a layout that she isn't

JaeDee says to (2007-9-24 22:5:59):

nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:6:0):

roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:6:2):
that is cute with all those words in it
JaeDee says to (2007-9-24 22:6:3):
Good Idea
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:6:14):
yes we can certainly all learn from these suggestions!!!
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:6:18):
Hi Deb, didn't see you there :)
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:6:23):
hi, chris!
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:6:32):
I love her LO I have no cc for her.
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:6:33):
I agree, cute, unique way to use words.
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:6:34):
maybe make the pictures black and white instead of the red hue. And if you wanted some color, add a small element in a bright color.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:6:39):
has everyone had a chance to see it?
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:6:43):

ilv2cruise says to (2007-9-24 22:6:52):
yes
*** (2007-9-24 22:6:58):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , kassuzi !
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:6:59):
but I loved the LO from the get go
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:7:2):
don't be afraid to give CCS
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:7:8):
i agree do b& w w// touch of color
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:7:10):
that is an adorable layout
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:7:11):
she posted it so that she could get them :)
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:7:11):
I think I would like them better in black and white also
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:7:12):
I kind of liked the diversity of color, maybe play it down.
kassuzi says to (2007-9-24 22:7:15):
hello
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:7:16):
I think the picture color needs to be changed also
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:7:16):
i red seems a bit much for the photos
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:7:25):
I wonder if the words need to be in a bigger font
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:7:33):
about double the size
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:7:34):
i probably would have stayed away from the red hue and gone maybe a sepia instead but other than that it looks great
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:7:34):
agree -- maybe the words in bigger font
LadyPhoto says to (2007-9-24 22:7:35):
B & W photos with the background/puzzle-pieces in a color
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:7:46):
I don't really like the b&w with the sepia but the LO itself is gorgeous
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:7:47):
I agree the color is a little overwhelming
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:7:47):
I love the words, my one thing is personal preference but I don't like faces being chopped up
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:7:55):
I would protect the eye color
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:7:57):
yes, Sepia would have been a good choice.
LadyPhoto says to (2007-9-24 22:8:12):
Large title along the bottom
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:8:25):
i was trying to find a place for title also
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:8:31):
Good idea for a title to be used.
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:8:33):
I agree about a title somewhere
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:8:43):
Erase the bits of the puzzle that cut their faces up?
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:8:45):
and I can't decide whether or not it would be easier if the words actually spelt out the title (multiple times) over all the pieces, either on each piece or just put the title on the layout and let the jigsaw pieces cut it up
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:8:47):
could she somehow get the face on a puzzle piece not chopped.
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:8:49):
maybe square up the whole LO as if it's the top of a puzzle box and then...
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:8:50):
perhaps smaller pieces of the jigsaw and try to miss lines through the faces
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:8:54):
my chat just froze...that was scary!!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:8:55):
LOL
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:9:0):
...put the title around the edge of the 'box'???
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:9:7):
esp the baby on the left where it is way chopped up
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:9:13):
how about centering the faces in a puzzle piece
Victoria says to (2007-9-24 22:9:13):
I think the words in a bigger font would look better to me it looks too busy
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:9:17):
overall very very cute LO.
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:9:19):
oh I just had a good idea
*** (2007-9-24 22:9:22):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , moog25 !
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:9:25):
I love the idea of the layout
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:9:27):
i'm going to try the puzzle idea!
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:9:31):
mmaybe tone down the color a bit and color a few of the puzzle pieces
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:9:36):
It is a very cute layout and I love the concept
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:9:38):
I think maybe the pieces cut in inconvenient places though
*** (2007-9-24 22:9:45):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , Dani B !
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:9:51):
I agree
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:9:52):
maybe the cuts need to be moved
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:9:55):
why don't you pick on of each of the words and do them in Red, that would make it easier to figure out what it is saying
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:9:58):
The pieces did cut in less than desirable places
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:9:59):
Hi everyone
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:10:0):
other than the redness i love it
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:10:0):
I'm late, was working on a layout
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:10:0):
the concept is fantastic
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:10:5):
pick one I mean
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:10:5):
great idea, and play on words.
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:10:11):
I like the idea of the puzzle pieces for the wording, but not the bottom.
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:10:11):
a different background with the words just the once as a title
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:10:11):
that's ok moog!!!
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:10:22):
Yeah, I think the large black puzzle pieces look a little overwhelming on top of the kids
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:10:26):
what are we doing?
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:10:29):
ok, I think those are all
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:10:30):
great ideas
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:10:38):
I will post those so you can absorb
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:10:39):

gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:11:11):
Mommabyrd the word pieces seems smaller than the other words too
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:11:12):

reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:11:44):
You could angle the photo and add an element to "weight" it down.
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:11:55):
welcome laura
*** (2007-9-24 22:11:56):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , rrs6 !
lauraloub says to (2007-9-24 22:11:58):
Hi Ladies.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:4):
I love the blue elements, but I am not sure if the blue tint to the photo is a little too much
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:12:5):
that's a great picture to start with!
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:12:8):
too much blue.. and I love the color blue
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:12:9):
Hi Laura
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:12:10):
might be a bit too blue
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:12:11):
maybe not put the separate word on each piece. put the whole
phrase on the all, maybe in different fonts?
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:12:15):
my focus goes to the white shirts
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:12:17):
wow is that your daughter or what Fran!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:17):
maybe tone it done as B& W or sepia
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:12:19):
play with levels a little the baby on the left seems too blown out
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:12:21):
needs a touch of some other color
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:23):
or just a little less blue
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:12:32):
change the colour of the photo itself, it's too much like the rest of the LO
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:12:36):
my son
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:12:43):
make the photo POP
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:12:45):
oh LOL
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:12:49):
Yes, it;s all a little too cool, needs something warm
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:12:52):
yeah i agree....just a little too much blue on the faces
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:53):
I love how the papers are placed, but maybe an angle
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:12:53):
maybe add some greens to make the LO pop
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:57):
I saw someone mention that
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:12:58):
see the colour is wrong I thought she looked like you
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:13:1):
and I completely agree
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:13:8):
maybe make it a strong B&W so it will stand out more ?
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:13:17):
maybe something 'round' behind the whole thing
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:13:20):
Perhaps move everything over a bit to the left and tilt
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:13:29):
What do you not like about this LO??
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:13:38):
(asking Fran)
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:13:40):
sorry!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:13:49):
Fran- what do you not like about your LO?
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:13:52):
looks a little unfinished...needs something at the to p or bigger layout..also ajust color..keep playin
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:13:56):
I really don't like much of anything about it
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:13:57):
maybe change from a blue hue to a different colour to make it stand out from the rest
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:14:1):
LOL
Victoria says to (2007-9-24 22:14:2):
the font and the title,
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:14:4):
how about a diamond shape behind the photo
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:14:9):
tilt does add more focus on the photo. I would go with another color on the photo.
*** (2007-9-24 22:14:16):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , DixieMama !
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:14:23):
and the heart looks a bit "squashed"
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:14:29):
I think if you add some more color and some angles
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:14:33):
maybe some more of the brads at the top right
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:14:34):
that might help
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:14:34):
you've got a great start on this one, Fran. with these suggestions, it will rock!!
lauraloub says to (2007-9-24 22:14:36):
For those of us who are late, could you give the URL again?

ilv2cruise says to (2007-9-24 22:14:50):
i agree with a different tint on the pic
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:14:55):
I think I would like the names a bit bigger.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:14:57):
there is PhotoQueenPhoto's LO
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:14:58):
Fran it's a good lo. Just tweak it.
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:14:59):
i think it could be that the txt makes it look like its been squished a bit
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:15:3):
i would change the babies outfit a little darker then brighted the pix
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:15:5):

maybe the name could be in a different color as well!

GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:15:27):
I did a layout like that once and Lauren told me to make my picture larger to give it more impact.
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:15:31):
had to visit my hubby's uncle for a bit
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:15:32):
Hi fmly1st
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:15:33):
Try using a different kit maybe?
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:15:40):
the top seems to be bare
doda says to (2007-9-24 22:15:43):
Hi, sorry I'm late, was uploading.
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:15:43):
I really like the heart on top of the ring. Very cute
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:15:45):
hi, Susan!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:15:45):
Sometimes just changing the elements helps a lot!
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:15:51):
i actually like most of it
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:15:56):
why not just change the matt or frame to a darker color - maybe a navy or black to make it stand out from the rest of the layout
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:15:59):
I love the photo and the elements you have used. Think that maybe the blue is a bit strong...and i commented onit earlier and told you I like the blue....so I am not sure.
rrs6 says to (2007-9-24 22:16:4):
Would look good with some journaling
Sallie K says to (2007-9-24 22:16:13):
Funhy, I like the monochromatic color look
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:16):
oh, I like the idea of journaling!!!
lauraloub says to (2007-9-24 22:16:17):
How about dropping out the background and making white space?
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:16:19):
agree -- journaling would look good
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:16:24):
Perhaps a B&W photo with a few accents in blue would work better
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:16:29):
so what have I missed?
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:16:38):
i like the mono look too
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:39):
my other off the wall idea would be to make this a graphic style

CC Fran's LO
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:16:44):
we are commenting on LOs so that we all learn
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:16:45):
Oh Laura that sounds like a good idea
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:49):
maybe enlarge the photo
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:16:52):

MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:16:53):
make photo bw
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:56):
and blend it into one of the backgrounds
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:17:0):
monochromatic is good here - it just needs to something to help separate each item - such as a darker frame or matt
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:17:4):
I agree about photo bigger
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:17:9):
that's the link that was posted?
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:9):
with the title and elements towards the bottom of the page
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:17:26):
I agree it needs more depth
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:17:27):
oh, ok..there it is :D
*** (2007-9-24 22:17:28):Dani B lost connection, left the room

GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:17:39):

