I used Maggie Lamarre's Botanical Garden kit to try out a tutorial that I found for making overlays. So the overlay is made using one of the background papers. Thanks for looking!

Yep...we've all been there :) But you'll do great! Beautiful layout.

This is such clever photo placement...I love this!

Beautiful!!!

Great layout...it's a wonderful photo (it just oozes 'teenager'-in a good way :)) and it is really honest. These are things I love in a layout!

So so beautiful! I love the simple elegance of the photo and layout!
