BEAUTIFUL!

love it! I like the pp you used and the pic.

I like the burnt look of the pictures, and how you added the ribbon. That is a very cool picture. My suggestion would be maybe a different type of journaling, maybe on cardstock and distress the edges like the photo mat.

this LO has been in my mind all day - there's just something about the picture that seems too modern/casual for the rest of the fussy/feminine/almost victorian elements - it is all gorgeous, it just doesn't seem like the LO fits the actual photo used. I think you might consider substituting a different photo with closeups of the baby just with parental hands or something so you get the idea of the caring parents, but miss dad's hat (which may not seem like a big deal now, but is going to really stand out when guys no longer dress like Fred Durst). Alternatively, if you love the photo (and it IS really cool), maybe take the colors/patterns in a more neutral cool-color palette and simplify to make the whole thing more modern/clean/casual.

Melissa,you did a great job on the challenge!I like the photo and the pp! I also like the black ribbon! I think you can add some baby charms on the ribbon. I like it a lot ! Great LO!

HI Melissa. That photo looks very cool, I like the effects you used, really zooms in on the happy couple with the baby! I like the colors and pp used, it's very elegant, and this is like a birth announcement, which is elegant in itself. I also like the black ribbons and how they crisscross, very pleasing visually. I do think it's missing the baby's name and maybe the birth date? I feel like those are things looking back at the layout, someone would like to see. I think black photo corners {to match the ribbon} would add some visual interest. They can be added to two corners {opposite side and one top, one bottom} if not all four! Overall, beautiful layout.

The pp is gorgeous and great job on the photo effect. I also have wanted to do that but am to scared. I would change the journaling a little bit, but have no other suggestions. Nice job!!

I also like the PP Melissa, and I like the distressed techniques you've used, I'm just not sure that they mesh well with the subject/theme of the LO. I may have gone with brighter "happier" colors and more contemporary PP for the occasion. Not sure about the vellum either. Since you've chosen the heavier colors/techniques I would stick along those lines. The vellum, in this case, kinda sticks out from the rest of the page, instead of blending and softening, which is what I assume you intended. I can see a journaling block in it's place and think that may work better for you here. I've used this burned technique before and I like it a lot. I know that you probably are finished and can't change anything, just some thoughts. Hope you don't mind.

The papers here are beautiful and I really like the "burned" edge effects. How about something vertically under those vellum journaling strips? I could see something under them, making them more of a whole piece - a mat under/containing them or maybe a pretty ribbon beneath them...? Did you do that photo effect yourself? I have yet to attempt that sort of thing.
