MDscrapaholic, That is a great 7th grade page. I love the gray dotted paper with the green.Great job on the dots on the big 7. I love those stamped cards. Are those Nuvo drops on each. At first I thought you had sewn French knots in the centers of the flowers. Very pretty colors on flowers and Fall leaves. I love your version of the grid sketch. Cute Fair photos. We love fairs so this really speaks to me. You have some wonderful stamps. Linda, I always love pages based on Sketch Savvy sketches. Your wildlife pages are wonderful. Great photos of each animal. I love your unique take on the #2 sketch. Legos are the best. Cute design. Your cards are terrific. Why haven't I thought of doing that with PL cards I won't use. I love the designs you chose. Great idea. LisaDV, I love your "paint the window" page. Great use of the sketch and fabulous stitches. Love that photo of your DD. Your "looking this good" page is really cute. I love all the things you used to fill the diamonds. Fun photo of that man you love! Lisa, haven't you told your kids not to play with their food?...LOL, so glad she did and you got a photo of it. She's a crack-up. Love the rays on your page. woodysbetty, I love everything about your "we came together" layout. Love the viewmaster reel, the strips forming an arrow, the great colors and especially the photo. Beautiful page. justlisa7, that close up of the wedding photo is simply gorgeous. Perfect cover page for an album. I love your floral spray at the bottom. catseatcheese, wow, you are on a roll. Love that sweet baby page. The inked notebook edge looks great. I need to remember that. Beautiful blue doily. I love your LOVE page with the pretty borders. Your clusters are gorgeous. Your kiss page is beautiful with it's spatters of gold. I love the white space that allows the photo to take center stage. The geometric paper and layering really add a lot to your Home page. Such a cute little pet. Beautiful job layering on your Cherished page. I love that fun star background paper. Looks like a great group of people. KelleeM, I love your take on the grid sketch. Your colors are perfect and beachy and the shaker pocket is perfection. Everything works together to make this gorgeous!! I am loving all your house album. The windows page is so well designed. So much work to make a house a home, but you guys are really doing a wonderful job. JaneB, I know I am computer challenged, but I just don't understand how you do the wonderful things you post on a computer. Pictures or no pictures, your artistry always comes through. gramma, I love the ribbon you have threaded through the photo mat and those adorable wooden animals. So cute! crystalb, that is such a wonderful use of the sketch. I love the way you have filled the boxes and love that sweet photo. Cute and classy! kitbop, your example of the sketch is beautiful. I have a hard time with asymmetrical designs but want to try this. I love the circles and the strip page dividers and strip journaling.

Can we post LO’s in this thread if we’re not on a team, but have met some of the challenges? Page 1: Sorry ladies, it looks like I started down the page instead of at the top and missed the first two layouts submitted. You two are fast! Chinagirl828 , Beautiful layout, as always! That background paper is perfect for the theme. KelleeM , Lovely layout and little girl. I love the colors on this, the ribbon on your photo mat and the woodland creatures stopping by to visit, and the flowers you have around the top of the frame. PAGE 2: KelleeM , Left love on the sketch thread for layout #1. We really needed Windows: Love the title alpha choice and how you placed windows on your banner for emphasis, I love the little cogs as photo corners on your journaling, and the little film strip with the "before (yikes)" which made me laugh. catseatcheese , leaving love in the gallery for your lovely layouts. PAGE 3: MDscrapaholic , love your stamped cards. I want to go find a stamp to make something similar now. I left love on Sketch 2 thread for your carnival page. LisaDV - that layout was worth the hours you put in and you and JaneB make me want to go digi lol. I could never give up traditional, but I do love digital too. KikiPea , you are on my team, that is if you want to be. I asked if you could join my team and stinkerbelle said yes on the chitchat thread. But even if you don't, any one can share layouts and complete challenges. kitbop , fantastic layout. I'll leave love on the sketch thread. Oh! I didn't realize I was added. Thank you! I'll post shortly.

Made some simple cards with PL-type cards that won't otherwise get used. I write to my older two, my mum, and a couple of elderly family friends every week and they love getting homemade cards even super simple ones like this. (and my scanning sucketh - sorry - but I don't have a phone camera and I can't find the cable for the dSLR) First, I'll say your cards are super cute. That's a great use of project life cards. I'll have to search through some of mine. Second, You write to multiple people each week!! My has a hard time getting Christmas cards out brain cannot even fathom that type of dedication and discipline. I can't even make a phone call every week. nylene, left love in the gallery, but I had to fave as I'm so lifting those cards. KelleeM, such a cute take on the sketch today. Love the stitches, fiber and banner labels.

