trying to get back into the scrapping mood before the crop - DH bought me a 25pk of this paper at TM - it is really pretty but 25 sheets is a lot of one design

Beautiful layouts & cards, everyone! TFS. 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! Not the OP, but the papers are from the Fancy Pants - Just Plane Fun collection (link to SB.com). Note I recently saw a bundle with (6) sheets of double-sided paper & (3) embellishment packs from this collection for $6.99 at Tuesday Morning, if available in your area. HTH.

I used a PL-type card for both the title and those side strips of brown Echo Park stickers - not sure about the PL-type card - terrible photo of the layout - it's grey and dreary here today - the background paper is white

DH bought me a 25pk of this paper at TM - it is really pretty but 25 sheets is a lot of one design Oh boy, yes it is! It is pretty, but even for cardmaking that's a lot of one paper to use up. I had trouble with 10 sheets I bought from Spellbinders. What I ended up doing was trading with a Pea who also bought a lot of one paper and was into cardmaking. We chopped up several sheets into A2 sized pieces and mailed each other an envelope full so we wouldn't get utterly sick of working with the same paper. I'm sure you'd find cardmakers willing to do a trade with you. Or maybe you're going to have a lot of Sheetloads of cards in your future? >.<

I cleared out my little kids card project box completely, adding scrap strips inside cards I had already made, and then working on a few more random cards for my donation boxes. My Cards for Cubs foster care card drive box is going out today with 113 cards inside I'm so excited to be finished something! (so I can start on the next something...)

Linda I spy some Heidi Swapp Wolf Pack supplies on your woodsy pages. I love that line, the colors are so perfect with photos out in the forest (any forest, it seems! I think of it being very PNW, but you're about as far from us as you can get and it still works perfectly) and it coordinates well with other supplies too. I like the blessed are the curious/adventures card It's turned dull and grey here today too, after lots of rare spring sunshine.

linda, love the wolf pack..boy am I glad I ordered that when I did! Here are some stamped sailboats that I am going to use on my pages this weekend. I stamped on patterned paper, to give them a little more "something" lol. I also think I might ink the edges.

@kendramage - love the sailboats! joblackford - I'll probably use some of the paper for postcards for the nursing home - I probably need to do another batch soon. I love those cheery donation cards you made! And yes, HS Wolf Pack is perfect for forests everywhere it seems. After a grand hunt for my newish, still in package QK die, I finally found it and used it on this page. This one started out with an entirely different colour scheme but I ended up using EP Celebrate Spring for it instead with a couple of Park Lane washi flakes. This one is so minimal that it barely counts as a layout used up a bunch of scraps on this one - the photos weren't great quality but they captured the kitties being themselves. last one for the night

950nancy , your St. Kitts page is so pretty with all the roses cascading down. I love the use of the tags and the beach embellishments. @zingermack , I love your dog birthday card. Those TH stamps are so cute. I love the distressed background. grammadee , AussieMeg . joyfulnana , joblackford , there is love in the gallery. @kendramage , I love your first page of 2021. Those large numbers are really cool. That stack of books on your Story of Today is nice. Did you sketch that? You do good work. ~Those sailboats are beautiful. I love that you stamped them on patterned paper. I need to remember that little trick! Linda , your nature photos are very nice. I love the little frog you added. Your barnwood paper is a perfect fit for your home photos. I love that water pump just like my grandpa used to have. I love the photo of you and your family. I smiled at your comment of using 25 sheets of the same paper. The warehouse here sells 25 or 50 for $1.00 sometimes and I just can’t resist. But that is lots of paper! ~ Your archery photos are great and that QK target and arrows couldn’t be more perfect. ~You may think your pages are simple, but they are beautiful, artistic and they tell the story. It doesn’t get better than that.~ LOL, pie the principal. Every child wishes to do that! I love it. The first page here is for the Saturday Sketch 3/13. Peace -Christmas 2018 R

Absolutely no, I did not sketch those. I am not (ahem) crafty in that way, at all. It is the February Sentiment Kit from Unity stamps, was part of my birthday prezzie! I LOVE this stamp set. grammadee and justjac I was going to share with you too, as someone (forgot who!) was talking about the new Hero Arts book set, and I think the Unity one is amazing too. If your a "book person" this is a great stamp set. www.unitystampco.com/not-the-end-of-your-story-february-2021-sentiment-kit/I see it isn't on sale anymore, boo! But they have sales so often, so maybe it will be soon.

Great work with that kit, craftymom101! I love all the bits and pieces of this kit and you have used them to perfection! Linda, you are on FIRE! Love seeing all your pages again. Great glimpses into your life, and on each the colour choices and little extras show great attention to detail and to design. Can't wait to see your boats on pages, @kendramage. Love on Flickr for nylene and joblackford.

First night of the crop, first page. A compilation of our youngest cat and how he's *always* around. Old Amy Tan pp, embellies/alphas from my colour drawers so some are probably 20 years old! And tim holtz cat stamps. LAYOUT I'll be watching you by kirstendrew, on Flickr

Taking some time to share a few things I finished in the last week!
All ancient patterned paper! Thickers that needed more glue, but still warp. Maybe they will flatten once in the album?
Started last weekend in the virtual crop where I asked if these three ancient papers went together, consensus said yes.
Then I wanted to use up the scraps and used the 6" x 6" pad Sheetload sketch to make these, got one extra from my scraps!
On a mission to use up single sheets of coordinating patterned paper, all ancient too!
One completed this weekend during online crops:
Want to finish DS21's senior year wrestling album. Just a few more to go!

You probably won't get a better chance to win anyplace! People have been scrapping like crazy this weekend. And there are quite a few pages that would fit with the Simple joys theme. I know joyfulnana even has a page with that as a title!
Anyone who has scrapped about Simple Joys this month, please post in the Donna Thread, and tag myboysnme for a chance to win.

Christmas 2019 - very strange year. One grand-daughter was in India and DH was so very sick he didn't even go. We now think he likely had COVID.

So much has been going on around here, that I am way behind in comments, both here and on the Crop thread. Hope to get to that later today. Yesterday I got to print some photos, and I picked up my CM kit in town. Great juxtaposition of St Patrick's Day photo my ddil sent me and the greens in that collection that were on top of my desk this morning. So here is my page: 2 Lucky Boys by Gramma Dee, on Flickr
