Happy September! (After typing SKETCHtember so many times last night, I am surprised I can actually spell the month correctly!)
This is where we come to share our creations and share the love. You do not need to be a member of a September team, or be taking on any of the challenges specifically (although I almost want to post a challenge that is a DARE to NOT meet any of the month's challenges once they are "set in stone" end of day Sept 3rd). If you created something with paper--or any other platform--show us your stuff!
There are lots of ways to share your September creations. Please do NOT link a photo as an attachment directly from your computer, as that eats up space on this site. If you are a Flickr member, please post pic's of your work there. You can then link them directly into a post by copying and pasting the BBcode address into your message. If you are not a member of the 2Peas Gallery group, please let us know and we can help you with that. You can link directly from your phone with the Tapatalk app. Or from your social media sites like fb and ig.
However you share your work, please share! If you have been linking to other challenge threads, maybe post a note here to say what you have created and where we can find it.
If you are looking to see what other Peas have created this months they will be shared all over the place! SKETCHtember and Donna and Lift a PEA and OTHER crafts challenge takes should be shared right in those challenge threads. You are welcome to link them here, too, but not necessary to earn the sharing point. Of course it is always a good idea to check out the Gallery.
And if you see someone else's creation, please comment. We LOVE the love!!!

Here ya go. It's us! Thanks for the idea Grammadee  There were a few more Peas from the virtual crops who I wanted to include, but I didn't have photos. You're in there in spirit, I promise! I'm really grateful that we've been able to spend some time together making pretty things! And thank you to the person who drew the bucket and put it online for me to find   |

(please autumn, come soon!) I couldn't agree more! As of right now, they're forecasting 105°F/40°C for us over the upcoming holiday weekend. Ugh! |

My mind must be in Sketch land! I didn't know what to do with the page facing Story Time (my SKETCHtember #1 sample). But today I found a sketch I liked in a SG on line book. Bonus that it also helps me meet my OWN "Try a triangle" challenge!  School at Home by Gramma Dee, on Flickr These photos were taken in April 2020.
Oh, and BTW, I already crashed and burned as far as Linda 's No Spend September challenge! Ended up ordering THREE of these SG sketchbooks this morning!
POINTS: One page created & shared (2). #2 three photos for Donna challenge (3), #3 triangles + bonus for 9+ triangles (4), #15 2020 photos (1), #16 Covid closed the schools (1), #28 school (1), #31 & 32 (2), #35 my spring album (1), #39 three small photos (1), #42 these pic's make me smile (1), #43 I am picking scraps, and this page started with six of them (6), #45 5+ pp's (5), #46 ledger pp, triangles, primary colours, inking & handwriting (10), #48 puffy stickers (1), #55 love this little guy (1),. Total: 40.

grammadee - we must have been posting at the same time - love all the triangles on that school at home layout and the lined paper background. No worries on the no-spend challenge - it's not for everyone. (and it's not my challenge - tc came up with it)

Sorry, tc . Does it count that the "youngest" pp on the LO is a year old and I won it as a prize, so it "technically" cost me nothing?
That box is gorgeous, CoffeeCrafter. Love the fall pallett. Is it cut with dies? |

I have been a stash busting fool today! LOL A fun floral ephemera explosion! This is my SIL and mom. My mom and I had surprised her for her baby shower in Las Vegas in 2017. One of my favorite trips ever!  |

This photo and LO crack me up. It's a long story, but my mom NEVER eats like this. She was playing around before she said her prayer, and I told her that she was asking for forgiveness before diving in. Better to ask forgiveness...right???🤣 I love the flowers, but don’t use that style often. So, I decided to try to use as many as possible on one or two LO’s! I laid out all of the flowers in the wreath design, and made the colored droplets with Vicki Boutin’s art crayons.  |

KikiPea, you did an awesome job with the flowers! Love the clusters on that VB background pp. and the wreath turned out beautifully: just a bigger cluster, right? Love the different coloured drops, too. Haven’t tried that yet. What a great photo of your mom and I bet she will giggle a little when she sees this page!

I'm using an old prompt list for 30 days of lists - doing a half-sheet format (8.5x5.5), super simple, limited embellishment, and leaving space to add photos. Day 1 - I cut the flower from the paper scraps grammadee - does the second page with just the empty photo mat still count as a page? Or should I just count the double-page spread as a single 8.5x11 page?  |

Not sure, Linda. Maybe count it as an 8 1/2 x 11" LO? |

Not sure, Linda . Maybe count it as an 8 1/2 x 11" LO? that works for me - I was leaning that way figuring it's just a 8.5x11 cut in half. Thanks |

That box is gorgeous, CoffeeCrafter. Love the fall pallett. Is it cut with dies? Thanks, grammadee. No dies on this one. I did the old school way with just a paper trimmer and scoring board. It's SUPER easy to make! |

I love the idea of your booklet, Linda. Some days we ALL need a book with lists of the positive things in our lives! And I love the colours you used on the second list. Burgundy is often an overlooked autumn hue, but I love it. |

Here is a birthday card I finished this morning. It is for my ddil who will be picking up her new puppy sometime this month. This should work for KikiPea 's Something OLD, something NEW challenge! Used Newton's Nook slimline card dies I received last month with some older product from my Birthday Bin. It even has an Around the Block metal piece, purchased at a LSS closing out sale years ago, and FLOCK! Yes, from one of those little Doodlebug bottles. Don't have the manufacturer's card with them, but the code on the similarly packaged db glitter says 2007!
Taking the Easy peasy here; one card created & shared (2), and 15 easy points (15). Total: 17

that is a super cute card grammadee. I love the little birthday puppy! Do you mail the cards? Where do you find slimline envelopes (or do you make your own)? I've been thinking about trying my hand at adapting one with the Cricut. |

I've been thinking about trying my hand at adapting one with the Cricut. Thanks! I plunk the slimline diecut shapes onto a 9x4" card base that fits perfectly into a business envelope. This one is going to cost a little more to mail I think, b/c the post office people slide it through a slot to see if it fits for standard postage. With just chipboard it might make it; with the added layers and paint and flock (and I will put a piece of thin paper over the front of this card cuz of the flocking) this card might not make it through that slot. |

Here are my cards for today. I was invited to join the Instagram collaboration team for the monthly SheetLoad of Cards series. These are the cards I created using the September 2020 template which is all about slimline cards. As always, more details are on my blog.  |

I'm not sure how/if to count this, but here's a digital image I colored with Copic markers that I plan to frame and put in my kitchen. I love creating framed art of some of the larger Copic coloring pieces I've done. The finished size of this one is 8x8".  |

CoffeeCrafter - I LOVE your cards - I need to checkout the September sheetload. The more slimline cards I see, the more I want to try them. Gorgeous colouring! I would count it as a creation between 5x7 and 8x11 if you're counting easy peasy points - that would be 1 for creating, 1 for sharing here, and 15 easypeasy points.
