We sure love our pets at ATB. You can see photos of them in our layouts and projects as a constant. Here’s a recent layout I did for Kristen of her adorable pup. One of my favorite techniques for scrapbooking is mix-and-match collage. I like to coordinate embellishments and use lots of them, layering as I work. These fun elements create a loose frame and direct your eye to the photo.
