@kendramage your fancy folding card is lovely! LavenderLayoutLady you are on a roll today! I just finished my second layout of the weekend, lol nylene I think it's cool that your GD has her own special "spot" to enjoy the views. lynnek fun rainbow cards and your kits looks great, too! I love kits that are colorful. grammadee that's a great layout. I struggle with double page spreads, and even multiple photos on a single layout. That one doesn't look too scary to approach! Below is my layout for Friday's Random Challenge - Donna's layout. I've got a white background, some doodling and a one word title. The journaling is on a tag hidden behind the lemon paper. Off to pick another challenge!

@kendramage , what a pretty card. It looks like your gatefold folded perfectly. I love the ribbon and flower. lynnek , your cards are great. I love the fishing fly stamp and my DH would be partial to the golf ball. Those are great stamps for masculine cards. Nicely done! Your kit looks like you can have some fun with it. I've never made a big kit, but sometimes kit just a few things together for a certain page. Maybe I will get brave and try it. LavenderLayoutLady , how do you manage to do so many pages. I know I'm a Pokey scrapper, but wow, you are amazing. I'd love to see some if you ever post them. I think we are going to venture out for a hamburger and fries for lunch. Our restaurants are open with lots of restrictions, but we will just do the drive up window. I am going stir-crazy in this house. We took a walk around the block earlier, but I want to see more than my neighborhood! We nearly always see a couple of the grands on weekends. Right now we just look at each other! LOL Oh, the changes a virus brings. peachiceteas , you are really making progress too! Ryann , your Donna challenge is wonderful. I love those big black polka dots. The bright yellow looks so cheerful. I love the way you softened it with the pastel teal. Very pretty.

nylene - I love that Autumn Day layout! The leaves are a great cluster under the journaling and I like the papers you combined. My daughter is having the hardest time with social distancing too! LavenderLayoutLady - That is a lot you have gotten done! I keep thinking about Pandemic layouts but have not actually done any. I too have been going through my supplies as I have been scrapbooking and throwing things away or putting them in a give away box. @kendramage - I love that Mother's Day card! I like the panel on the front and the center opening. So neat! peachiceteas - I am impressed that you got all those PL spreads done! And a night of pizza, tv and drinks sounds pretty nice too! Ryann - What a great layout! I love the black and white polks dots! And the colors with bits of blue and yellow are very nice. I am afraid of that challenge because of the doodling!

He seems to think I care where the bison are in the pasture, so he gives me the sitrep periodically... This had me laughing out loud. 😂 on my phone I can’t do snippets from within a post, so I’m just tagging along with yours.

Finished my second two page LO, with the same sketch--and same orientation--as the first one. Different papers, though, this time. I was livin' on the edge, here. Decided to use the paint spatters at the last minute, and ended up doing them while I had my ipad right there in the middle of a Hangout session. Whew! Got away with that. Proceeded to complete the LO with the wet paint still WET. I loved the 49th & Market surf pp, but wanted to give it a bit more depth, so I tore the strips and then overlapped them. Of course some wound up crooked after being glued down, so I trimmed them with an Xacto knife while the paint was still wet... Vacation Mode by Gramma Dee, on Flickr The scrap gods have been good to me today--- don't know if I want to tempt them again...

Ritz crackers with cream cheese My DD loves this as a snack...she likes to add a piece of ham, or some red pepper jelly to them too. But...yuck to black licorice I'm afraid! Being of Dutch heritage, I'm supposed to naturally love black licorice, but I just can't! LisaDV - love the pps and colours! peachiceteas, congrats on being productive! And milk chocolate cookies - I assume you mean milk chocolate chunks? I often buy good quality chocolate bars (especially after Christmas on clearance!) and then chop them up in cookies. Yummy. @kendramage - the mothers day card is simply gorgeous. I love the pps, the contrast of green and pink and the textures! nylene - I love your autumn layout! The colours and the typed journaling are lovely. lynnek - love the colours on your layout. I just completed that sketch too but turned it sideways. The funny part is, I had to look twice at your layout to "see" the sketch, even tho you stayed pretty true to it! Love your masculine cards - great use of the jute and kraft to create boyish interest!

Good news! I found a scrap of paper the exact same bright shade of green as the (heavily used) virus emoji on the iPhone. lol. I'll find a spot for that somewhere in my book.
I've been printing and working in a very non linear way, which was my intention with this notebook. I don't want to start at the beginning and have the early pages scream "I don't know what I'm doing" before getting into a groove. So I'm jumping around wildly and so far have nothing to show you. But it's only lunchtime here so I have hope that I can at least share some WIP pictures later today.
Also trying to remember that I can stamp titles.

