So cute Dani! I love how you clipped the white papers to the strips. The placement of the small photo is perfect. Love the stitch elements and the scatter. Love that cute banner

Great layout, and I do mean GREAT! AFAIC, it's perfect, and I'll explain why I think so. The background paper is lovely; it even has bling-bling! Fabulous white space very stylishly divided into four columns with hints of a grid pattern. [I love grids.] Stamped rings, stitched goodies, cute scatters, pretty flower cluster, darling banner, and a dragonfly. [I love dragonflies.] Super wordart [including a teeny brad bearing a magnificent statement], nice quote, and the date. Best of all is the charming photo of a sweet young girl sitting on lovely green grass by clear water. Your layout has everything and everything is placed exactly right on the page. It's the perfect capture of a very special moment in time. And that's why I think it's perfect.
