Less is sometimes More

As in the little black dress sometimes a page is created
with just the pearls as an accent.
I started this page and was way over thinking it. I had
lots of stuff going on.
I wanted to use the background paper just as it is because it 
makes the photo pop.
Or the photo makes the paper pop.
Either way its a win.
Since I used part of the paper I whacked it down to 8.5x11.
Then I started packing on the stuff.
And it made me crazy.
I let it sit for a day and then approached it once again
with a different attitude.
I swished everything off and put most of it away and began again.
In wanting mostly the photo to shine and then the paper
because the sayings on it worked perfect with the photo.
I decided to keep the embellishments to a minimum
and I love it so much better.
K& Company which is probably older than I think 
with some old Basic Grey paper and new negative slide,
 prima, Creative Imaginations and Authentique.
With some new Studio Calico and twine.
