As an art piece, I like it. I don't think it would work in an album at all.

I like the split up picture, though. I might try that.

What do you like about this layout? It is a beautiful page and i like the embellishments
What don't you like about this layout? Where as I like cut pictures I do not like cut faces, I do not like how it looks here and I thing the page would have been better without the cut picture.
Any other comments? I wonder how much the embellies on this page cost?

What do you like about this layout? I think the embellishments are pretty neat.
What don't you like about this layout? I really don't like the cut photo. I think that particular picture would look much better as a whole instead of cut. I could also see using 3 small pictures in place of the 3 sections of the cut one.
Any other comments? I think I would have done the clock in a different color and the leaves in more of a green....I think it looks a little odd with the green clock and more of a brown leaf with the bright pink flowers.

From the looks of it she claims to have used die cuts for the leaves, flowers and gears, Now I am really impressed, it must have taken some time to do the floral stuff on that page.

I think those flowers would have taken forever! They look beautiful!

It is a nice page but not my style. I do not like the colors of the embelishments or the background paper. I also do not like to cut photos and agree that the photo would look better as a solid picture. However, those flowers are really pretty. Hard work!

I agree with Brittanie that it looks more like a piece of art as opposed to a scrap page. It's pretty, but I think I would have chosen some different colors. I like the idea of the cut picture.

The flowers are beautiful..... Otherwise, I'm not thrilled with the layout.... I can't imagine cutting a picture of a beautiful baby (especially across the face).

Jess did a beautiful page where she cut sunset pics, I loved that. I just can't imagine cutting a baby's face.

I don't like it at all, it just doesn't go together to me. If i look at every piece separately they are beautiful, just not together and while i do like the idea of a cut picture this one didn't work. It took away from the LO.

A face I would have a hard time cutting....a bigger picture where you can use the face as one of the pictures and not cut thru the face would be nice.

Brittanie, I noticed there weren't a lot of us that liked to cut pictures.


ETA the page Becky was talking about
