Older Photos - New Layouts

So, I've had these photos for a while. I think 2 years now. I just didn't know how to put them in a layout. Then I saw the papers in my Basic Grey Kit and I knew it was a perfect match. I used their sketch for a start but then went in my own direction. I was so hesitant to put that bottom picture of Marisa on the layout but I just had to. It showcases her "personality" so well. Hopefully you can read the journaling. It says it all.
So I've had these sticker letters for over a year now just stting in my stash wondering when or how I would ever use them. I was about to give them to Marisa when I saw an idea in my CK magazine using letters. They used them as a background. I did the same and thought how perfect it worked out to create my clever title. I took a shortcut by handwriting the title and I'm not sure I love that part, but I'm not going to change it because it's done. I love how it all turned out and that I used up every single sticker which you know rarely ever happens.
