MDSM109 Best Year Yet

It's my turn to host this week's MDS Monday sketch.  I thought it would be fun to layout a mixture of photos and background papers or stamp images at a linear angle.  This is a great way to tell a pictorial story while breaking it up with patterns or solid spaces.  In the solid or pattern squares, you can add dates, details, or journaling. 

The layout was derived from a page on pinterest I just fell in love with, and I added a mish-mash of images I liked.  I think all my pages would be B&W with a textured neutral background, if I had my druthers.

Here's this week's sketch -
