The first layout is about 3 and a half years ago. I think the big difference for me is what supplies were available then versus now, thank God for K and Company, Basic Grey, etc!!! I usually scrap 12 x 12 now, but am working on a book of remembrance in 8 and a half by 11, the second layout is from that. The first layout, stickers and purchased die cuts, primary type paper. Second layout, paper I hand colored, cool shell brads, vellum put through my printer.
