Wish List - Part 1 - Flying Dreams Quickpages: The Artist's Way

Flying Dreams Quickpages: The Artist's Way (Quickpages with changeable backgrounds)

Be sure to check out the close up samples at the store.

Lorie Davison's quickpages are high on my list. If you want a whimsical, well-composed page, but lack the time or inclination to figure out a design or coordinate papers with elements, then this is the solution for you.

The pages all coordinate together and would be great for those photos of your little princes and princesses in your life. These would look absolutely amazing in a bound Shutterfly book and would be a fabulous present for a grandparent or a favorite aunt/uncle in your child's life.

I have enclosed a sample page I made so you can see it upclose. But guess what? If you like my page, but wished you could use a different bg. ppr. - you can!!! All the elements have been merged together so that all you have to do is place your photo and background paper, add a title and journaling and you are done! Easy peasy, right?