Suggestions for RoadMap4Us’s LO:
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:40):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276</U></a>
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:17:47):
diamond strips should be same size as the brads on the heart
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:47):
that is RoadMap4us
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:17:50):
I would think journaling or a title would need added but I love the layout thus far
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:53):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276</U></a>
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:17:53):
ooops just noticed that...silly me
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:17:59):
lol
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:18:3):
that's funny that the parents are smiling and the kids aren't
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:18:5):
yes, i need help on this one!!
ferretmom says to (2007-9-24 22:18:6):
what about keeping the photo in orngal color
*** (2007-9-24 22:18:9):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , Dani B !
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:18:13):
i do have a bit of a crush on ya...lol
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:18:19):
sorry got bumped again
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:18:21):
did everyone get a chance to take a look
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:18:35):
first thing i thought of was make the yellow txt stand out more...it kind of fades into the green bg
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:18:37):
no making fun of the kids!!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:18:42):
that is me and my hubby!!!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:18:45):
LOL
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:18:50):
hehehehe
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:18:55):
you and Preston are soooo cute!
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:19:0):
awww! I wasn't making fun, I promise!
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:19:1):
I think you look lovely if that counts
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:19:4):
those 'kids' are in two different pictures, same pose
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:4):
what if you used a totally different color scheme
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:12):
and went with the Once upon a time
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:14):
idea
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:19:16):
I agree on the yellow fading into the background
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:20):
and created a journaled story
ilv2cruise says to (2007-9-24 22:19:21):
try a filter to make the picture not so washed out
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:19:24):
y'all are a beautiful family
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:19:25):
definitely darker title
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:19:32):
very cute. the note paper and some elements are a bit small
lauraloub says to (2007-9-24 22:19:33):
I recognize Yertle the Turtle.
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:19:35):
maybe a darker green to make it pop
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:19:40):
yep, yertle!
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:19:42):
up the contrast or saturation on the photos
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:19:47):
O of once gets lost behind that ring
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:47):
I loved Yertle the Turtle!!!!!!
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:19:51):
Agree title needs to be darker
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:19:54):
the ribbon lookes like it's going under the left photo
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:56):
I agree, the photos are too washed out
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:19:57):
The background paper is wrong i think
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:20:3):
Could I get that link one more time? I had to step away!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:12):
maybe make Preston's photo not look so cut off
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:20:13):
Needs journaling
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:15):
at the top
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:20:20):
The precious boy photo could use some more contrast maybe?
Victoria says to (2007-9-24 22:20:22):
Give the title a small outline stroke or a bevel to make it pop
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:20:22):
And the title too difficult to see
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:20:24):
Not sure if it would work but what about extracting the darlings altogether and blending them back to back
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:20:31):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276</U></a>
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:20:33):
i was thinking the same about prestons photo
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:33):
maybe some heritage colors...sepia, brown, red
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:35):
orange
felynn says to (2007-9-24 22:20:36):
the boy neds to be cut out fully looks weird atm
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:20:38):
thanks
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:41):
not the bright vivid ones
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:20:41):
i think change the lower part w/ title to teal like in the ribbon
rrs6 says to (2007-9-24 22:20:42):
I would make the photos the same shape, not cut out
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:59):
what do you like/dislike RoadMap (mom)?
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:21:0):
I like Nicole
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:21:9):
fill in the bit you've cut out of Preston's photo, it looks strange like that
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:21:18):
I agree Dawn
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:21:24):
I like Nicole's color idea
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:21:25):
I agree, too!
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:21:28):
and i agree, do some "book" things - titles of fave books eg.
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:21:34):
i like the pictures.
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:21:37):
I think journaling would be great here!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:21:40):
there are some great "book" kits in the store
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:21:41):
everything else -- i really struggled with
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:21:41):
was that for a reason the chunk out of the photo?
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:21:43):
maybe with a grey BG paper or soemthing if you don't want whatever it was in the photo you cut out
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:21:46):
You could try putting them lower on the page and the rest above it
JaeDee says to (2007-9-24 22:21:48):
The ring things are a bit distracting
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:21:48):
journalling would work great!
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:21:48):
I like the idea of extracting them and placing back to back
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:21:49):
a he said, she said list about book faves would be cute
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:21:51):
will take these ideas and try again.
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:21:57):
the little piece of journalling paper isn't really doing anything at the moment - move the circles over to mirror Nicole's circles
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:21:58):
sometimes if I have a photo with a black spot or something that need covering up I use an element there.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:21:58):
oh Gundi that would be cute!
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:22:0):
Nicole cut the pic up when she was little
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:22:9):
Ooh!!!I like listing book favorites!!!
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:22:14):
journalling and take out the nnotebook paper and add little book
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:22:14):
LOL
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:22:19):
ty :)
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:22:19):
really?
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:22:23):
lol
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:22:32):
Extraction would be my choice also.
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:22:34):
yes the conversation would be nice.
*** (2007-9-24 22:22:36):moog25 lost connection, left the room
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:22:36):
NO!!! I didn't know him back then!! LOL
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:22:36):
