Sometimes your title can make or break your page. This layout demonstrates a creative way to make an impression with your title every time. 

To recreate this layout you will need brown textured cardstock, leaf green cardstock, light brown cardstock, Creative Imaginations Purple Woodgrain paper, K & Company Script & Seals paper, tan vellum, brown ink, a brown pen and Pebbles Inc Family Tree stickers. 

Use the textured brown cardstock as your background. Cut a strip of Purple Woodgrain paper about 15cm wide and adhere down the left-hand side of your page leaving a gap of about 2.5cm. Now cut a piece of leaf green cardstock measuring approximately 16.5cm by 24.5cm. Adhere on the right side of you page, as shown above. Make sure you leave a gap of about 1.5cm down the right side of your page. You have now completed your background.

Mat both your photos with light brown cardstock and ink the edges. I have made the border around the larger photo slightly larger than the border for the other photo to give it more emphasis. It is up to your discretion whether or not you also wish to do this. 

Adhere your smaller photo to the top left of your page, as shown in the layout. It should primarily be on the Purple Woodgrain paper, but also overlap onto the leaf green cardstock.

Adhere your larger photo to the bottom right of the page, as shown in the layout. Position it primarily on the leaf green cardstock, but allow it to overhang onto your textured brown background a little. Make sure you also leave plenty of room below it for a page accent. Your page now has a sense of balance.  

It is now time to make your title. To create your title you may wish to use an alphabet template or your computer. Select a font and transfer the outline of each letter to your K & Company Script & Seals paper. Cut out each letter carefully and ink the edges. Make sure you also ink the inside edges like the middle of the letter 'a'. 

Use the same technique to cut out two hearts, one smaller than the other, and ink the edges. 

Position your letters so that the first overlaps your small photo. Continue your title to the left across your page. To add interest, do not use a perfectly straight line. Instead, elevate some letters higher than others. Also place your small heart behind one letter for a unique effect. 

Use the large tag sticker for your journaling block. Trim the top off to make it rectangular. Use your brown pen to journal on tan vellum. Make sure you leave space at the bottom to overlap your other heart. Once the ink is dry, adhere the vellum to the sticker and position your sticker on your page, centring it in the remaining purple space, as shown in the layout. Once in place, adhere your remaining heart so that it overlaps your journaling block, your purple woodgrain paper and the brown background.

Finally, it is time to add your final accents. Position two of your square leaf stickers in the top right-hand corner of your page so they overlap both your green cardstock and brown cardstock background. These provide a balance for your journaling block.

The strip at the bottom right of the page was cut from one of your Pebbles Inc Family Tree stickers. Trim the brown stripes away and cut the remaining green strip to size. Adhere in place with the brown button on the left.
