Default first attempt...

having no clue what I was doing, I just messed around a bit. So much fun! I'm not sure how to say from Photoshop Elements as a PDF, or lo res file. I tried this, but am not sure it's the most efficient. Jpeg attached. I think I'll change the "lunch" and "learning" labels, but not sure what I'll do instead. First stab, anyway!
Fun!!! So much to learn!!!

Oh, my goodness! This is your first layout?? It is wonderful. I love the cutting lines and the journaling about following your boy overlayed over him walking away; it's perfect!

Great first page - love the journaling over the photo - the best thing about digital is that it is SO easy to change. I usually let a layout sit on my computer a day or two. When I go back to it, I sometimes find something I want to change. If I don't, then I know I'm happy with it & call it done! Welcome to DD - you'll love this place - look forward to seeing more of your work!
