...and yet, more pages...

Here's another two...just finished the Kaitlyn one for a challenge on the DSP site and the Scott/Lindsey one was for a challege too...i told scott i'd post this so he could see it! (i'll make you a CD of it, don't worry!--hey, anyone [well, by anyone i mean friends who are in the layouts!] who'd like a CD of these pages, just let me know. usually the images are too big to email, so i can burn you a disc if you want them for screensavers, desktops, to print, to post somewhere, etc.)

got quite a few comments that people liked the red/black/white color scheme--guess what--i like it, too! thought these pix needed a red background bc scott's shirt was red. but then the colorful wallpaper behind them didn't go, so i made the pix b/w and then lessed the opacity so the color shines thru a little...i LOVE the black swirls that, with the added shadows, look like they're velvet or flocked!


isn't miss kaitlyn so cute? all these pix are from 2008...cake and ducky ones from her bday, left one from halloween (she was a "hippie"!) and heart from craft fair in december (eating chocolate chip cookie, got it on her teeth). i used a lot of different kits to make this "blingy" page, so i thought color photos would make it too busy--switched them all to b/w. i actually started making the page & deciding which elements went well together before i chose the pictures--when i saw all the "bling", i decided this page needed to be a kaitlyn page! she's a little princess (she used to say she wanted to be a princess when she grew up--how cute is that?!?), also a spoiled gal, and thought the gold and silver would work well for her. i'm not in love with the alpha i used, but it was gold & silver, so it had to go in!

don't forget: comments/suggestions gladly accepted!!!
