I finished a sketch from AussieMeg for this one - turned the sketch sideways to accomodate the photo - and I'm really really happy with the outcome! The paper is 2013, Front Porch Pebbles; the chipboard is Craft Market - how old is that stuff? I don't even know! Used a stencil and paste too for texture. layout statuesque by kirstendrew, on Flickr Love the stencil/paste....on my list to try soon.

grammadee - Thank you for the advice. I asked ADMIN on 2Peas, as I had requested on Flickr. I am now patiromcolorady on Flickr. Im looking forward to seeing everyone on Flickr soon. AussieMeg - I really like your rainbow LO. So very bright & colorful. Is that Digital? If so, double wow, as it looks so dimensional. I , too do a lot of digital, but the only thing that seems to give my LO's dimension is shadowing. KikiPea - I like your take on grammadees LO. It always amazes me the different inspiration we can achieve. I like all the papers you used. kitbop - Nice turn on the inspiration page. Why don't I think to do that. I like your brick paste. Will that eventually crack off or is it real permanent? I can just imagine mine looing like a pile of sparkly dust at the bottom of my page after a couple of years, so i have hesitated using it on pages- just cards. joblackford - I neglected to comment on the first cards you posted. I love "punny cards" & yours are a hoot. I am sure the recipient will get a chuckle from them. 2 more Italian LO's Castellina in Chianti by Pati Nuce, on Flickr Castellina in Chianti by Pati Nuce, on Flickr

gmcwife1 - You do a great job on your cards. They are very clean & STRAIGHT! I am sure the soldiers will appreciate having those fun pandas to send home. I used to make cards for Operation Write Home, but they shut that avenue down as so many of our troops were coming home.(which of course is a good thing.) @nylenee- I left you some love on Flickr I seem to be struggling to incorporate any of the challenges in my scrapbooking at the moment, although I love looking at all of them. I really appreciate all the inspiration, even if I am not acting on it. However, I am getting a lot of scrapping done & that is the whole point- correct? Here is today's offering. It is NOT a 2 pagae spread. We enjoyed sitting at some sidewalk cafes in Italy and while I had the coffee themed kit out, thought I would complete a couple of pages: Sorrento Coffee by Pati Nuce, on Flickr Tivoli Coffee by Pati Nuce, on Flickr

I made some more friendship cards this week. I used the same stamps as my last set (I stamped a bunch of them last year and cut them on my ScanNCut so I’m still using them up) but I used Shimelle’s Sparkle City journaling pad papers for most of the backgrounds. (for reasons of inventory vs personal use papers, but it was an opportunity to use papers I never would’ve thought to use this way). A couple of them have little characters inside too but I forgot to photograph them, and the one with no sentiment has the “friends were flowers” inside.

You’ve been having fun with the Sheetloads of Cards designs! I love it. I haven’t made any since Christmas or so. I need to try out the last couple, especially the thread nest one, since there was a whole thread/twine nest discussion on the boards. I envy your output lately - you’ll have to update us with a count when you send your box out.

But that paper... <3 I like your TM, tucked into that corner, but then it’s double trouble since it’s by the Michaels I wish it wasn’t cost prohibitive to mail paper, I definitely don’t need all 25 sheets of this paper!

I would like to leave Love on Flickr for any of you that are posting there, however, I seem to be Flickr challenged. I had to open a new account & haven't been able to access the 2 peas account or any of you that I have asked to follow. Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks. Have you tried PMing admin to ask for permission to join the 2Peas Gallery? I think she suggested putting in the request on Flickr AND contacting her through the board. (Instructions are in THIS thread) PS I just tried to send you an invitation and it said you had already received one? If you haven't, I will try again with a different Flickr alias (you have a few) Can you send me an invite too? I’ve asked to join and didn’t hear anything back.

Is your name on Flickr the same as your pea name?

gmcwife1, i love all your cards. They are simple designs, but you make them special with the papers you have chosen. ITA that the panda pp is a wonderful choice, but the florals are very pretty as well. Heading to Flickr to leave some love for joblackford and patin.

Think I have finally caught up on comments. It has been a busy month. And that's a GOOD thing! Here are a couple of Valentine cards. I think they fit into a couple of 29-4-29 challenges, but will have to check. Dont know why this one looks so dark. The card base is a pearly white. valentine '20 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr These are for a couple of dgs's who may be here later today: valentine fox by Gramma Dee, on Flickr

I think I caught all your lovely work in the gallery, AussieMeg , grammadee , patin , joblackford , kitbop and justjac . gmcwife1, your cards are very pretty. I love the patterned papers you put together. Such a pleasing design. I can see lots of papers done in this design. Thanks for sharing. I want to use up some scraps and scraplift you.~ Your panda cards are adorable. They would make anyone smile. Congrats on getting a great buy on the paper. The soldiers will be so happy to have these. Your completed stacks of cards are amazing. What a sweet service.

My MIL’s birthday is coming up soon, and I needed to get playing with this SSS “mom” die that I just HAD to buy last year. I didn’t do anything too fancy this time but it came out nicely. It’s fiddly though! I will need to investigate what sentiments I can use with it for Mother’s Day. February MIL birthday card by jo.blackford, on Flickr

All caught up with page one. jeremysgirl what a beautiful layout and beautiful girls! I struggle with circles for some reason and yours look awesome! gmcwife1 your Mother’s Day card is gorgeous! KikiPea “smile” is gorgeous! I love the layers and your clusters are always awesome! And the Lord’s Prayer is such a precious story! I love the colors you chose and that you added the prayer on the journaling strips. lynnek - I love the vintage feel of this page! Love the color choices! Love in the gallery for those who post there!

Selfie booth at Valentines dinner at a whiskey distillery last night.
I was inspired by a LO made by Becky from Paper Issues posted below. Love how it turned out! ❤️

February MIL birthday card by jo.blackford, on Flickr Turn it upside down for “WOW” or cut it apart for individual letters??? May get done more use out if it. Yes! Thank you for the suggestions. I wondered about the WOW too... I’m going to play around. It also cuts a MOM in bold letters to use on another card or to inlay with this, and I think I can cut the top of the O off those letters to say Mum, which is what I call mine. And then maybe I can cut the word away completely and use the flowers behind another frame. So many possibilities... maybe I can make OMM or OW! cards too. Lol.
