the layout, if you can see what I mean. As far as the metal plaque goes, I like it, but it does kind of stand out on the page. One of the things I read about good design is that you need to have repetition of all the elements on the page. So if you could somehow use something metal and decorative someplace else on the page,(brads or other embellishments) I think it would tie it together.

oooo I love that! I have some fall colored leaves that would go really well in the center. I am a person that fills up my space though, it's all depending on what your style is!

August 09, 2006

Very Cute!! I love how you used the colors from the picture great job!!

August 09, 2006

I don't think the "empty" space is empty since you are using pp. As far as painting the metal thingy (LOL) maybe I would paint it light blue to go with the stiped paper and then wipe it off-it will high light the words and border nicely but I think it looks nice the way it is. Cute baby BTW and very nice LO.
