Digital Scrapper Extraordinaire!

Again, a very lovely LO. It's not overdone so it does invite the viewer to look at the photos. My only suggestion and maybe you were going to do this when you eventually submitted to the regular gallery, is to add Font names and name of the designer, etc. You can find exact instructions on this elsewhere.

Someone else may have answers to your question. I think you are off to a great start.

Thank you for your comment, it is most encouraging. I have added the details, which were on the main gallery, but guess I forgot about it here. As for the design, although I began with a Scrap it Now template, I added and varied it so much I think the page design now is by me, for both pages.

Hi nanna,
Well, if you're new to digital scrapbooking, one would never know it by looking at these two beautiful pages. They are both very well composed and well organized. As I'm sure you've discovered by now, it's not easy to place multiple images like this over a two-page spread and have everything come out looking so wonderful.

Your journaling is great. Very nicely done. I like that you let the photos themselves tell most of the story, and that you didn't try to weigh down the page with a lot of other embellishments. When I first saw these thumbnails, I thought I was looking at a page by Susie Roberts.

The only suggest I might make is to create a stronger title for the pages. The ornate script font is a bit delicate, and doesn't seem to coordinate with the font you used for the journaling. So maybe something a bit easier to read. Try a nice looking text font, as opposed to introducing another script font on the page.

Very nice work! Can't wait to see more from you...
