Memories Layout

I'm making a book for a graduating senior, boy, which is due in June. Endless hours of time have been put into these books-1 turned into 3 to keep the books under two inches thick. I think anymore then that and it's too much to take in and the books get worn down so easily. Michael's had a sale and I thought it was the best route to go. 

For today's layout I used the color combo Blue-Green-Yellow from the challenge at Mark's Finest Papers. I did stamp the names that appear next to the appropriate picture. The placement of the photos was a very scientific formula of hide the shapes that were already cut out of the paper. The polka dot paper is by Rusty something-they are no longer in business-just had a thought Rusty Pickle maybe. The blue cardstock is by Doodlebug and the white is the paper in the pages before you add your layouts. Yeah I'm thrifty like that-I was going to say cheap but thrifty or using the paper is part of my green effort towards the world. *grin*.

The rest of the cardstock that I used n the die cut is by Recollections. The die cut is cut out using the Cricut however I don't remember the cartridge. Sorry. I stamped the kids' names with a Lawn Fawn alphabet set and black ink by Hero Arts.

Thanks for looking.
