Apple Picking Layout

This is my most recent completed layout, featuring pictures from our trip the apple orchard last September. I'd already made a mini photobook with Zoom Albums and a special apple frame but wanted to make sure it had a place in my family scrapbooks too.I barely had enough scraps of this apple paper to eek out these borders for my page. It's been one of my favorites from a scrap pad and is one of the few times I used all four sheets of the same paper. The title is cut with my Sizzix machine and three metal brads finish off the subtitle.
To keep the page clean and uncluttered looking, and still include so many pictures, I used textured cardstock for most of the background. I like textured cardstock because it gives it a little more interest than flat would. Two dimentional apple stickers finish off this quick page.

  2. I LOVE this layout! I love to see layouts that are the same but flipped (does that makes sense) and they aren't always easy to put together. :) Thanks for sharing! I can see why you would use 4 sheets of that paper, it's adorable!