Ryann , tell me how you got that badge to work!!! grammadee When I download Meg's file, it has all 4 badges together, so I cropped down to just the badge I wanted to use. I'm on a Mac, so I used Photos to do it quickly. I hosted the file on my website, then included the BBCode for it in my signature: [img src=" INSERT URL HERE" style="max-width:100%;"] I hope that helps Can you please share your web address for this badge? I tried saving it small like my avatar and then attaching it in my signature from my computer but that didn't work. Here is the file I saved: Attachments:

hello all. Getting a late start to the crop today - slept in past 9 which is very unusual for me - and then had to do the grocery shop...glad we bought loo roll online from Walmart because Aldi and Publix are STILL out. Meat was empty at Aldi also although Publix seemed reasonably stocked. And when I came home - the girls were set up with a Sims contest and DD13 was on my computer. So I snuck some layouts in before finally getting online. edited - my scans didn't come out very well - the greys line up in the Dumbo one and the backgrounds are actually WHITE Today's Sketchy Saturday sketch April 4th Sketchy Saturday

This LO was made mostly from OLD things I found in my stash while cleaning/reorganizing my scrap room. So old in fact, that I cannot find a release date for it!

So, yesterday I was able to finish 8 pages, and today 2 more. It was fun cropping with everyone online, and it really kept me focused so I could get a lot done.

I need to add some lyrics to this page, but I need to get a copy of the video in order to do it. She sang a jingle for the radio station in the production. It was really cute Love those Vicki Boutin papers. And a mix of Shimelle papers and stickers for this one

loving all the inspiration -I'll be back with compliments later, I promise. Here's my card for the iNSD challenge #2 (saturday) - re-reading the challenge, I guess I didn't actually meet it since I didn't use a PL card. I'll have to dig around in my christmas box and see if I can find one that'll work with this sentiment (only sentiment die I own). I'm not sure I've gotten the Cricut/SCAL set up with this new computer yet

joblackford - Isn't that awesome when you find the exact paper you need and in your stash no less! I look forward to seeing your pages. I like the idea of jumping around, I just have a hard time getting my mind to do that. kitbop - Love, love that Niagara Falls page! The big circle, even though you don't see a lot of it really moves your eye around the page. And those big bold arrow pieces are so nice on there! Linda - You are totally rocking the Disney Pages! If they ever needed pictures of any of their rides, they should just come to you! It is so cool that you have all of those pictures! KikiPea - You are rocking the older paper. Who cares if it is older when you make it look that good! @misliz - After scrapping with you yesterday, I was looking for your pages! You were so productive! I love how many pictures you get on a page and still have design elements! And I love your paper choices! That Jen Hadfield and the One Canoe Two and the Shimelle, you make it all look good! justjac - Wow, were you productive!! I love all your "manly" pages. I sometimes struggle with those so I love to see what others do. Your first train page just looks perfect and that train tag! Very cool! I also love the little bridge and park bench on the pages. I have never seen those before. Did you make them? And your card is beautiful!!

Wow! So many pages and cards! Good job, Peas! Ryann , I love the yellow/black/white colour combo and the layered cluster at the top corner. Still learning how to cluster here. KikiPea , your page is beautiful. Love the white woodgrain behind all the pretty florals. Linda , your Disney pages are so much fun! And your card is really pretty: love the cranberry red. Your MOJO has definitely come back with a vengence! WTG keeping up with all the challenges. I need to go back and read Saturday's again. Hadn't finished Friday's by the time that Saturday's dropped. About the only ones I have taken on have been the sketches. Hope I caught the rest on Flickr.

So how do we print the awesome cards Aussie Meg made? I can’t figure it out. After I download them, I double click on the image I want to print (the page of all 6 cards is the easiest). They open automatically on my computer as a photo, and I can print from there. I adjust the print settings - I choose "high quality" and "matte photo paper" even tho I'm just using cardstock paper. I think before our next big 2Peas Party, I need to find the camera that goes to my computer and have DSIL come help me figure out what I need to do to use it. I'm jealous that you all get to see and interact with one another and I don't! I know! We would love to chat with you! If I had to mess with a webcam, I'd struggle to connect too. I can use my ipad or laptop with built-in webcam and then it's just a one-click deal. The funny part is we had TWO peas chatting with us last night who admitted they were only still hanging around because they couldn't figure how to DISCONNECT from us No names I found my way into a chat. I think you were there? I didn’t catch everyone’s user names. Good fun And we're so glad you did!!! It was such a thrill, honestly, to have an international crowd. It is reassuring to hear from Your daylight gave us all a late night boost I think grammadee wasn't there last night (unless she joined after I left) but gramma was!!! I'm...slowly...learning! Hahahah thank you! I’ll try jump on again this morning if the kids aren’t fighting! And I loved chatting to you all even if I did wander on in by accident 😂

I chuckled at the ladies who couldn’t disconnect <3 (laughing with you, not at you!) I’m glad you’re having fun hanging out. Shh you! That would be me. Glad it gave you a chuckle! It was you that reminded me to check in here too 😜

Thanks lynnek. The bench and bridge are very old Prima products. I bought them because of the bridge looking like the one by my parents' house, but never got around to using them until now.

I think this is going to be my last page for today. I may finish a card later. Last week I cut the clipboard and paper clips so this didn't take long today. Priceless Treasures
