    Beautiful layout. I am in the process of catching up with my albums. Most difficult thing is choosing papers, colors and embellishments, don't you think?
    Cannot wait to see tutorials on the Silhouette - especially since I spent way too much time extracting letters from the Cricut mat that still don't look great. Grrr.
