How I Made My Layout Go from Drab to Fab



I started playing with the Boardwalk kit earlier this week and started this layout,
but it just didn't feel "finished" to me, so I set it aside for a few days. It just didn't feel like me. 


I pulled it out again and began tweaking it, and adding all those 
special touches that make a layout me. 

I added a flower to make a bigger "design triangle:"


I distressed all the edges with my scissors:


And I added some doodling and crumpled the little paper flower: 


I also added a paper strip and a piece of ribbon to ground the bottom of the layout: 


I love how a few simple touches make a layout look a little more polished and put together.
