Took this photo today of my husband and son looking at the snow through the door. At a blank with this one. I really like the photo, but can't think of how I want to lay it out. I need a quote, too. So any suggestions for fonts, colors, composition, anything at all please let me know! -Alison

LOL, I kept staring at her photo the whole day at work, and I can see why you are having a hard time scrapping it.

How about creating a total snowy scene for the bg of the layout (could use a photo or make your own), and clone out the cars, put DH and DS into a bulky frame (one that stands out).

Sorry I cannot be of more help!!!

Thanks Natasha! I was thinking for a quote just simply saying "the view I share with you is the one I treasure the most". What do you think about that? If you have another way of wording it that you think it will be better, let me know! I really like the frame idea. I am going to have to play some more with it. -Alison

That is a lovely quote. And would work perfectly for your photo.

I did some more searching at work today (hee hee), here are my favourite ones I found at Two peas.

Take Time to touch each moment with love.

Celebrate every moment

Embrace the gifts of new tomorrows,
for hidden within each of them
are moments which
will not come again.

Joy is the magic and stillness that stands in the threshold of every moment...

Thanks so much for your time Natasha! I thought maybe doing what you said about making a snow scene and cloning out the cars, but using a photo as the "view" that shows each season and framing each one and grouping them in a quad then have a quote about season's at the bottom. I still plan on doing one where I do one big frame, but thought that the other idea would make a fun second page. What do you think? -Alison

I think that is a great idea, and I cannot wait to see the LO.

It is going to look fantastic.

Let me know how you think it turned out and if you think I need to fix anything. Did the second page first, kind of backwards tonight. Looking for a frame image to use for the larger version of the photo. Hopefully will get it done tomorrow. -Alison
