A Layout with Beau Chateau DSP

This is a little lesson in getting the most out of your DSP.  For this layout, I used just 2 sheets of DSP from Beau Chateau and 1 sheet of Marina Mist CS.  I used Marina Mist and Crumb Cake seam binding, along with some crochet lace trim -- tied together.  I added a tiny touch of bling to the oval frames with our pearls.  My thinking on the DSP was that you could actually do your journaling on the lines of the DSP on the left hand page.  The little label on the right hand page can have a date or other pertinent info for the photos.  The stamping was done with the 'Daring Adventure' stamp set.
Other ideas:
I created this layout for my Hostess Scrapbook Club and plan to use it for my Heritage Album.  Others are using it for family photos and one scrapper plans to use it for her wedding photos.
Now picture this same layout with pink pirouette or marina mist CS on the scallop oval frames and you could have a gorgeous layout for a new baby. 
When you get to thinking, a DSP design can be more versatile than you'd first imagine it could be.



Here's a close-up of the stamping.
Tips:  When attaching the scallop ovals, just add a tiny touch of adhesive to the top of each one and leave the rest unattached until you get your photos inside the frames.
Save the ovals from the centers of the scallop ovals you cut on the Big Shot.  Use them to draw around your photos.
