Thanks for sharing your pages, natscraps. I like how you mat the photos then put them on a themed background pp. Especially like the SLOTH pp! Just the essential embellishments. They look clean and fresh, and I bet your family loves going through your albums. Another stunning page, KikiPea! What a busy little guy! Love the greens and of course your clusters are just perfect! gramma there will be love in the Gallery. It was great playing with you the other day! |

I tried out some new alpha stamps on some quick scrap cards to donate. The lower case ones are Feed Your Craft - I was trying to do that thing where you have the outline and the color a little offset but they stamped really well and actually ended up lined up. Oh well! The uppercase is from Concord and 9th. I splurged during their recent sale.  March cards by jo.blackford, on Flickr |

I have one more project I have been working on for the last few days I hope to have finished by the end of the month--a cb book for my dgs. It is a s-l-o-w process of doing one 2 pager segment at a time, one layer at a time as I glue everything down then seal each finished page with mod podge, and waiting after each step for the glue to dry. Have the last couple of pages and the back cover to finish, so should be done by the end of March. I am catching up on comments here, on the other threads, and on Flickr. And calculating and adding up my points. So happy I did the calculations up to the end of the second double point crop weekend. So just a few more to go. Another friendly reminder to find the April sign up thread and get your name in there. April could be another long month... You may need a little artistic break, some encouragement and inspiration from others--and a competitive edge  ! |

Well, I've been busy making cards this month & a couple of LO's. I belong to Club Scrap & during this "stay-in" my goal is to complete all of the card kits that are in my stash. Maybe I will actually have birthday cards when i need them instead of rushing to make one at the last minute. I apologize for the quality of the pics. I should have edited them better, but I wanted to make the March deadline. I also completed a couple of Thanksgiving LO's/ It's hard when you don't have great pics.Maybe I need to assign a new photographer for these cuz when you are the hostess, & the cook, it's hard to get great pictures.

teacherlisa, that transcribed voice mail is a hoot! Glad that you printed it to include. Great idea to go with a TN for documenting these stressful times. Did you use one of the folders to make the TN or was this a pre made booklet? christinec68, patin and joblackford, there is love on Flickr.

I used a ton of different kits for this one, which is very unlike me.... I usually stick to one kit and one designer. I used papers and element from various kits: Christmas Shimmer, Our Story, and Lovely by Neia, Lovin’ My Life by the GingerScraps Design Team, Yesterday, Seek Magic, and Kiss Kiss by Becca Bonneville, plastic pocket by Magical Scraps Galore plus some other bits and pieces that I lost track of!  |

I just flooded the Gallery with covers and pages of the cb book I finished this morning for my dgs. I will share just the front cover here, but if you want to see the rest, just click on the Gallery button above...  front cover by Gramma Dee, on Flickr This book has 14 pages, (1 cb pages double sided) each 5x7". I am going EASY PEASY on points, so 14 pages x 15 points per page = 210 points. |

Ok, giant catch up on the comments here!  I LOVED Spending some time with a cup of coffee and looking at all the layouts for the month! Beautiful work! Linda - Your Jordan the tortoise layout was so fun! And what a huge tortoise that is! Well, as far as I have ever seen. Also, as I was looking at these pages, I am in awe of all the photos you get scrapped! It is really quite the accomplishment! And I loved you 202 title page. What a nice start to the year.Finally, good for you for sewing some masks to donate. I have been thinking maybe I will try to figure that out. grammadee - I think you may be the only person I have ever seen that does more sports pages than I do. LOL! I love all your hockey pages. I feel like I am right in the season with your layouts. Your Explore the beach page is amazing! So perfect with that big beautiful picture. I am always drawn to pictures showing people from behind. Loves the watercolors on the Artists at work page! And then moving on to swimming, that title for the Naomi page was great along with all the little swimming accents. Your hello card was so striking with the colors and the layers! And the dance page with those big boot and the flowers was just lovely! I had to laugh at your curling page. I am one of those that enjoys watching it during the Olympics, but never have the chance to watch it otherwise, although I know there is a club here in town. And finally your Just Crop It page. I love that you scrapped those photos. I seem to take pictures when scrapping with friends but then never really do anything with them. christinec68 - Your Gingerbread Wars was one of the first layouts I saw when I started looking at them today and I just loved it! The papers you used and the long strips of paper and long journaling were great! I also loved your Chpooed page. Love that show and I love that you did something similar! The Squishies pages was so eye catching! Loved the layers and the circles and the title! Finally, I literally went ohhhh! When I saw your Color My World page. Love, love, love the rainbow! AussieMeg - I really love looking at your pages! You are so talented with digital pages! And I love to see what you are scrapping because I too have older kids to scrap. Your Birthdays Then and Now page is sooo cool! How fun that you did that and have the photos! The Lightning Premiers pages was an awesome sports page with great colors and touches! Loved the pastel colors on the Baskets of Fun page and the yellows and oranges on the 21st bday page! You really know how to work with colors! And lastly, The Lads, I love that the friend talked the boys into doing the photos! Great boy page! gmcwife1 - I really enjoyed all the card you made this month! I can't believe that you made all of those sets out of paper packs somefor just $2.99! That is quite the deal. And they are beautiful cards! I am sure people love getting them. I am trying to make and send more cards right now too, so I appreciated seeing your designs. More comments to come .... |

