Hey friends! Today I'm sharing a layout that is unusual for me in that the background is 1) red 2) red 3) red. I like the color red but find it difficult to scrapbook with unless it's in very tiny doses. I wanted to try something new plus see what my fave Shimmerz products looked like on top of this flashy color. I used several May Kits from Gossamer Blue for this layout.
I realize there is a lot going on with this page. The red made me do it.

I did a lot of fussy cutting to get the elements I wanted on this page, mainly cutting down Simple Stories papers; I used to despise fussy cutting but I've come to love the look I get on my pages.
I think I would love this page if the background were white or a lighter color, small, patterned paper. I love the photo frames and all the elements, but man, that red background is throwing me off. Maybe I'll take a break from looking at this layout and come back to it and realize it's a winner. Or maybe I'll feel the same. Regardless, it's another memory in the book and I'm happy about that.
