birthday boy.

little truth pill, these pictures in color were not very good at all...Black and white they are FABULOUS--thank goodness I had an option! ;)  This particular layout was featured on the American Crafts blog yesterday:
 I had fun using my silhouette the circle background and lined cuts underneath the photo--challenged myself to use a few different cuts on a layout.
here are some closer ups:
 I used a mix of the Yes, Please line and the thickers are from The girl line as well....LOVE when I can mix product to make something fun!  Thanks for the visit today!!

Thanks for the reminder to convert photos to B & W when they aren't quite working. The circle background looks great!

What a cute layout! I love the little details and the photos look great in B&W sometimes that just happens like that and it works and your layout did!

I saw this on AC blog (haven't left a comment yet there) this is such a beautiful page. I love the softness and airy feel to it. I agree sometimes just make that photo BW to make it usable.
