kitbop , I will take a closer look at your two pager in the Gallery.
hop2 , your planner scrapping amazes me. I would totally do this if I thought mine would come out anywhere near to yours. Each double page looks like a well designed magazine spread.

grammadee - fabulous outdoor winter layouts! wood! feathers! sketches! love in the gallery I finished another one today in the crops, using yesterdays sketch. I had created this mixed media background earlier this week and set it aside, and thought it filled the "circle" roll in the sketch. (BTW, sketch is backwards, circle on left instead of right). And I actually used my Tim Holtz crazy cats stamp/die set layout pip nip by kirstendrew, on Flickr

I had 12 of these pink patterned paper backgrounds ready for... something. Went with a big die cut fall floral, and a sentiment that fit in the awkward space I had left. Kept these really simple so I could get them done for my donation box. The wolf pack card was some leftover bits I found while trying to use something completely different that didn't work.

950nancy, I love the colors in your papers. The designs are perfect for photos in an airport or airplane. I think that means you need another trip. That is a great design to use so many different patterns together. Beautiful. ~ I love all the bright summery colors on you St. Kitts page. Wonderful photos all in a row. BTW, those little monkeys are so cute! Beautifully embellished pages. hop2, I am so intrigued with your weekly memory planning. What a wonderful way to capture the everyday things as well as the milestone. Great job. grammadee, kitbop, AussieMeg, and angel97701, I left love in the gallery on your beautiful work. Here are the 2 pages I finished at the Online Crop yesterday. I'll post the cards I finished when it's light outside. Great Moments in History

joblackford, I love that stamp you have used on the gingham. You may think they are simple, but they are beautiful. I love the wolf and the constellations. So nice for a masculine hello card. You do classy work!

On a roll. I finished this layout this afternoon. Two and a half more layouts to finish the album! The picture on the right makes me laugh. We were in St. Kitts and I was shopping in a little store while these five people decided to go find the rum punch at the outdoor bar near the cruise ship. I swear I was not in that shop very long, but by the time I got to the bar, they were all very happy. I had half of one drink and I could see why they were all so loud and giddy. Loved it. I found a layout online for the right side to copy(ish). Pink flowers are generally not my jam.

It will probably look fancy to them even though it was easy for me I does look fancy though. I know it was somewhat simple and I LOVE that. Easy for us, impressive for them. PERFECT zingermack , I am so impressed with your home made stamps. I don't have the patience or attention to detail to do my own. But I love yours Thanks so much. It's really SUPER EASY now that I've figured it out. I've done 4 sets so far and each one gets better as I perfect the technique w/the silhouette. No stopping me now Y'all are so talented. I LOVE seeing what you're working on. Thank you so much for sharing. Here's a card from me.

Love that puppy card, @zingermack . That pup is perfect. Looks like he's already been on a birthday party, though. Did you make that background paper? Looks embossed and inked... Here is my two pager for today, with school pic's of a couple of dgs's, that we received as Christmas gifts. No journaling, b/c I want to talk to them and ask them what their favourite things about school are.

R-3 two photos scrapped for Donna challenge (2), P-1 linen texture cs (2), P-3 five thicker pkg on first page and six on the second (11), P-4 LYB used on both pages (6), P-5 glitter sticker (1), P-6 one PL card (1), S/I-1 a star on each (2), S/I-3 one circle vb sticker and one punched cs sticker (2), S/I-4 five triangles each page (10), C/M-1 a bit of green on each page (2), C-M-5 Rainbow of triangles (10), T-2 one diecut circle (1), T-5 inked edges (2), N/S-3 Seven patterns (7).

Looks embossed and inked.. I did. It's the little folder that came w/the stamp/die set from TH. So I inked it before embossing to make it look like the pup's been up to a pre-birthday party. I LOVE your triangles AussieMeg & grammadee. They're so different from each other but both so cool and modern-looking. I have to think triangles more!

I am getting close to the bottom of my container of unfinished kids card elements... Today I worked through some digital stamp images that I had colored a long time ago. These are for the Cards for Cubs foster kids card drive. I used some paper scraps for a couple of them, stamped a sentiment repeatedly with oxide ink for a couple more, and swiped oxide ink direct to paper for the rest. Boy cards are hard! March share by jo.blackford, on Flickr March share by jo.blackford, on Flickr I stamped these wish sentiments on some scraps I had die cut last week, and then found some leftovers to put them on - 3 Shimelle/AC boxed cards, and a unicorn paper that I had leftover for a couple of years - I couldn't figure out how to fit it on an A2 card but it worked on a slimline card.

Love for you on Flickr, joyfulnana and joblackford . Here is today's LO. Had fun playing with a couple of new collections/kits.

