The foundation page was nice, but today I thought I'd share with you how a few added touches can really bring your layout up a notch (or two, or three).
Adding texture and dimension to your pages always helps add visual interest. I like to create different vignettes within the page in order to attract your eye and draw you attention to key elements on the page.
In the image below, the "Merry Christmas" text and pleated ribbon draw the eye into the center of the page where the date of the photo is featured.
Look for this project in the Cricut Holiday Ideas Book.
This project will return in November 2012.

The cluster of embellishments on the lower left corner help ground the photo and connect the page title "Merry Christmas" to the photo.
And last, but not least, the white snowflake border strip helps connect the left and right sides of the page.
