You did an awesome job on this layout. I love the slides along the left and the stitching looks great... I know this is digital but at first glance I didn't think so...

Wow, you can hardley tell that this is digital because it looks so great!

Absolutely love this lo--my favorite of yours so far. Love the title and the pics down the side. Could you make the knots the same color as the flowers--oh, I see Sherrise already suggested that (I'm very tired tonight!) With digital, I assume you can experiment some with the color. Also, the slides mounts are awesome. And, yes Godzoned, slide mounts are wonderful--you can buy them, cut them, trace them, get dies for them, or digitize them. There are fabulous examples in the gallery too.

Ohhhh I think the whole thing really works out well. I love the little frames down the side with pictures in them. I have been sent some and i was wondering what they were for. lol - New to scrappbooking and still discovering the little things. I like the reflection of the larger and smaller ribbons as well as the larger and smaller flowers. well done. The rule of thumb in graphic design is to use 2 fonts at the most. Sometimes you can break the rules if it works. You have made this work. My advice though is use the same font in the "embrace" as you did in the journaling and it would have tyed together more. But that is just my design training kicking in there. Thanks so much for shareing. I love the colours you used. I can see you have a real eye for layout. :)

Oh! This may be may favorite of yours yet!!!! The pink is perfect to help bring out her coat!!! The "inking" is awesome....LOVE IT!

I think this is great! love the title! I agree with pp about the color of the ribbons, they look cute there but a different color, i also agree with resa about the anchors on the journaling boxes, they look funny to me, so I think her suggestion about spacing them would look a lil better. GREAT lo!!!!

This is beautiful, love the colors you chose for this. And your pictures of you daughter are excellent. Wonderful job.

I think this LO looks great! I like the ribbon knots, they are placed well, and I do think the brown color works, although since it is digi it might be worthwhile to try another color (if you have more ribbon knot accents in another color). A very small suggestion I have for you - when I look at the journaling box, I would love to see those clips with the left one up higher on the side and the right one lower on the side (maybe 1/2" from the top and 1/2" from the bottom, respectively?). I really like the inking on the edges of the title paper strip (did this piece come with your software or did you finally figure out how to "ink" in digi? Either way, it's great) and the main accent flower is just wonderful - love that big shiny center!

Love, love, love this LO! It does not look digital at all. It has a nice dimension to it! I love the stitching on the frame around the large pic, the slide mounts and all that ribbon! I like the color of the ribbons. I think it goes well with the dark font, faux stitching and the trees in the pics. I wouldn't change a thing on this one.

Beautiful layout! I love the title and the slides on the side - Very, very nice work! TFS

Amazing lo!! Love the color scheme, the ribbons, and the flower. I also like the little "slides" you created for the smaller photos along the side. The stitching along the frame of the main photo looks great too. I may have to try to scraplift this design. Definitely going into my favorites!!

I like the ribbons too.. but I agree, maybe not in brown? How bout the color of the flower.. can you change them? These are really lovely pictures, and I love the green scheme! Great job!