This page of sharing is *rockin*! hop2 - love the puppy pics and the gorgeous teal/paw print papers show them off beautifully. @zingermack - that is my favourite TH dog stamp, and I love the texture in the background and the upside down food bowl! Here's another from me. Started with one of the Saturday Sketches - makes it so much easier. Used the "box explosion" (?) line by Recollections - I picked some up at 50% off, and when I started using it I realized it coordinated perfectly with Paige Evans' stuff, *then* I realized that it was the Paige Evans' line at Michaels... duh! I might go back and pick up a few more items. This page has: Amy Tan, Dear Lizzy, Shimelle, Vicky Boutin, Pebbles, and Paige Evans. I think I might have a small AC problem. layout the OG 3 friends by kirstendrew, on Flickr

I wasn't sure I would be able to make this paper work for cards given our current no-travel situation, but hopefully the seniors don't notice the "vacation" words in the background that I couldn't cover up, or don't mind. I used some little scraps of a different Doodlebug vacation themed paper as an accent - ideally I would've added a bolder postcard or mail motif but I think it's ok. Trying not to overthink things (but realizing now I could've just copied my design from the yellow postcard cards I made... doh.) March share by jo.blackford, on Flickr

I love all the inspiration in this thread! 950nancy, your LO is perfect for St. Kitts! That's what I am working on this coming weekend, St. Kitts and Nevis trip. Such fun pics, everyone looks like they are having a good time! grammadee , your pages are so vibrant, and I love how you used larger images like the wood cut! I'd love to know how you made those cross cut sections of logs! hop2 , your planner is so cool! What amazes me is how you use it like a scrapbook/planner/journal space. kitbop , your kitties are so sweet! I love the colors you used and how your layout is so focused. I am always tempeted to "fill up" space I left, and with how you created your LO, your eye is drawn right to the photos. Beautiful! joblackford , those are great cards, and I love that you are donating them. I have to share that I donated a bunch of christmas cards to the nursing home my DD works at, and she said she spent the whole day explaining who they were from to the residents. She said it made them really happy, so that always feels good! joyfulnana , LOVE the stars and tags, that makes for a super energetic LO, and you captured it perfectly! nylene , that banner and title is great! Very eyecatching! @zingermack , that puppy card is darling. The coloring and shading are fantastic! AussieMeg , wow, just wow! Love the triangles-the whole LO is really cool. I don't really have a page with photos, but I was watching Shimelle's video about starting 2021 with a title page, and that is something I've never done before. She had a 2021 cut file, and I thought I could make something similar on my Cricut. So here is my title page for 2021, inspired by Shimelle. I might still add a few things, but I really like how it turned out. I got caught up in the TM project life card buying about a year and a half ago (where did the time go???) so now even though I do not pocket scrap I am still using those cards. They really are fun to alter or do different things with.

Love how you used that bright vibrant sunburst pp, @kendramage , and covered it up and tamed it with the soothing white. Great cutfile you designed! I think seniors will love your cards, joblackford. Even if they can’t go anywhere right now, it’s fun to imagine others being able to, and remembering to write home. love on Flickr, kitbop.

I am working on a cruise album, but I bought some new paper, so that went out the door. This is really specific paper for travel, so I know I don't have pictures I can use yet. I don't often take photos in the airport. View AttachmentI really like this. Can I ask where you got the paper? It's "speaking" to me, begging to come to my house!

joblackford, do you mind sharing where those digital stamp images of the gamer boy might be found? I think I NEED something like that for my dgs's 18th bd card. Also trying to find an image I saw somewhere of a gamer guy wrapped up in cords on a couch. Wanted to go with the theme of the lockdown ending, leaving teen years behind, something...

We're expecting anywhere from 3 inches to 8 feet of snow today. . Seriously. Several days ago, all of the weather reports said to prepare for snow like we haven't seen in 100 years. So I went to Michaels, Hobby Lobby, my LSS and Scrapbook.com to prepare. As of two minutes ago, the grass is covered, but the streets are just wet. I might have over prepared. I did finish a double layout of a trip we took on a cruise in 2019. Only four more to go. I need to figure out how to load larger pictures without exceeding the limit of KBs. View AttachmentSuch a happy layout!

Also trying to find an image I saw somewhere of a gamer guy wrapped up in cords on a couch. Wanted to go with the theme of the lockdown ending, leaving teen years behind, something... Luckily I saved them under their official names and they showed up in a google search because I couldn't remember the name of the artist at all! I bought them "a couple of years ago" in 2015 where does the time go? It's taken more than 5 years to get them onto cards somehow... I can't wrap my head around that... I'm linking you to the teen section but there are lots of others that might be useful. www.mosdigitalpencil.com/categories/Kids/4-Teenz-Only/
