What a lovely picture and page!!

Thank you so much for taking part in the challenge, chai.
I love your first layout and your lift today is just wonderful. Yor family photo is a treasure and so perfectly highlighted with your design. Great use of the texture and the themed elements.

The glimmer you added to your new layout really adds to the sense of celebration, but I really like the simplicity of your older layout too!

What a great page for the challenge. The black and white photo is the perfect take for this page...and the gold balloon, along with the clock underneath. Really a stunning layout!

Great photo! Love the background!
