Elton in April

SHCG: I admit, I laughed when I first looked at this (totally in a good way though)! The contrast between the manly picture and the purple flowers just tickled me for some reason. :) I think this is a great calendar page... the flowers are very spring-y and the ribbon stickers add a festive touch. Great job!

SHCG: Hee Hee LUV the purple flowers. It may not be the most manly of layouts but it so great who cares. and the doodling adds just the right touch.

SHCG: Non-masculine colors for a masculine page never really bothered me. I think it's best to complement the photo colors which you did with the orange. You have a lot of good suggestions. I'm with bringing the flowers closer together and closer to the photo. The only thing I have to add is to play up the sparkly stickers by scattering some foil mini squares above left and below left of the photo onto the bg paper.

SHCG: Great flowers! Love them! I think you should mat the photo and move the flowers closer to the photo!

SHCG: I love the angeled picture. I would suggest moving the picture down at either corner of the page, to give it a more negative space feel and I would also suggest clustering the flowers at the bottom corner of the photo. I do love the colors and flowers very much, great job :)

SHCG - It is a unique palette for a masculine page but as it's for April in a calendar, it works well. I really like the fresh pp, colors & embellies, as well as the lighthearted angled placement. I think the photo could use some additional emphasis; as Janet suggested, a thin purple matte (or any solid bright color that coordinates w/ your fantastic pp & flowers - orange, fuchsia, copper, blue) would do that nicely. Overall, a playful & spirited page, TFS! And a very thoughtful project for your BIL.

SHCG: I like the embellishments but still feel the page is missing something. I'd like to see the photo matted with a thin purple border and I'd also like to see a border of some sort around the edges of the page.

shcg: an interesting palette of colors for a masculine lo. love the textures in the layered flowers. some suggestions to give you page a bit more "oomph" -- a doodled border around the entire 12x12 could add a lot, as could the same around your pp/photo (i'd suggest a random border around the large page and maybe stitching around the pp). the stickers seem a bit out of place -- i could almost see the two being used as a photo corner of sorts.
