However, I've been staring at it on and off since September. I'd got it into my head that a certain piece of embossed Co'ordinations cardstock was a perfect match, but I just couldn't get going with it.
So, at the weekend I decided to try somthing different. A white background and to introduce some kraft in with the blue. I layered all the scraps I could find, including the original embossed CS and a ledger tabbed file I made for my Counterfeit Kit (so happy to be using those embellishments I made), inked them all and stuck them down. The EK Success heart rub-ons have been in my stash for yonks. I think they 'pink it up' just enough to make my daughter the focus of this layout, even though she is pictured with her big brother.
It's not my favourite layout, but I'm happy to have got the story down on paper.

Great job getting it scrapped! Love the pocket and the colors!
You done a great job on your layout.
I know what you mean. When that happens to me I just try and remember that it's the story I want to tell first and then things seems to fall into place!
I have photos like this too. Should be easy, but never work out that way!! Great job!
Weird isn't it that some are hard for no reason - and I have to say that your kids are so cute :) - well done on getting the embellies used too!
Well, from the end result, I certainly can't tell you had difficulty with it.
