Newsflash!
Sometimes, you don't need a fancy layout. Or any layout at all! For this page, I wanted to showcase some postcards that my sister had sent in 2010. She made a New Year's Resolution to send handwritten notes more often, so she sent postcards each month. I saved some of my favorites (including the one featuring her new dog, Olive!), but I realized that they took up an entire 12x12 page.
So I chose a striped paper background that just happened to have similar colors to a couple of the postcards (it's red and yellow, in case you don't see it right away). I didn't need to journal because my sister had explained her New Year's Resolution in the first postcard, which is on the top left of the page. I just slapped them on the background paper and moved on.
Give yourself permission to do this every once in a while! It's quite satisfying!
