This is wonderful! I love that you used the photo twice, because it deserves to be the star of the layout. Such a pretty heritage feel to the whole thing... Love it!
This layout made me stop and stare when I saw it in the newsletter this morning. The photo is so genuine, and I love the way the striped pattern paper in the background draws your eye to the picture. Great work!
Wow, what a scary story -- but so glad he was all right! Your layout is lovely. The photos are so precious, and your colors are beautiful together. Great job!