Finally some sunshine and time away from stay at home chores to add the last few pages I've completed in March. A grand total of 51 layouts in one month! A new record for me, whew.
The last of 2010 Halloween layouts:
This is the only one I did "anything" to, other than stick photos on pre-made pages from a kit I bought more than 10 years ago. Had to search for awhile before I found it! Since I don't have photos of DS from his Russian schools Grades k-3, I used one of the sets for those years. I made the 5th using my newly acquired skills on my ScanNCut and Canvas Studio. Yeah me!
Since I found/remembered I should scrap his school photos I also found his sports team photos.
But he really likes these layouts from his senior year
I've another layout completed but need to not share until it goes live for the SID blog. Hugs to everyone!

More comments ... gramma - Your Annie Lange Animal cards are so cute! I am not familiar with her and need to look her up And that Flamingo card is so bright and cheery! Love it! Your prom layout was beautiful! The page and your girl. I love that you made the shirts and hoodies and then the scrapbook page too! I did a few shirts but for my daughter this year for her teams and they are a lot of work but fun! Her team is lucky to have you! And finally, you too making masks. I have a friend in the medical field who just posted about getting some masks from a client and was so appreciative. I am sure your will be appreciated too! joblackford - You made so many amazing cards this month! Your repurposed pug are is great and what a fun idea to just cover the other sentiment! And the easter cards were beautiful! I hate it when those intricate cuts get messed up but your turned out beauticul in the end. All of your sets of sheet cards turn out so great! I always think I need to look into that when I see you post them. And the Heidi Swapp Wolf Pack sets are great manly cards. I really like that line although I have not bought much from it yet. Finally, I continue to enjoy your monster cards! Darling! angel97701 - Your Key West page was beautifu! Love that you got to see so many butterflies. And all your first day of school pages are awesome - love how you did the last page in the series! Also, your Spidey page. I always love to see how people use those types of papers and stickers. They tend to stump me but your page is great! nylene - I always enjoy seeing your pages and the great titles and embellishments you do. Your Cub Scout page is exactly what I mean. Love that title! And the Valentine page was so sweet with the red and the lacy look. And sweet, sweet baby! And finally your flower card is beautiful! KikiPea - I loved looking at your Fort Worth Page - the title in the state outline caught my attention right away, but I also loved your use of the art crayons, my scrapping friends have those but I need to see how to use them. I like the effect you got! And your beautiful watercolor backgrounds on the Let It Snow and Chilly layouts are perfect!! |

Last group of comments ... kitbop - Your Waterfall Walks layout was so great! I love the circles and hearts and the watercolor and stitching. And the photo is fun too! Your Hand Me Downs pages is great! I love a dance page. It is great that you started with an older product you didn't really love and made the page your own and so pretty! Love the title particularly. Your Ill Advised Moments layout has so many cool details that I just stopped to take it all in. The design was so striking and I love the colors. mom - Your Simple Joys page was so attractive and clean love the title and flowers. And your Jamica page was so great with all the rectangle elements and the stitching. natscraps - Love the Disney pages! They can be so overwhelming because you take so many pictures there. Well done knocking a bunch out. And I have a special love of baseball so I enjoyed seeing your Spring Training page. teacherlisa - I had to giggle at your Office Max page. Love that you captured that on a page. And your Coronavirus TN is so very timely, I have been keeping some notes and thinking of starting something of my own. patin - I love your Blessed page with that beautiful wreath cut! And wow! All those Club Scrap cards are amazing! I was a member of that for a lot of time. Love that you are using the kits. I was not as good about that. LOL! angel97701 - Love your school pages you just posted. Someday I will get my kids's school albums caught up! I particularly love the bright colors. And your sports pages. I always pay special attention to sports pages and appreciate it when people share what they do. Great month every one!! |

And I have a special love of baseball so I enjoyed seeing your Spring Training page. There were 9 of us for a one week trip In 2016 and combined we had over 8000 photos. I managed to only print 700. We went again last summer for two weeks and I did much better. 6000 photos and I only plan to print 450. |

 My month has been all cards. 😀 I am trying to send cards to my mom and aunts and a few family friends who are all older with underlying issues so they are not leaving their homes. It has been a great “excuse” to pull out some stamps and dies that I bought but haven’t used. The above set was using a Pink and Main box card die along with Lawn Fawn sentiment die and stamp.  This set of cards was a quick set using a butterfly cut from the Silhouette store.  My son’s birthday was last Saturday. He saw these panda stamps on my desk and asked me to make him a card using them.  I used a Lawn Fawn dies set and stamps to make a set of this slider card. |
