♥ ~ my work space right now ~ ♥

I've seen several scrapbook layouts lately with "white space" - meaning a lot of space on the page intentionally left blank. I've never really done layouts like this, but I'm sure getting some practice working on my niece Krissy's wedding guest book! This book will be more about the written messages from wedding guests than it is about the pictures and embellishments so I'm [forcing myself to] keeping it simple.
I'm disappointed in these pictures - poor light today with all the rain in Arizona. The butterflies and photo mats are navy blue cardstock with a slight bit of sparkle in it (leftover paper that Krissy used in her wedding invitations).
So far, I'm very happy with the way the book is turning out... should be finished by this weekend..
Krissy ♥'s Jamie.

I absolutely love this book. So excited for Krissy to see it! :)
I'm a little bit scared of white space but when I look at it on these pages, it just looks clean and fresh and perfect. I normally feel the urge to fill in gaps, but I'm going to restrain myself from now on.
Wow Deb!! It looks great! I like the "white space" very classy and smart looking. Can't wait to see the finished project!
It is beautiful - so clean and elegant! What a gorgeous memento she will have of her wedding!

Looks beautiful!! Is that the Martha Stewart butterfly punch?
Thanks, everyone! :o)
And yes, Sharyn, the punch is Martha's.
Wow! This is going to be such a fabulous book! It's not just one of those normal, run-of-the-mill wedding books, that looks like all the others... it's absolutely unique!
That is the great thing about handmade books (and other items). You can make it however you want.
It is lovely, Deb. They will be so pleased!
Final a page I could do! It is stunning--I think that may be the only description left! All the comments are spot on, Sweetie! Great job! xo
I meant "finally"!
I love the format for the guest book! I've never seen anything like it. I'm sure she'll love it too
