I think this page looks great! I love the colors and the plaid and especially the way the photos are laid out. If you're really looking for suggestions I think I'd change the title font to make it more readable. It gets a little lost in the background but it may just be because I'm seeing it smaller than it really is. Then maybe a tag with some journaling under the large photo. The button and shells are excellent and give good balance! Your little girl wearing your husband's hat is just precious.

I also think this a beautiful page but I agree with "Buttercup". Maybe you should change the font. You could also try to change the angle of the beads (?) at the bottom of the page so that they go the other way (making them look like a V).

What precious pictures. Your dd is adorable. I also agree with Diane on the font color. For me it just sort of fades into the background and is hard to see but I thought it was just my eyes.

Adorable layout - it seems we are all having trouble seeing the title! I also like the suggestion of changing the angle to form a "v" - it will be fun to see the lo again if you try the changes!! It's really okay, though, the way it is!!

This is a wonderfully sweet layout, however I also have to agree on the font. I really like the way you have everything laid out.

Great job on this, but yes, agree with both font and bottom beads to form a V... Then if you move your bottom title over it will be uniform with the top one and your page should not look empty!! Which reminds me.. we talked about having a place where people could put their layouts when they want feedback....  You are a big help FEEJIE, thanks!

Looks like everybody's in agreement on this one. It's a great layout, but the font is hard to read. They are precious photos and your elements help draw your eye straight to them. Please do post it again if you make the changes. I'd love to see a before and after!

Your photos are adorable especially the focal point photo. Love the color choices. I have read everyone's comments and I so agree that the font needs to be changed. It is very hard to read plus it needs to be moved over or made smaller so it doesn't touch the beads. If you keep the layout as is then a bit of journaling would be nice in that empty spot under the focal photo. But if you move the beads into a V like they suggested then that would probably remove that empty spot there. I would also probably change the matting of the focal photo to maybe white so it stands out more. It's supposed to be your focal photo and right now it blends with the smaller photos if that makes any sense. Please post your changes if you make them I'd love to see before and after as well. Great job.

Great ideas here...helpful for us all to read everyone's suggestion. I think journaling would add so much. I have a tendancy to not journaling enough...take for granted years from now I or whoever is in the LO will remember everything about the event! Heck...I can't even remember everthing that happened yesterday!

I love the layout but I do agree with the others. I especially like the photo of daddy and daughter, so sweet!
