A Good Layout

As I scrapped this afternoon (in between cuddling my two boys, who are in a more cuddly mood having come down with sudden colds), I pondered this question: What makes a good layout?

I think, as a general rule, I'd answer that it's the composition. I love seeing layouts that have photos arranged well, with elements delicately placed.

Yeah, I'm always underestimating the power of some fantastic pictures.

And so it is in this layout: it's simply my good-looking brother that makes the layout so nice to look at! I didn't feel like I needed a whole lot of elements (count 'em -- I used only sixteen layers this layout -- which is, like, a new record low for me). The photos shine on their own.
