Now stick down your photo towards the top left hand corner.

Other Ideas

Instead of doing a page on your-self you can do a page on a woman who is special to you like you Mom, Sister etc Make a mini album of phenomenal women in your life & why. Or do a page on what makes you a unique woman.

Happy Woman's Day!
