Quick Scrapbook Design Idea: Four Squares

I'm all over the place in my speed of scrapbooking. Some layouts will take many hours and some come together in minutes. I guess it depends on a few factors - my mood, the products I'm using, the techniques I put into it, and the design I choose.
The layout I'm sharing today is one of those that can come together in minutes and it's a design concept I use all the time, using four squares in the center.
Here's what I like about this design concept:
• It's simple with the ability to dress it up or down as little or as much as you want.
• You can go with smaller squares paired with lots of white space or with bigger embellishments. Think squares like 2" or 3".
• You can use larger squares like 4" or 5".
• There are many different photo/paper/card combinations you can do. Two photos with two papers, three photos with one paper, etc.
• This design can be easily adapted to a two-page layout by increasing the amount of squares.
With my layout I used two 3" card cutouts, one that says "love" and one that says "joy". Then I used one 3 x 3" photo in the top right and a 2-1/2" photo with a 3" mat in the bottom left.
I loved the design of the card cutouts and so I decided to mimic that with the design of my layout. I added a stitched border around the four squares and added some floral clusters in the corners.
If you are looking for an easy design I recommend you give this one a try!

It's a very strong concept that was created in 2003 link in order to enable clients to understand high frequency [watchmaking], says Romain Marietta, the Head of Product Development and Heritage Director at link Zenith, whose tenure at the company dates to the Nataf era. "We had to rework the movement to skeletonize around the escapement position, link to enable people to see inside the movement, to see the heartbeat – to help people understand high frequency."
For some context, I saw these Trésor models as part of a pretty intense three day program put on by Swatch Group in Switzerland as an alternative to Baselworld. I saw link a lot of watches in a short period of time, which is a sure fire recipe for what I link like to call “product blur” – at a certain point, everything starts to link blend together.
