Ok then....

Hmmmm Im having a good look at it ok

[Kay]

ok, the quote down the bottem I think needs to be put up in the center a bit more as u have the huge space and it looks weird with the space..
Also with both the quotes... the writing on the vellum being so dark and then the back ground being dark too you cant see it too well.. mabey you could matt the quotes with white or something!

Um thats it hehe...

[Leanne]

I think its looks ok a few things I would have done

Filled up that empty space ( the section under the top pic)

Also maybe the writing up the top maybe u print it on coloured paper and give it a fancy border.

[sexymummie]

thanks girls, im gona re do that page once i get my other 4 challenges & swaps finished, but as those quotes were stickers, i dont think i could remove them :( not sure wot i would put in the empty space, hope to get more opinions 2morro. thanks kay & lea :)

[Kay]

OMG.. there is a scrap swap and I didnt join in :(

[sexymummie]

thanks jen, those are really excellant tips......dont panic kay, theres no scrap swap here, its on another forum i belong to. im a nervous wreck atm, as i think ive over booked my scrapping plate......9lol 9lol
ive got to do:
5 ATC's sent out soon
5 scrap swap homemade bits
3 challenges * for prizes so scared*
1 box circle to be sent on the 20th:O
4 things to price at the post office & probably send within the wk
not to forget cameron's bday on the 25th, by the way, kay ....cameron sends elijah a hi 5, for having his bday close to his 9lol...
its not the beach btw, lol its a harbour where the ships come in;) the x's grandparents live on a massive hill so thats why its so far up

[emily_callie]

i think it looks cool...either way i dont know much about scrap booking but i couldnt of done a better job if i tried...lol

[mumof5]

i agree with everyone with the matt& white under quote down bottom,

maybe crop photos(but not to much)

maybe add a another colour.

but scraping is your own work,its like the advice we get while we are pregnant listen to all the advice and work out what is best for you.

[Leanne]

OMG.. there is a scrap swap and I didnt join in :(

I think its on a different site.

[sexymummie]

any layout ideas on how to position the 3 pics / as ive got that many recent 3 pics in a series of photos & no idea how to position them right.....
but who ever listens to any advice when preg LOL , i kno it took me ages to learn ppl told me things cos they cared xoxoxoxo.....yes your right lea , totally different site...

[Leanne]

Heres an example for 3 pics

[sexymummie]

thanks for that sketch lea, i shall add it to my ever growing ring binder of zillions of scrap ideas....interesting idea jen.....hmmmm need to put that idea in the vault of kerri information hehehe, thanks ladies"yay"

[Leanne]

I like 3 pics to be side by side, no gaps, at the bottom of the page. I think it looks great. Then you can fit another pic, journalling or something above them.


Yep I was going to suggest that next but across the middle of the page.
Title on top and journalling on the bottom.

[mumof5]

can you do your journelling bigger?

we are a nit picking bunch arnt we.
we should all go through our challenge for feb and get ideas what we could do to improve our work

[Leanne]

Nah I dont think we are nit picking we all have diff styles and they are all great.

[sexymummie]

i totally get what u mean about my journalling being just that little bit too small, & nah its never nit picking , i love all opinions if not i would tell ya where to shove it hahaha hehehe:devil:

[mumof5]

thats good,i love hearing different ways i could of done mine,
and take the advice for my next LO

Ps.tell dave great job,6mths 3weeks 3 days thats fantastic

[sexymummie]

thakns for the comment about dave & his non smokingness, if any smoker out there wants me 2 burn ya a copy of this hyponsis cd, i can send it to who ever is seriously considering it. as its something u listen to every nite when u go to bed & trust me it may seem silly at 1st, but it has worked for my man, a smoker for 20yrs...* ok that realllllllly shows his age * LOL hes only 35...but thanks mumof5, i think that has made his night:13:

[sexymummie]

ok once the kiddies are at mum's 2nite, i will b redoing this page, keeping in mind all the input & great tips....:devil: but all input is in the ever growing scrap binder of wisdom hehehe

[Leanne]