Thank HEaven for Photoshop and the cloning tool! LOL
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:22:43):
other than the yellow txt not standing out i quite like it
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:22:51):
ok, do you have some good ideas mom?
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:22:53):
oh lol. well it would have been interesting journalling
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:22:59):
got it! Thanks all!!
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:23:6):
Oh wait that was me and I spilled Cpt Crunch on my pics
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:23:10):
Love the his/hers favourites idea.... so why not move the title onto a piece of "card" and put in the corner of Preston's photo
Suggestions for PurdueLiz’s LO:
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:12):
ok, one more, and unfortunately she is not here
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:22):
so I will post the transcript so she can see it
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:29):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=191120&cat=500&ppuser=44506' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=191120&cat=500&ppuser=44506</U></a>
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:37):
PurdueLiz's
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:23:38):
what about if you cloned the wall in the cut up part of the photo?
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:42):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=191120&cat=500&ppuser=44506' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=191120&cat=500&ppuser=44506</U></a>
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:23:53):
how precious is that
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:23:55):
I like it just as is!
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:23:59):
more translucent wings
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:59):
I did too
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:24:2):
That's hilarious!!!!!
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:24:2):
needs journaling down the side i think
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:12):
the only thing is to maybe make the photo larger
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:24:13):
so cute!
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:24:14):
adorable. Love it like it is
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:24:14):
the photo isn't large enough it seems lost on the page
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:24:15):
Maybe doodles instead of 'hard' elements
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:24:15):
M:y first suggestion: give that baby some britches
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:24:15):
I've seen this one before! I almost scraplifted it!
Song Catcher says to (2007-9-24 22:24:17):
So Cute!
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:24:19):
maybe photo little bigger
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:24:24):
I like the journaling idea, but this picture also speakes for itself! LOL!
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:24:28):
Like it would like the pic a bit bigger though
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:32):
and the writing sort of fades into the stripes
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:24:37):
bums don't stay that cute for long
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:39):
maybe a different paper below
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:24:45):
lolol
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:46):
NO they don't!!!!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:50):
LOL
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:24:52):
I would put in some faded stamps or overlay/texture on the top green!
*** (2007-9-24 22:24:55):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , moog25 !
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:24:57):
maybe put the title in green if anything, but that may blend with the stripes
JaeDee says to (2007-9-24 22:25:1):
those beads could go behind the flowers
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:25:5):
I say bigger picture and lower the opacity on the wings a bit
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:25:6):
I so wouldnt change that page
Victoria says to (2007-9-24 22:25:9):
Move title off of the striped paper into upper portion of LO
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:25:10):
i think take the wings off the boy and add em to the side flying away
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:25:11):
got bumped
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:25:16):
an overlay would be nice and the stripes are too stong
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:25:16):
lol i just love this other than the bare (excuse the pun) space next to the photo
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:16):
what do you think of the even elements on both
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:25:19):
I thought this one was heavy on the bottom (no pun intended) :-) with nothing on the top.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:19):
sides of the photo?
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:25:22):
a small element on the hinny. That way the kid won't be mind showing it to their friend later :_
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:25:26):
what layout is this?
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:25:26):
I cant get the LO up can I please have the link again
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:25:28):
title hard to see on the stripes
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:28):
do you like that or should it be unever
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:25:31):
take out the bottom beads
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:25:34):
uneven
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:35):
uneven??
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:25:42):
drop the photo to the bottom right and put the title in the top left - like the child is looking at the quote over the fence
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:42):
I think uneven too!
LadyPhoto says to (2007-9-24 22:25:42):
Move photo down and put writing on top into the green
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:25:44):
or as someone says put them under the flowers
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:25:50):
no i like it even
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:25:51):
uneven
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:25:52):
wordart could be higher... its a little low
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:25:56):
this one is hard to improve on
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:26:1):
ilike that honeymoon
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:26:8):
again- i am thinking maybe make it more of a graphic style
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:26:9):
bottom right corner seems very busy to me
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:26:9):
Oh! I like moving the title, too!
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:26:16):
thats so true roadmap
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:26:17):
so that the wings look more natural
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:26:18):
like it honeymoon
gmacochrane says to (2007-9-24 22:26:20):
That's a good idea honey!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:26:21):
(if that is possible)
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:26:24):
I like the idea of the wings being a bit less colorful
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:26:30):
I'd make the photo a little bigger and the word art a little smaller-
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:26:32):
nicole, what do you mean by graphic style?
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:26:34):
Me, too! Carma!
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:26:44):
more translusent!
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:26:50):
and uneven elements on the sides
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:26:50):
the corners and flowers seem too symetrical
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:26:54):
or make it darker- it kinda blends into the background a little
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:26:55):
graphic style would be something that you can not do with actual paper elements
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:27:1):
The rest I would keep.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:27:1):
so you do a lot of blending
kassuzi says to (2007-9-24 22:27:6):
I love the photo
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:27:17):
..can someone help me explain graphic???
*** (2007-9-24 22:27:18):Ordie lost connection, left the room
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:27:19):
flowers need to be over the beads
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:27:21):

roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:27:33):
i think you did a good job on the 'graphic' definition!
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:27:35):
But this little guy I would leave as is.
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:27:35):

photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:27:43):
This is such a cute layout - but I think I would completely eliminate the green beads

hi, chris!
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:6:32):
I love her LO I have no cc for her.
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:6:33):
I agree, cute, unique way to use words.
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:6:34):
maybe make the pictures black and white instead of the red hue. And if you wanted some color, add a small element in a bright color.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:6:39):
has everyone had a chance to see it?

don't be afraid to give CCS
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:7:8):
i agree do b& w w// touch of color
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:7:10):
that is an adorable layout
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:7:11):
she posted it so that she could get them :)
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:7:11):
I think I would like them better in black and white also
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:7:12):
I kind of liked the diversity of color, maybe play it down.
kassuzi says to (2007-9-24 22:7:15):
hello
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:7:16):
I think the picture color needs to be changed also
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:7:16):
i red seems a bit much for the photos
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:7:25):
I wonder if the words need to be in a bigger font
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:7:33):
about double the size
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:7:34):
i probably would have stayed away from the red hue and gone maybe a sepia instead but other than that it looks great
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:7:34):
agree -- maybe the words in bigger font
LadyPhoto says to (2007-9-24 22:7:35):
B & W photos with the background/puzzle-pieces in a color
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:7:46):
I don't really like the b&w with the sepia but the LO itself is gorgeous
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:7:47):
I agree the color is a little overwhelming
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:7:47):
I love the words, my one thing is personal preference but I don't like faces being chopped up
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:7:55):
I would protect the eye color
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:7:57):
yes, Sepia would have been a good choice.
LadyPhoto says to (2007-9-24 22:8:12):
Large title along the bottom
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:8:25):
i was trying to find a place for title also
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:8:31):
Good idea for a title to be used.
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:8:33):
I agree about a title somewhere
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:8:43):
Erase the bits of the puzzle that cut their faces up?
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:8:45):
and I can't decide whether or not it would be easier if the words actually spelt out the title (multiple times) over all the pieces, either on each piece or just put the title on the layout and let the jigsaw pieces cut it up
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:8:47):
could she somehow get the face on a puzzle piece not chopped.
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:8:49):
maybe square up the whole LO as if it's the top of a puzzle box and then...
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:8:50):
perhaps smaller pieces of the jigsaw and try to miss lines through the faces
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:8:54):
my chat just froze...that was scary!!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:8:55):
LOL
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:9:0):
...put the title around the edge of the 'box'???
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:9:7):
esp the baby on the left where it is way chopped up
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:9:13):
how about centering the faces in a puzzle piece
Victoria says to (2007-9-24 22:9:13):
I think the words in a bigger font would look better to me it looks too busy
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:9:17):
overall very very cute LO.
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:9:19):
oh I just had a good idea

i'm going to try the puzzle idea!
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:9:31):
mmaybe tone down the color a bit and color a few of the puzzle pieces
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:9:36):
It is a very cute layout and I love the concept
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:9:38):
I think maybe the pieces cut in inconvenient places though
*** (2007-9-24 22:9:45):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , Dani B !
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:9:51):
I agree
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:9:52):
maybe the cuts need to be moved
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:9:55):
why don't you pick on of each of the words and do them in Red, that would make it easier to figure out what it is saying
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:9:58):
The pieces did cut in less than desirable places
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:9:59):
Hi everyone
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:10:0):
other than the redness i love it

nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:10:0):
the concept is fantastic
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:10:5):
pick one I mean
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:10:5):
great idea, and play on words.
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:10:11):
I like the idea of the puzzle pieces for the wording, but not the bottom.
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:10:11):
a different background with the words just the once as a title
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:10:11):
that's ok moog!!!
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:10:22):
Yeah, I think the large black puzzle pieces look a little overwhelming on top of the kids
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:10:26):
what are we doing?
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:10:29):
ok, I think those are all

that's a great picture to start with!
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:12:8):

SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:12:9):
Hi Laura
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:12:10):
might be a bit too blue
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:12:11):
maybe not put the separate word on each piece. put the whole
phrase on the all, maybe in different fonts?
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:12:15):
my focus goes to the white shirts
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:12:17):
wow is that your daughter or what Fran!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:17):
maybe tone it done as B& W or sepia
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:12:19):
play with levels a little the baby on the left seems too blown out
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:12:21):
needs a touch of some other color
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:23):
or just a little less blue
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:12:32):
change the colour of the photo itself, it's too much like the rest of the LO
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:12:36):
my son
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:12:43):
make the photo POP
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:12:45):
oh LOL
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:12:49):
Yes, it;s all a little too cool, needs something warm
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:12:52):
yeah i agree....just a little too much blue on the faces
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:53):
I love how the papers are placed, but maybe an angle
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:12:53):
maybe add some greens to make the LO pop
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:12:57):
I saw someone mention that
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:12:58):
see the colour is wrong I thought she looked like you
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:13:1):
and I completely agree
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:13:8):
maybe make it a strong B&W so it will stand out more ?
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:13:17):
maybe something 'round' behind the whole thing
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:13:20):
Perhaps move everything over a bit to the left and tilt
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:13:29):
What do you not like about this LO??
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:13:38):

I really don't like much of anything about it
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:13:57):
maybe change from a blue hue to a different colour to make it stand out from the rest
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:14:1):
LOL
Victoria says to (2007-9-24 22:14:2):
the font and the title,
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:14:4):
how about a diamond shape behind the photo
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:14:9):
tilt does add more focus on the photo. I would go with another color on the photo.

