Thanks everybody, for the amazing compliments!
Makes me feel great when I get to inspire other people with my layouts!
Amy, tips for letting your pages flow together, ehm...
Well, I alway work with a list.
Before I start with my book, I alway make a list of the pages I'd like to make. For example, for this book:
Quote:
01 - Traveling to the airport
02 - Pictures taken at the airport
03 - Pictures taken at the airport/ boarding
04 - The flight
05 - The flight
06 - Arrived at Orlando Int. Airport
07 - Arrived & Disney's Magical Express
etc...

This way I know how many pages I'm gonna need for my book and I can decide what colors to use for my layouts. Even when I have different subjects in the layouts that will be next to each other, I can decide what color I can use that fits both subjects.
A list like that can come in handy too when I work in a certain order, but I don't have inspiration for the next layout. I just pick another subject from the list and create a different layout!
I (almost) always use the same background papers to create two-pagers.
And when I want two existing pages (PSD-files) to flow a bit more, I create a new document, 7200 pixels width and 3600 pixels height, add the two pages to it and add some background elements, like ribbons, paper strips, strings, pixie dust, etc. At least that's how I've created some two-pagers before...
I hope this can help you out a little bit...?
