Bruges Church of Our Lady


This is a very straight-forward layout.  I sketched out a layout to accommodate the pictures, title, and journaling, then printed those pieces up accordingly.  As you can see, I decided to round the corners of the photos. I discovered this is quite easy to do in Microsoft Word - using the Crop feature - choosing "Crop to Shape" and then picking the rectangle with rounded corners.  You apparently can't change the radius of the rounded corner, but it was nice to be able to do it at least.  And even better, my blue corner rounder punch worked great for these corners - except for the largest photos!

As you can see, I used a special hand-made paper for the background - one I got many years ago from Costco.  I also used a piece of cardstock (with corners rounded) to form a mat for the small photos & journaling.  I used some gold border stickers to form a border around the mat.
