I think I need to carve out some time to watch some Cheryl videos. Her pages are amazing - which is why her templates are so loved and awesome. That's a great idea to learn how to cluster better!!! And I have to say ... while I love your AJ style pages so much ... you always impress me with your photo pages! So I'm shocked to hear you say you don't think you can scrap w/a photo. I've seen so many photo pages from you lately - especially those treasures of days past ... and I am always in love with them! But maybe it's just that it is harder for you to do/takes longer/not your usual comfort zone? Anyway I think they are beautiful pages!
Well...I ALWAYS need a doily on my page...hybrid OR digital!!! LOL Seriously...look at my pages...there are very few that don't have one! My friends tease me all the time. They buy the ugliest doiles they can find and dare me to use them at crops!
