You will notice on these pages that is exactly what I did. I used the same 3 papers for my main papers. I just used them in different ways on each page.
My preference is also toward more simple pages. I think not only are they easier and faster to complete (and I am all about completing!!) but they show off the pictures more. For me the pictures are the point of the scrapbooking, the paper and embellishments are there to enhance and they are the fun in putting things together.
What I used:
Decorative Click and Fill 12×12 pages (all 3 pages)
Page 1
I started with the Decorative Click and Fill page. I modified it by adding an additional picture as well as removing the ‘punched flowers’ from the page.

Flower Lg Black
Flower XLg Red
Flower Lg Striped
Gem White
Enchanted Alpha Set – with block surface applied maxed on magnification and contrast
Page 2
I started this page with Decorative Click and Fill page. I modified it heavily. You can see how I removed the large circle as well as the flowers. I also changed the round picture to a square picture. I wanted simplicity so the great pictures of my daughter would be the main star of the page.

Enchanted Paper 6
Enchanted Paper 26 (mat for photos)
Ribbon Teal – I changed the color to brown to match the photos
Smile Embellishment – changed background color to brown to match photos. I had to separate the Smile elements from the background, then change the background color.
Page 3
I started with the Decorative Click and Fill page. I modified it by removing all text, the circles as well as replacing the flower border with ribbons from the Enchanted Power Palette.
