A Perfect Day

Happy Wednesday! The middle of the week already, how great is that?

I am very happy to show you another layout today.
This is a very simple layout with minimal embellishments, but I love it. I especially love the photographs which were taken at a local garden (I wrote about our visit to the garden here).

While I was creating, I second guessed the simplicity of this page, worried that perhaps it was missing something, but anything extra that I tried to add just looked off, so I stuck with simple....

I put this layout together at the same time as I was completing this one. Using the same papers and embellishments (Summer Bliss by Echo Park) I had both pages laid out on my table and just moved between them, adding tidbits to each page as I was inspired, until they were both done.

I love this cluster of patterned paper and descriptive words in the corner.
Did you notice that there is no title on this page? This is something that I have noticed in scrapbooking lately...many layouts out and around do not have a dominating title, in fact they don't even have a title at all. I love this as an option when creating a layout. Add a title or not, it is really okay either way. Kind of a reminder that there is no strict recipe for a scrapbook layout....just do what you love.

As always, thanks for stopping by and happy crafting.

    you prove you don't have to add too much "stuff" to make a cute layout!
    I'm trying to be more like that.
    I'm following you now and looking forward to much more inspiration!

    1. Thank you Doreen. I really appreciate your comment as I sometimes worry that my style is too simple, especially when I see other layouts that are just loaded with stuff. Happy to have you following along.
