Welcome to the Get It Scrapped creative team blog hop! Each member of the team has chosen one of their favorite articles from the Get It Scrapped site and created a layout inspired by that article.
I'm a big fan of multi-photo layouts and blocked designs, but I also like having pages that are a little different so everything isn't just the same arrangement or style (no one wants boring scrapbook pages, right?) That's why I chose this article as my inspiration:
6 Ways to Keep a Blocked Scrapbook Page Design Fresh
It's amazing how just some slight variations in photo placement or size can make such a big impact on the look of the finished page. Add to that the possibilities of substituting journaling, patterned paper or embellishments or one or more photos and the variations are almost unlimited.
Here's my page incorporating some of the techniques from the article:

I'm looking forward to getting to know you this year Brenda
Great age Brenda and I looking forward to another great year with you on the team :)
Nice page! I love the colors and the embellishments.
Oh wow, I love your take on this. I'm usually all about symmetry, but I like how the uneven blocks on your page still come together into a cohesive design :D
sweet! this design is perfect for the photos here. thanks so much for your work this last year -- and for continuing on!
lovely page and I may scraplift this design ;)
What a great cart for the kids to ride in! Nice clean design - it works! Looking forward to the year ahead...
I am looking forward to working with you again. I love looking at your layouts.
I love the different orientations of the photos and the way used the washi tape to break out of the block. Glad we get to create together this year!

I love how you've broken borders with the elements and your main block with photos. Great layout! I'm looking forward to being on the team with you this year.
So sweet page. I am looking forward to spending the next year on the creative team with you! :-)
Delighted to be serving with you for this coming year, love the layout and the edging of dark pink. I adore blocked designs and should use more of them.
This is a very sweet page Brenda. I love the design of your layout and the photos are too cute. Loving the washi tape too.
There's always comfort in a good blocked layout, isn't there - always leaves me with a satisfied solid feeling about the page. I'm looking forward to being on the team with you this year.