maybe some more of the brads at the top right
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:14:34):
that might help
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:14:34):
you've got a great start on this one, Fran. with these suggestions, it will rock!!
lauraloub says to (2007-9-24 22:14:36):

*** (2007-9-24 22:14:46):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , fmly1st !
ilv2cruise says to (2007-9-24 22:14:50):
i agree with a different tint on the pic
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:14:55):
I think I would like the names a bit bigger.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:14:57):
there is PhotoQueenPhoto's LO
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:14:58):
Fran it's a good lo. Just tweak it.
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:14:59):
i think it could be that the txt makes it look like its been squished a bit
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:15:3):
i would change the babies outfit a little darker then brighted the pix
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:15:5):
Hello, All! :D
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:15:8):

nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:15:14):
maybe the name could be in a different color as well!
*** (2007-9-24 22:15:21):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , Ordie !
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:15:27):
I did a layout like that once and Lauren told me to make my picture larger to give it more impact.
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:15:31):
had to visit my hubby's uncle for a bit
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:15:32):
Hi fmly1st
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:15:33):
Try using a different kit maybe?
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:15:40):
the top seems to be bare
doda says to (2007-9-24 22:15:43):
Hi, sorry I'm late, was uploading.
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:15:43):
I really like the heart on top of the ring. Very cute
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:15:45):
hi, Susan!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:15:45):
Sometimes just changing the elements helps a lot!
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:15:51):
i actually like most of it
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:15:56):
why not just change the matt or frame to a darker color - maybe a navy or black to make it stand out from the rest of the layout
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:15:59):
I love the photo and the elements you have used. Think that maybe the blue is a bit strong...and i commented onit earlier and told you I like the blue....so I am not sure.
rrs6 says to (2007-9-24 22:16:4):
Would look good with some journaling
Sallie K says to (2007-9-24 22:16:13):
Funhy, I like the monochromatic color look
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:16):
oh, I like the idea of journaling!!!
lauraloub says to (2007-9-24 22:16:17):
How about dropping out the background and making white space?
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:16:19):
agree -- journaling would look good
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:16:24):
Perhaps a B&W photo with a few accents in blue would work better
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:16:29):
so what have I missed?
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:16:38):
i like the mono look too
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:39):
my other off the wall idea would be to make this a graphic style
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:41):
layout
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:16:43):
CC Fran's LO
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:16:44):
we are commenting on LOs so that we all learn
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:16:45):
Oh Laura that sounds like a good idea
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:49):
maybe enlarge the photo
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:16:52):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214565&cat=500&ppuser=51256' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214565&cat=500&ppuser=51256</U></a>
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:16:53):
make photo bw
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:16:56):
and blend it into one of the backgrounds
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:17:0):
monochromatic is good here - it just needs to something to help separate each item - such as a darker frame or matt
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:17:4):
I agree about photo bigger
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:17:9):
that's the link that was posted?
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:9):
with the title and elements towards the bottom of the page
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:17:26):
I agree it needs more depth
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:17:27):
oh, ok..there it is :D
*** (2007-9-24 22:17:28):Dani B lost connection, left the room
amy! says to dawn-in-nz (2007-9-24 22:17:31):
totally i agree w/ that
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:33):
ok- I am going on to the next LO
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:17:37):
beautiful photo!
dawn-in-nz says to amy! (2007-9-24 22:17:37):

GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:17:39):
Yes!! Nicole!!
Suggestions for RoadMap4Us’s LO:
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:40):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276</U></a>
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:17:47):
diamond strips should be same size as the brads on the heart
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:47):
that is RoadMap4us
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:17:50):
I would think journaling or a title would need added but I love the layout thus far
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:17:53):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276</U></a>

amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:17:59):
lol
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:18:3):
that's funny that the parents are smiling and the kids aren't
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:18:5):
yes, i need help on this one!!
ferretmom says to (2007-9-24 22:18:6):
what about keeping the photo in orngal color
*** (2007-9-24 22:18:9):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , Dani B !
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:18:13):
i do have a bit of a crush on ya...lol
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:18:19):
sorry got bumped again
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:18:21):
did everyone get a chance to take a look
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:18:35):
first thing i thought of was make the yellow txt stand out more...it kind of fades into the green bg
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:18:37):
no making fun of the kids!!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:18:42):
that is me and my hubby!!!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:18:45):
LOL
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:18:50):
hehehehe
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:18:55):
you and Preston are soooo cute!
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:19:0):
awww! I wasn't making fun, I promise!
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:19:1):
I think you look lovely if that counts
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:19:4):
those 'kids' are in two different pictures, same pose
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:4):
what if you used a totally different color scheme
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:12):
and went with the Once upon a time
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:14):
idea
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:19:16):
I agree on the yellow fading into the background
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:20):
and created a journaled story
ilv2cruise says to (2007-9-24 22:19:21):
try a filter to make the picture not so washed out
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:19:24):
y'all are a beautiful family
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:19:25):
definitely darker title
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:19:32):
very cute. the note paper and some elements are a bit small
lauraloub says to (2007-9-24 22:19:33):
I recognize Yertle the Turtle.
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:19:35):
maybe a darker green to make it pop
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:19:40):
yep, yertle!
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:19:42):
up the contrast or saturation on the photos
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:19:47):
O of once gets lost behind that ring
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:47):
I loved Yertle the Turtle!!!!!!
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:19:51):
Agree title needs to be darker
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:19:54):
the ribbon lookes like it's going under the left photo
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:19:56):
I agree, the photos are too washed out
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:19:57):
The background paper is wrong i think
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:20:3):
Could I get that link one more time? I had to step away!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:12):
maybe make Preston's photo not look so cut off
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:20:13):
Needs journaling
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:15):
at the top
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:20:20):
The precious boy photo could use some more contrast maybe?
Victoria says to (2007-9-24 22:20:22):
Give the title a small outline stroke or a bevel to make it pop
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:20:22):
And the title too difficult to see
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:20:24):
Not sure if it would work but what about extracting the darlings altogether and blending them back to back
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:20:31):
<a href='http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276' target='_blank'><U>http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=214191&cat=500&ppuser=41276</U></a>
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:20:33):
i was thinking the same about prestons photo
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:33):
maybe some heritage colors...sepia, brown, red
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:35):
orange
felynn says to (2007-9-24 22:20:36):
the boy neds to be cut out fully looks weird atm
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:20:38):
thanks
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:41):
not the bright vivid ones
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:20:41):
i think change the lower part w/ title to teal like in the ribbon
rrs6 says to (2007-9-24 22:20:42):
I would make the photos the same shape, not cut out
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:20:59):
what do you like/dislike RoadMap (mom)?
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:21:0):
I like Nicole
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:21:9):
fill in the bit you've cut out of Preston's photo, it looks strange like that
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:21:18):
I agree Dawn
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:21:24):
I like Nicole's color idea
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:21:25):
I agree, too!
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:21:28):
and i agree, do some "book" things - titles of fave books eg.
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:21:34):
i like the pictures.
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:21:37):
I think journaling would be great here!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:21:40):
there are some great "book" kits in the store
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:21:41):
everything else -- i really struggled with
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:21:41):
was that for a reason the chunk out of the photo?
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:21:43):
maybe with a grey BG paper or soemthing if you don't want whatever it was in the photo you cut out
Dani B says to (2007-9-24 22:21:46):
You could try putting them lower on the page and the rest above it
JaeDee says to (2007-9-24 22:21:48):
The ring things are a bit distracting
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:21:48):
journalling would work great!
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:21:48):
I like the idea of extracting them and placing back to back
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:21:49):
a he said, she said list about book faves would be cute
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:21:51):
will take these ideas and try again.
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:21:57):
the little piece of journalling paper isn't really doing anything at the moment - move the circles over to mirror Nicole's circles
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:21:58):
sometimes if I have a photo with a black spot or something that need covering up I use an element there.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:21:58):
oh Gundi that would be cute!
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:22:0):
Nicole cut the pic up when she was little
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:22:9):
Ooh!!!I like listing book favorites!!!
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:22:14):
journalling and take out the nnotebook paper and add little book
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:22:14):
LOL
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:22:19):
ty :)
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:22:19):
really?
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:22:23):
lol
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:22:32):
Extraction would be my choice also.
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:22:34):
yes the conversation would be nice.
*** (2007-9-24 22:22:36):moog25 lost connection, left the room

Thank HEaven for Photoshop and the cloning tool! LOL
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:22:43):
other than the yellow txt not standing out i quite like it
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:22:51):
ok, do you have some good ideas mom?
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:22:53):
oh lol. well it would have been interesting journalling
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:22:59):
got it! Thanks all!!
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:23:6):
Oh wait that was me and I spilled Cpt Crunch on my pics
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:23:10):
Love the his/hers favourites idea.... so why not move the title onto a piece of "card" and put in the corner of Preston's photo
Suggestions for PurdueLiz’s LO:
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:12):
ok, one more, and unfortunately she is not here
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:22):

nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:37):
PurdueLiz's
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:23:38):
what about if you cloned the wall in the cut up part of the photo?
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:42):

Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:23:53):
how precious is that
reneeshannon says to (2007-9-24 22:23:55):
I like it just as is!
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:23:59):
more translucent wings
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:23:59):
I did too
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:24:2):
That's hilarious!!!!!
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:24:2):
needs journaling down the side i think
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:12):
the only thing is to maybe make the photo larger
dovedesign says to (2007-9-24 22:24:13):
so cute!
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:24:14):
adorable. Love it like it is
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:24:14):
the photo isn't large enough it seems lost on the page
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:24:15):
Maybe doodles instead of 'hard' elements
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:24:15):
M:y first suggestion: give that baby some britches
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:24:15):
I've seen this one before! I almost scraplifted it!
Song Catcher says to (2007-9-24 22:24:17):
So Cute!
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:24:19):
maybe photo little bigger
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:24:24):
I like the journaling idea, but this picture also speakes for itself! LOL!
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:24:28):
Like it would like the pic a bit bigger though
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:32):
and the writing sort of fades into the stripes
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:24:37):
bums don't stay that cute for long
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:39):
maybe a different paper below
SusanG says to (2007-9-24 22:24:45):
lolol
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:46):
NO they don't!!!!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:24:50):
LOL
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:24:52):
I would put in some faded stamps or overlay/texture on the top green!
*** (2007-9-24 22:24:55):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , moog25 !
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:24:57):
maybe put the title in green if anything, but that may blend with the stripes
JaeDee says to (2007-9-24 22:25:1):
those beads could go behind the flowers
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:25:5):
I say bigger picture and lower the opacity on the wings a bit
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:25:6):
I so wouldnt change that page
Victoria says to (2007-9-24 22:25:9):
Move title off of the striped paper into upper portion of LO
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:25:10):
i think take the wings off the boy and add em to the side flying away
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:25:11):
got bumped
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:25:16):
an overlay would be nice and the stripes are too stong
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:25:16):
lol i just love this other than the bare (excuse the pun) space next to the photo
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:16):
what do you think of the even elements on both
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:25:19):
I thought this one was heavy on the bottom (no pun intended) :-) with nothing on the top.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:19):
sides of the photo?
GodBlessAmerica says to (2007-9-24 22:25:22):
a small element on the hinny. That way the kid won't be mind showing it to their friend later :_
moog25 says to (2007-9-24 22:25:26):
what layout is this?
spitfire0208 says to (2007-9-24 22:25:26):
I cant get the LO up can I please have the link again
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:25:28):
title hard to see on the stripes
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:28):
do you like that or should it be unever
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:25:31):
take out the bottom beads
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:25:34):
uneven
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:35):
uneven??
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:25:42):
drop the photo to the bottom right and put the title in the top left - like the child is looking at the quote over the fence
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:25:42):
I think uneven too!
LadyPhoto says to (2007-9-24 22:25:42):
Move photo down and put writing on top into the green
dawn-in-nz says to (2007-9-24 22:25:44):
or as someone says put them under the flowers
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:25:50):
no i like it even
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:25:51):
uneven
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:25:52):
wordart could be higher... its a little low
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:25:56):
this one is hard to improve on
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:26:1):
ilike that honeymoon
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:26:8):
again- i am thinking maybe make it more of a graphic style
gundimom says to (2007-9-24 22:26:9):
bottom right corner seems very busy to me
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:26:9):
Oh! I like moving the title, too!
Ordie says to (2007-9-24 22:26:16):
thats so true roadmap
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:26:17):
so that the wings look more natural
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:26:18):
like it honeymoon
gmacochrane says to (2007-9-24 22:26:20):
That's a good idea honey!
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:26:21):
(if that is possible)
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:26:24):
I like the idea of the wings being a bit less colorful
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:26:30):
I'd make the photo a little bigger and the word art a little smaller-
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:26:32):
nicole, what do you mean by graphic style?
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:26:34):
Me, too! Carma!
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:26:44):
more translusent!
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:26:50):
and uneven elements on the sides
MarsOlson says to (2007-9-24 22:26:50):
the corners and flowers seem too symetrical
minnmom79 says to (2007-9-24 22:26:54):
or make it darker- it kinda blends into the background a little
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:26:55):
graphic style would be something that you can not do with actual paper elements
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:27:1):
The rest I would keep.
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:27:1):
so you do a lot of blending
kassuzi says to (2007-9-24 22:27:6):
I love the photo
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:27:17):
..can someone help me explain graphic???
*** (2007-9-24 22:27:18):Ordie lost connection, left the room
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:27:19):
flowers need to be over the beads
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:27:21):
I like to blend
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:27:23):
LOL
roadmap4us says (2007-9-24 22:27:33):
i think you did a good job on the 'graphic' definition!
Carma says to (2007-9-24 22:27:35):
But this little guy I would leave as is.
honeymoon says to (2007-9-24 22:27:35):
graphic - computer generated - no shadows on things
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:27:37):
okay..you mean with filters etc?
DixieMama says to (2007-9-24 22:27:40):
you prety much said it nicole
mommabyrd2003 says to (2007-9-24 22:27:40):
artsy less realistic
photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:27:43):
This is such a cute layout - but I think I would completely eliminate the green beads
amy! says to (2007-9-24 22:27:44):
oh yep agree w/ flower beads
*** (2007-9-24 22:27:51):Welcome to DSP Chat Room 1 , missaboo !
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:27:56):
lol graphic...like fading the image into the bg paper itself so it looks like a watermark on the bg
missaboo says to (2007-9-24 22:27:58):
hi everyone!
ferretmom says to (2007-9-24 22:28:6):
agree too flowers over the beads
rtaron says to (2007-9-24 22:28:7):

photoqueenphoto says to (2007-9-24 22:28:27):
I wish the photo was a little larger too
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:28:34):
it is something that you can't do with paper
missaboo says to (2007-9-24 22:28:41):
what are we doing tonight?
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:28:43):
lots of blending, overlays, stuff like that
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:28:46):
:)
fmly1st says to (2007-9-24 22:28:49):
Love it!!
laurarid says to (2007-9-24 22:29:0):
yes like the image becomes part of the bg like a watermark
nicole young says to (2007-9-24 22:29:1):
