Agata *Day 2*

Welcome to day 2 of inspiration with Agata. Now, not only is Agata an accomplished cardmaker, but her scrapbook pages are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Check out this one: Isn't this just striking? I love the simplicity and how the focus is on those SUPER cute photos!! The color blocking is fantastic! And by placing the color squares and photos on kraft, they really come to life! Finally, the small butterflies are perfectly placed and make a fantastic embellishment!
Here is my take:
