Great work patin ! I adore the sequin pom-poms! I love the matching paper and how you've kept the green all the way through, even to the skirt you're wearing in the photo, way to go! How pretty is Hailey, love the pic of her cheerleading, Fabulous LOs! I was asked to do a sample LO for a cybercrop this week, by my DT Store. So I did this LO. The challenge was to use 3 photos (why not 2 and I could get a point eh!). So I pulled out my favourite collection and it came together super fast! Claiming 15 for this one, 1 for a LO, 1 for sharing, #3, #4, #7, #12 + BONUS, #15, #17, #31, #44 and Stash Challenge - washi, latest purchase, handwriting and pre-made title.

I'm working my way through, and marking my spot here so I know where to come back. I left some love in the gallery, but will be back to properly comment later! I have to get back to work lol I am totally loving everything I've seen. I wish I had time to scraplift so many of these! ETA: Duh, of course this went to the last page. Left off on page 5

This is a little story I visualised and for once, what I saw in my head I managed to create. While it may have a slightly rude word as its title the sentiment that there's an arse (idiot) for every chair makes me smile.
I drew the main image myself and made the rubber hashtag. Papers are from Soul Smile by Amber Shaw and the font is Heavenfield Typewriter.
Challenges: Sketchtember (with twist punctuation), mat it, type it, white space.

My take on today’s sketch. I had printed my photos 2-up so I treated them as just 2 photos.

christinec68, what a sweet page you made with the grid sketch. She looks so gorgeous dressed up for Holy Communion. I love all the papers you used in your squares and the embellishments are perfect. Very special page. patin, congrats on the graduation of your beautiful daughter. The greens carried clear through look so classy. I love the jewels and the school mascot stickers. Great page designs and beautifully done. I had to giggle at the cute little graduate sticker. I still have a few of those Me and My Big Ideas stickers, but I'm hoarding them. Love it. kiwigirl, or I should say Miss Nuvo Perfectionist, your page is gorgeous. You must have the most steady hand. I have never had any Nuvos but I know I'd make a mess. I love the drama of the black background and the vivid colors. Your photos are so cute. LOL, JaneB, you have such a sense of humor along with your artistic talent. I love your chair and really giggled at the journaling. I'm really enjoying all your layouts. You did a great job on the sketch!! KelleeM, what a great idea to use paint swipes across your painting page. I love the colors. I hate painting because one of us usually steps backward into the paint pan and the taping takes forever. Want to come paint my bedroom I have been putting off?

This is my take on Sketch #6. #1 Sketch 6 with the twist-5, #4 Enamel Dots, #3 Number, #7 Tiny Talk #9 Circles #15 Metal and wood, #18 Three Colors, #21 Tipped elements-so hard for me to do,but I tipped the tag, #22 Puffy heart stickers #26 Work, #32 Brads #33 Mat it #37 Typewriter font on journaling #38 6x6 all but background, #39 Handmade die cluster #43 Stamp-white ink on dark flower, #46 Doily #49 Bird + one page posted =2. Total 24 pts.
Sorry, the white edges don't show up against the white background. I tried adding a line border around it in Paint but couldn't figure it out.

I love all the papers you've used and those lush Pinkfresh letters! You have so many pictures to scrap, love that you're getting them done and into albums, way to go!

September sketch layout Love all the black and red Linda, and those little paw prints well between fighting with the Cricut and SCAL and the sketch itself...this one has taken the better part of a day to complete (sketchember 5) - the enamal dots are actually the same green as the doily and strips but the scanner hates dots. Super pages (for the superpower!) I love reading but I'm glad I never had to dress up, I was always useless at that. You did a great job scraplift from the Jan 2017 sketch/scraplift challenge This is brilliant, love the quote and "It's tough being perfect" the colours, and that little tine of tuna I was asked to do a sample LO for a cybercrop this week, by my DT Store. So I did this LO. The challenge was to use 3 photos (why not 2 and I could get a point eh!). So I pulled out my favourite collection and it came together super fast! Stupendous - I think that's a word I haven't yet used. I'm running out of superlatives for everyone's work! I love all the colours against the black background, and of course your border My take on today’s sketch. I had printed my photos 2-up so I treated them as just 2 photos. Great page with the paint swashes behind the photos! My Dad coined a phrase when we moved house IBNWID - it'll be nice when it's done

I know I haven't personally commented on all your pages but I have loved them all. Tremendous work, telling all the stories with so many photos that I often wish I was there too!

patin - I love that you included all those pictures! kiwigirl - I love how everything just pops off the black background. JaneB - your thoughts came to together perfectly!

You used great papers and I love that you included so many pictures!!

patin - love when there are coordinating colours and logos like this! christinec68 - I love joshua tree - great use of the more neutral colours but still contrasting across at the junction. Communion - fabulous colours and love the bits of interest like the staples! myboysnme - you are doing an incredible job with these family albums. So many stories, beautiful matting and colours every single time. nylene - it looks like a magazine cover! I think it's the journaling strips that are in the white space at the bottom - they provide contast and interest and yet they are just strips? It's beautiful! JaneB - LOL, fab. The colours and diagonal stripes leading to the vertical sitting arses are very satisfying. kiwigirl - I'm gonna go back to a black background and try again! I lovelovelove it. KelleeM - paint swooshes are absolutely perfect, you really really got this one perfect and it doesn't feel at first glance like a 4 grid layout because of them.

Finally got sketch #2 done!!! 15 points - including the 5 sketch points. No pp - I'm such a pp lover, I can't believe I did it! Pardon the photography, a little dark - it's dim this morning, the sun is rising later, so the indoor lights are on! layout wavepool by kirstendrew, on Flickr

linda - I love what you've done with the sketch! The bold colors and the stamped paws, and I especially love that belt element across the top and all the layers. It looks great! I really like the vellum quote on I love my cats. Is it vellum or a rub on? I have some of those quotes on vellum somewhere. I should pull them out this month. Reading is my Super Power instantly made me smile. I spent my growing up years hiding behind chairs with my nose in a book avoiding chores. I love to read. I love that background paper you used, it's perfect for this! You did a great job with adapting that sketch! gramma - I know you aren't happy with this page, and I saw why, but I love it! msliz - Super cute and fun page! I love how the tilted photos and zig zags give the feel of a carnival ride! And that title is awesome! kiwigirl - I really like the overall layout design, and the grid photos - I'm going to be lifting that. it's a clean, simple page, but so many interesting elements as well. I really love that Doodlebug line. It's still in my cart, but it is going to be coming home to me soon! KelleeM - I love these home pages you have been doing and that paint behind the photos is awesome! myboysnme - I love the way you are documenting things, like game nights, and skype calls. I need to get back to that in my scrapbooking. I love these pages! stinkerbelle, nylene, JaneB, justlisa7 patin, christinec68, kitbop, I left love in the gallery! I *think* I'm caught up now. For now anyway lol

myboysnme, I love your military photos. The map paper and star border are the perfect color background for your photos. Your Guns of August page looks like a fun time together. Love the dice paper in the corner. The tank die cut on the Tanker page is really cool. My DH was a tank driver while in the Armed Cavalry.Love the push-ups on Fort Sil and more map paper. I think it's neat that you have a letter tucked in and a photo on Skype. What would we do without Skype? Beautiful graduation pages. Love the blue background, white stars mixed with the red. Wonderfully patriotic. christinec68, I love your font on Joshua Tree. The top paper is fabulous for a concert. Love the way you used enamel dot bullet points for your journaling. Wonderful page. kitbop, I love, love, love your grid layout. Those colored doilies are gorgeous. Great job on each square.I love the waves and the strip journaling and your font. Super cute. msliz, I love the background paper on your Power Tools page. Looks like wood grain which just fits. Great job with the rounded end strips of "branches" paper. Cute title signs. This all works together perfectly. Oh, my, those wedding pages are gorgeous. I love the white die cuts. Did you cut them? and would you share where you got the file? Simply amazing pages. KelleeM, your Pond pages are adorable. I love the bright orange with the striped strips. Such cute little embellishments and delightful photos. Those bird houses are phenomenal! I love the rounded strips for background and the perfect tool and bird house accents. Fabulous double pagers.

kitbop where does one find those adorable doilies? They are the mini-doilies by Doodlebug from a few years back. I adored them and needed ALL the colours but didn't want to buy a huge quantity of a single colour. But then Paper Issues made up packs of all the colours for a good price...about 4 of each colour. I regret only buying 1 because I've run out of many of the colours and they really are a great size for many things. There are still some colours in stock at scrapbook.com, but of course they are single-colour packages and many of my favourite colours are gone. I don't know why Doodlebug stopped making them actually.

Big price difference compare to scrapbook.com. Hmmm. Thanks for the information. Too bad kiwigirl is in the UK and you’re in Canada, I’d buy some and split them up but shipping would cost a fortune.
