Is there anyway to enlarge the picture. Right now it doesn't seem like the focus of the layout. Also, the title is a little hard to read, I think I would carefully remove the top wavy paper and just put the title right on the background paper. (just a thought) I Like the swirls, maybe you could add something 'schoolish' like a school bus, or pencils or something. Maybe add a picture of her school!

I would keep it as is and maybe journal on the cardstock along the wavy lines using them as guidelines. That would give you a lot of space to journal. What you have so far looks good!

I think this is a great start! I love the pp here. My only thought at first is maybe mat the pic and the circle to break the pic from the pp. The wavy strips would be cool with the journaling hard written around the waves...depending on how much journaling. The patterns have a lot of texture and is really cool!

Don't start over- you've got a great start with this. I originally thought- how about a circle on the right with a rectangle in it for journaling. Then I read about journaling along the swirls- that would look cool. The swirl shapes are cool & draw your eye around the layout! Looks good!

Really love the swirlies and the color scheme!Maybe you could add hidden journaling and maybe some ribbons behind the pic and coming out of the pp(I am In LOVE with ribbon) or maybe even a couple of flowers! I def. don't think you should throw it out and sstart over! The pic is PRECIOUS and I am def. loving your swirly photo mat! Great job!!!

Love the swirls of pp. The only thing I'd suggest is maybe centering the picture and if you wanted to add journaling, I would write it around the swirls of pp. Great lo though.

I love the pp! You could also try journaling around the swirls, depending on how much you have to say. I've seen that a lot on layouts lately. I really like the contrast between the rectangular photo and the circle mat and the swirls.

Maybe you could add hidden journaling that pulls out from under the photo. I agree that the cut-outs are great and I love the patterns. The LO is really fun!

Oh I love the idea of this! The swirly shaped patterned paper adds such a nice look to the page. Perhaps lift the photo and put it in the center of the page for symmetry and balance. And you could widen and lengthen the green swirl behind it, and hand-write your journaling in there? Love the swirl shapes, I hope you don't take them out. They look great with the photo's matting! Nice work! :-)
