I found some more Hallowe'en photos - these are from 2014 - looks like the scan missed the far right edge  |

Going out tonight so no crafting for me but I did manage to squeeze in this little double page for my mother's Christmas gift mini album. I'll add a couple of small photos to the left page when her tree goes up in December. Loved adapting this sketch for a 4x5 mini, by the way, JaneB (and thank you for the easy twist  ). It was fun and straightforward.
"Mon beau sapin" literally means "My beautiful Christmas tree" but is just the French version of O Tannenbaum.  And because I'm from the South-East of France, here's a half-Corsican, half-French version of the song (in case anyone's trying to get into the spirit for some early Christmas crafting).

I thought at first the pictures were supposed to be slanted and that I needed the 3 pics at the bottom, too. Now, I'm thinking the sketch was just slanted in the pic and the bottom was a card....OK, I still like it, not going to change it! The reason you're seeing the same pics for me, is I scrap for 11 grands and I'm putting a family destination wedding we all attended in their books. Its really challenging me to use up old supplies and embellishments that I probably would have never used. I tend to go easy on embellishments when I don't have encouragement.  |

This one was super quick: panoramic photo, two strips of glitter tape, couple of embellishments, done. I think it's taken nearly as long for the mist to dry as it did to put the rest of it together.  |

I'm sorry - I see the pages in the Flickr gallery or the main sharing thread and forget to pop back here!
Linda love your Halloween page with orange and purple. Having never carved pumpkin I now know to continue avoiding it 
sleepingbooty I said elsewhere I love the page size and the clean, simple elegance. I'm glad the sketch was easy to adapt; I have much experience in adapting for my own page size, although I can't imagine doing it without the aid of the computer!
@elaynef how effective is that paper with the boat, I almost feel like I'm there. I agree with Linda those papers are sometimes so hard to use and you did a marvellous job here
Chinagirl828 that is such a great page with the dramatic night skyline, and the splatters and stars on the dark background.
msliz look at all the fringing! This is one of those pages where I want to know more - did she shave her hair for a reason? When was it? Has it grown back? What on earth did you say? A simple page but the story packs a punch |

The second page below is for your sketch, JaneB. I tipped it on its side, tilted the photos, and b/c the journaling was on its facing page, I replaced that here with an additional photo on script pp. Hope that counts! I even shaded the title letters like I had planned to do.  scarecrow festival '18 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr |

I'm so far behind on sketches, but I'm mustering onward! Put this one on an angle and added my typical clusters  I had recorded the wrong "twist" for this one...thought it was "green" so I used the green throughout!!!!! Simple Stories plus some Echo park stickers.  layout monkey girl by kirstendrew, on Flickr |

Linda I just love pumpkin guts photos! I really like that strip of pumpkins at the top and the purple behind the photos and pumpkin border to tie in with the title! @elaynef I really like your spin on the sketch! The papers are so perfect and I think it’s amazing you scrap for so many family members and are able to keep track of it all!

Gorgeous work LisaDV I love the background and the cool title, it all looks awesome! I am sure I've commented on everyone else somewhere else but I'm really sorry if I didn't and I've missed you, I didn't mean to! |

I thought this sketch would be perfect for a recipe layout. I've been meaning to start a recipe photobook of all our favourite recipes so this is a good kickstart. I haven't decided whether to do 12x12 or 8.5x11. I can easily change this layout to 8.5x11 if I decide to go that way. I used the "Along for the Ride" kit by Lynn Grieveson with elements from the "Dude!" kit which is a GingerScraps Design Team collaboration.  |

AussieMeg, I've only been liking your layouts and not really commenting today, but I love seeing them and that they are digital!! Your recipe looks delicious! I love the line of flowers along the curved pattern paper.

AussieMeg I thought for sure I commented on your page but guess not, so sorry! I am also terribly hungry now, thanks  your colors are so perfect with your photos, and I love the swoopy floral border, especially paired with that stripe! Your papers remind me of the good old days of KI memories  I love the idea of a recipe book and hope to see more of your recipes! (please make something with fish, because that would never make me hungry)
