Halloween layout by Amber Packer

Todays Halloween layout comes from Amber Packer:

One technique I used on this layout, is that  I allowed myself to change my mind.  I originally designed this layout for a different photo.  It’s a cool photo and I still need to take the time to scrap it before I forget about it.  Even though I designed the layout for that photo, the layout wasn’t right for the photo. 

My tip for you today:  Trust instincts.  Allow yourself the freedom to change your mind even if you’re almost done with your project. 

"The only one telling you “you can't do it” is you.  And you don't have to listen.”   ~ unknown

Most of all … ENJOY!
