I found the two Grinch die cuts several years ago at an Expo. I just had them saved for the right layout. We went to visit one of my sons before Christmas and my husband pulls out a Christmas gift in a bag and says is is for all of us. It was this awesome Grinch sweatshirt he found online. For the day we were all together, it was the rule that if you were Grinchy to someone else or were saying something negative, you had to wear the sweatshirt. Man, did that sweatshirt make the rounds. Everyone was a good sport about it and we all had it on several times that day. I knew the second my son pulled the sweatshirt out of the bag that this was the perfect photo/layout opportunity to use those die cuts. The other images I found online. It's a little busy, but so is the sweatshirt. It just makes me smile. View AttachmentHow fun is that? And not too busy, since you've keep things in columns.

I need to go back to page four and take a look at the creations I missed. Here are four Sympathy cards I put together this morning. Will be hand delivering them to my dd tomorrow and she will distribute to her dh and his sibblings who are gathering after the sudden passing of their mother. Their mother loved knitting and drinkiing tea. She was partial to the colours orange and purple. sympathy for loss of mom by Gramma Dee, on Flickr

Leaving love for the last half of page FOUR: vexedangel , you have used those Halloween colours and shapes to the MAX for a very distinctive LO. Kudos for making those spring colours work SOOO well for the spooky photos! azcrafty I giggled when I saw those cake chomping dinosaurs! Perfect for the little guys! And the pink cards are really inspiring: great affirmations and I love the cute central characters and awesome colours. Love all the Grinch gear, 950nancy! Obviuosly everyone enjoyed modeling it, so you have super fun photos. And I love how you gave each a separate column on the LO. Awesome holiday LO! Heading over to Flickr now to leave love for joblackford and angel97701 's cards.

I did some experimenting with inks and stencils today and came up with one card I don't love (but hopefully someone will appreciate it) and two cards I do love. I used a stencil that's actually a big floral but I hoped it would work as a vaguely leafy background. I used some butterflies I'd colored for my 100 day project, and some Doodlepop sloths for the others.

I also made some Cards for Cubs (foster kid card drive) using teen/tween girl digital stamps I bought and colored a couple of years ago and some bits and bobs that were hanging around on my desk. I have some boy ones I need to find backgrounds for, and lots more of these background papers I need more images for.

grammadee those are pretty cards. Im sorry that you had to make them for a sad occasion. I like how you used her favorite colors and activities. They are very special and the 'kids' will appreciate it. Sorry for yours and your family's loss. joblackford I love that sloth, really cute. You did beautiful job with the blending. Those digi girls are adorable.
