doesn't have to be scary. And using a 5x7 was an after thought on this page.
I decided to break out my MME 6x6 pad and circle scissors. Before I played with the circle scissors I used some gold paint and a background stamp just because I could.
Then I made some circles.
As I was playing around I also used the negative space of the circles from the 6x6 sheet which looked ok.
It looked okay until you tried to put a photo on top and then it had this dorky quality. Because of the way the papers were layered, a smaller photo made all those edges stand out. Which made me crazy.
Short trip.
So while I was digging about in the wayback box I found a 5x7 post card that when I threw it top of the paper - it worked. Like shazam worked.
Therefore a trip to my oversized pictures wayback box (say that 3x's fast) and found this gem.
My great grandparents. I think this is their 50th anniversary photo and if it is they look mighty fine for 67 and 69 years of age. Or the photographer was a photoshop genius back in the day. I did know grandmom and enjoyed her company but grandpop passed when I was 2. Therefore, if this is their 50th, he only lived 2 more years after.
Of course I was stumped for a title until my pal April - who can whip out a title in 2 seconds, said to keep it simple; Great grands. And it was totally the way to go.

Love you to the stars and back
First off, how can you not love this photo.
Upon further inspection it looks like Ms Amelia
is dressed for warmth.
Check out those sandaled feet.
Totally cracks me up.
I loved this paper the moment I saw in my SC kit.
And it was quite overwhelming.
The colors are perfect. I love that they aren't pastel
or fru-fru....Sort of fall but not quite.
I found some vellum way back in the stash and it was perfect.
How often does that happen.
I picked up a pack of Dear Lizzy labels & tags and
wouldn't you know they were perfect too.
The jillybean soup buttons finally got used.
Had them forever.
They are sewed with twine directly to the page.
The rest just worked amazingly well together.
