Since I wasn't happy with the colors that I picked for my last scrapbook page, I decided to go back to basics and use a DSP to help me with my color choices. Plus, I told my dear husband that I wouldn't buy anymore DSP until I had used up some of what I already had. The next day I got the holiday mini and fell in love with the new specialty papers. I stayed true to my word though and I didn't buy any. I'm planning to make several more pages like this one for wedding reception pictures and hopefully get through the pack of Sweet Always that's just been hanging around for 4 years :)
Also, you can't tell in the picture but when I cut the letters out with the big shot, I used some leftover chocolate chip card stock that had been embossed with the lattice square embossing folder. The letters look really cool with the pattern against the striped paper. I was afraid that it would be a little too much with all that was going on with the page but it really helps the letters stand up against all the patterns.
