grammadee that is pretty much how DD dresses every day! She loves to dress up. 😊 She reminds me of my grandma. Always dressed up, in her pearls.

nylene great use of colors and scraps! I’ve been digging into my scrap files more lately, trying to use up some of them but I’ve got a big pile. Linda great job using up some old stickers. I’ve been finding some old treasures in my stash lately and it’s been fun to revisit some old supplies.

2 pg version of this week’s sketch. All the papers are from my scrap bin except the background card stock and the striped paper. The Easter egg stamp set is old CTMH and the enamel stars I bought at a garage sale this summer. It’s been fun mixing up old supplies. Now that I’m all caught up on the AD sketch class I need to switch over to half and half!

joblackford - Those Converse tennis shoes you made were SO AWESOME! Love all the beautiful variety of cards you make, too. Great job! @sunnycamom - Great job on your layouts. The Covid page really told our story. Also, I hope you have fun with your butterflies, too. linda - I like seeing your layouts about your family and life. The kitten is so cute! MARIBETHR- I love your doll stamp cards. I got a new doll stamp I hope to use soon.

I posted 2 layouts yesterday and today I couldn't find them on this thread. Duh, I posted them on Pokey Peas. Some days I think I'm losing it! I thought I was posting here. Strolling With George (NG tube not edited out) Adventures (great editing job by photographer on these photos.)

kellyr21, you have love in the gallery and on your video. Thanks for sharing yourself and your art with us. Linda, I love the way all your military pages seem to fit together so well. The colors and the designs will look great side by side in his album. The letters on NAVY are really cool. Perfect fit. The snowy night page looks cold and snowy with the patterned paper and the snowflakes against the dark background.~ Your son must have a green thumb to toss a plant in the compost and come back to a beautiful plant. He’s a keeper!~I love that you were able to use an old kitty brad and some older stickers on your kitty page. Doesn’t it feel good to be so thrifty?~I love that bright colored paper you used on the garden page. What a handy young man to do the gardening and bush trimming. Pretty page. The gloves and shears are perfect in the circle. schroema, thanks for the info. on the 50's cars paper. I went to JoAnn’s this week and couldn’t stop myself from picking up a 6x6 pad. Not sure what I will do with it, but it’s so nostalgic! You did a great job on your banners on the Easter page. I love the colors you chose that pick up the same colors in your photos. That’s a great touch. Great job on the fancy egg embellishments. Very nicely done! @sunnycamom, did you do that background page with inks or was it already printed. I love, love, love it. I wish I dared try something like that! It’s the perfect backdrop for your page. You make beautiful clusters. I never know how to use my enamel dots. I’d like to take lessons from you!

nylene it came like that! I was like that is already distressed and splattered. U thought of adding an additional color with my delusion spray inks but held back. I have been learning to use enamel dots/shapes by looking at how others use them. I feel more confident now when I place them on my pages. I try to keep them at 3 or 5.

@sunnycamom you LO are not showing up for me so I’ll check them later. My phone is being silly! kellyr21 that’s gorgeous with the bright colors against the dark background MARIBETHR those figures are cute! nylene are those senior photos? I appreciate that you have a few with her medical equipment. DD has an insulin pump and it’s just a part of her. Linda is the covid print paper your own creation or did you find it somewhere? I’m laughing that it includes “covidiot” 😂

I love that word - I made a whole page about covidiots. You're welcome to snag a copy schroema: I have it shared in my google drive. Glad it was useful to you Linda love your pages.

refugeepea , I really like your planner. Are those stamps that you have colored and cut out for the headings. I love those cute little children on June. Do you do your whole year like this? You even record the temperatures! Wow, I am impressed. I wish I could look back on years when my children were young. Keep this up! I'm very inconsistent, which is why I use an undated planner. I don't have a set plan each week of what to do. Sometimes I miss weeks. I thought I'd document the terrible record breaking temperatures we've been getting.
nylene, great graduation cards. I like how the top opens up. The birthday cards are so pretty and those cute penguins! schroema great job using up pattern paper! I really like the layout with three columns. I have some of those same cut out flowers. I'm impressed with your triangle cutting. I seriously mess them up every time!

Linda I really like the blue and orange color combo in your Jax page. I'm also loving the Navy pages of your son. The snowy night page is so pretty. I'll have to remember to use this combo for winter. I'm very impressed with how up to date you are on pages too. Such a cute kitty! The bright floral paper and green is so fun together! grammadee , I'm definitely feeling old realizing how old those photos are! Great graduation pages. scrappyrabbit , I love that car paper! Great little embellishment cluster. I'm impressed with the big sized floral pattern paper you used! kellyr21 those flowers are amazing! Beautiful, bright colors. lenigirl08 Those are very creative cards! I'm impressed by all the little extra things you added. joblackford those cats are adorable! azcrafty love how you made the backgrounds on your cards! @sunnycamom great mix of pattern paper on your pages! Great job staying caught up on more recent events too. I like the covid page. Very pretty pattern paper on the first last day. Also a clever title! schroema I love the use of banners on your page! nylene that clothesline of baby clothes is adorable!

schroema I like the different take on the banners with the Easter page. @sunnycamom you are so great with the perfect photo placement and the perfect amount of embellishments. kellyr21 LOVE those butterflies. I'm going to check out that tutorial! MARIBETHR I love the cowgirl card! Don't you just love that paper line? I'm loving the retro card. The third one is so very pretty! Love that fan. nylene your granddaughter had such a great attitude and I'm so sorry she had some health struggles! As always, you have the best page designs and are awesome at highlighting photos. Linda the bunny page is adorable! I love the little extra bunny with the pink and brown paper at the top of the page. I love that you have so many photos of your adult son! Most of my family albums the last three or four years look like I only have one child. The coronavirus paper is awesome! The paper with the tools is awesome. The green really highlights the photo.
Sorry for the three separate posts. I'm a bit behind. I made a post after going through the last three pages.

Linda and joblackford thanks! I’m jumping on the covid album bandwagon a little late! It’s in my album a bit but after hearing a kid told by their dad last week, “oh covid is over now buddy” I feel the need to document it in a more focused way. AussieMeg Winnie the Pooh! 😍

I'm very impressed with how up to date you are on pages too. Such a cute kitty! The bright floral paper and green is so fun together! Thank you - don't be fooled by the up to date layouts -DS's album is now up to date because I put a focused effort on catching it up before he came home late Thursday night on leave but the family album isn't even close. I love that you have so many photos of your adult son! Most of my family albums the last three or four years look like I only have one child. DS has always loved my scrapbooks and when he went into the Navy, he's made a point of sending me home bits of memorabilia to use in the albums - starting with sticking his boarding pass into the box of clothes sent home at the start of boot camp. So he's good about sending me photos regularly. DD21 has been home since Covid started but she would send lots of pictures from college before that. They are moving in together in January so I've warned them I'm going to combine their photos into a single album from there. I don't duplicate efforts so when they're home, the layouts go in the family album.