Thanks - I should probably say that I AIM to write every week but some weeks life gets in the way. But with DS in Japan and now DD in college, they love getting mail. And my mum and the two family friends are in their 80s and not online to message or email or send photos so.... I feel like it's important to keep in touch with them

My take on Sketch #2. A 6x8 layout. It was a little harder to do on a small page - looks a little crowded. The old items are the flair and wood veneer. It's a rainy day here in Florida so hard to get a clearer picture. 5945DA57-ECDC-4290-82B9-B7875F733BE3 by lisa h, on Flickr

It's been overcast here, so the color is a little bit off. It also makes it hard for you to read the long phrase on the left-hand side. It says: The best things in life are the people we love, the places we’ve been & the memories we’ve made along the way. *Posted a challenge: 1 *Posted LO: 2 *Did a challenge: 1 *Dot it up again!: 2 *Tiny Talk: 2 *Donna challenge: 10 *Go Yuge!: 1- My title is the phrase that goes across the middle of the left page. *Come Out and Play: 2 *Fall for it!: 1 *Handmade: 2 *Using class inspiration- Shimelle's Layer class: 2 *Things that Shine: 2 *Sept sketch/scraplift challenge:1 TOTAL: 29

woodysbetty I love your take on Sketchtember #1. The colours on that pp are gorgeous. Was the giant chevron pattern right on the page? I am thinking it might be fun to lift this by turning several sheets from a collection on point and layering them.

Onward to comments on shares on page two. Why am I always so far behind? catseatcheese, I you HAVE been busy!!! Yay on being able to post your pages! Really happy to see the results of your scrappy labour. Love all your layering and how the soft colours work with the Kraft. KelleeM, that house Reno page is awesome. Love that each photo is framed like a window, and how they show all the action and the results. justlisa7 I am loving all your wedding pages! The smiles in that large photo are certainly feature worthy. I love that you surrounded the b&w photo with the pretty blue, and nested it in flowers.

linda - Those cards are great! How awesome that you still write to family members. It's a dying art for sure. myboysnme - I love seeing your game night pages. So much fun! And the page with your sons desk and work is cool. I would love to see a page like this about someone in my family. I love that corrugated name title. I used some corrugated paper this month too lol That brightly colored 60th Bday page rock! I love the bright colors! KikiPea - I love this page! I love how balanced it is and the touches of gold. KelleeM - I love the papers you chose and that stitching and stars! stinkerbelle , nylene , kitbop , LisaDV, and justlisa7 there is love in the gallery! Ok, so far so good at staying caught up, but I need to make it over to the sketch threads too. I feel like my mojo is coming back! Maybe that's going to be an every other month thing lol. LisaDV - I could never give up paper scrapping either, and I honestly don't think I would have the patience for digi. It's the cutting and gluing and playing that I love most about paper. I'm going to get dinner out of the way quick and start on a sketch! I love all the different takes on each one I've seen!

Love that photo and all the fun bits added to your diamonds the food play page is so bright and cheerful and that stitched sunburst is fabulous! Love the story of the photo, kids are so funny! Your daughter’s history program sounds like a good one! I love her paper plate mask love the stitched circle and fun school and family icons! Great job with the sketch! justlisa7 wow, another gorgeous page from you! That photo is stunning and you’ve definitely showcased it here! I really like your take on sketch 2 in 6x8 size; the photos really shine and you’ve added just enough embellishment. Your pup was beautiful, sorry to hear of her passing. Linda love your take on sketch 2! Very clever to make a title page and I love all the fun lego goodies going on! Love your idea for using up PL cards you’re unlikely to use otherwise and kudos to you for actually writing weekly! catseatcheese what beautiful pages! On an adorable hello, I love the contrast of the kraft background with the bright colors and the multi-matted photo! Love love the colors on the Love page and those fussy cut flowers! love the sprinkled hearts and sweet photo too! I really like the design of a kiss to remember and that arrow clip is perfect! I love the mix of patterns on the super cute guinea pig page; great design too! Really loving the design of cherished too and you’re rocking the Maggie holmes! KelleeM your sketch 2 grid LO is gorgeous! Perfect way to use some of those shots of scenery and I love the cute beach elements. The shaker is my favorite part!

I’m sure the recipients were thrilled to get them KikiPea great job with the sketch! I really love the color scheme here, especially the pops of purple/red! The circle at the top and the hearts add a nice touch of softness to all the square edges and of course that quote is fabulous! myboysnme love the fun cards paper and alpha on game night; great photos and colors on the 25th birdhday page and do I spy nuvo drops or do my eyes deceive me? love how you matted the photos and journaling into one block atop the busy background! both of the 60th birthday pages are great! Love the grid-style, again contrasting with the more wild background; the brothers’ birthday pages really showcase the photos and I love how you added different shots for each son! Ha, the utensils paper is too perfect for the restaurant LOs! The beer page is my favorite; love love the play on words with the title and the torn menu in the corner! I think it’s so great you document your son’s teaching career; and that he supplies you with photos! I love how you’ve included his name badge, the article about new teachers and the conversation; his album will be a treasure!

Ugh! I have to stop scrapping and get ready for work tomorrow! WAAAAAAHHH...... Here's the two layouts I did today Jolly Elf (Sketchtember Day 1) I turned the sketch on it's side to use the big triangle as a tree. Wondering if I should add another circle, outside or inside the red one, with green? What do you think? All State (that's me! My second year of college ball waaaay back when... lol)

And gosh, what a pretty girl you were
