That crafty kitty is so darn cute, Linda ! So glad you are snapping and scrapping him! Here are the five tower pinwheel cards I put together this weekend. When you finish them, it means crafting four different faces for each. Fun to do, but alot more crafting than my usual "normal" fold cards, especially since I usually don't "do" the inside; simply write a note and sign. But they ARE fun, and alot easier to engineer than alot of fancy fold cards...
POINTS: for these, I prob should go through and add points up individually. But claiming five 5x7 cards, created & shared with Easy Peasy points = 85 points.

those are awesome cards grammadee - I can see how they are extra work but well worth it! 3 April sketchy saturday sketch - using Photoplay Cat Lover collection kit  and I thought I had shared this one but apparently not. All scraps except the background and I think the stickers are Echo Park. It's an April sketchy Saturday sketch too but I'm not sure which one anymore  27 March sketchy Saturday sketch - all scraps again  |

The cards are so good kitbop ! I love the colors and the font of that thanks is awesome. The mountain scene one is so clever - such simple shapes but so effective. Really lovely. |

Sorry I'm totally behind on looking at what everyone has been making. I'll start on this page but hope to have some time to go back and check out the rest. craftymom101 your layout is so cheerful and is making me hungry for seafood and sunshine. I like what you did with the puffy embellishments. The hearts are very effective to draw the eye into your girls and cover up random people in the background  Linda you've been really busy! lots of lovely kitty pages. It looks like you're having a great time with the sketches. I love that you saw armadillos! One of those things that I can't even imagine seeing in the wild. I love that you're able to get so many pages made and it looks like you're using lots of great papers and colors. grammadee thanks for sharing a top view of your fancy pinwheel cards! They look like quite a bit of work but not too fiddly is good. I couldn't quite visualize them at first but they look like a lot of fun to display - I wonder how they'd look with photos on a couple of sides - that would be fun to send to far flung family. |

Thank you joblackford - I was lucky to be able to scrap all day today (and probably most of tomorrow as well) didn't use a sketch for this one  Last one for tonight - super simple pandemic layout with the Persnickety Prints final timeline  |

Linda , I love all the different snapshots of your home and your life are appearing on your pages. As always, each page is perfectly designed for its theme. Love that slice of life! And your photos of nature and the close up of the flower are gorgeous. Congrats on your garden produce! craftymom101 , that page is delightful! Awesome that you included the photo of the people and of the food and the wider scene. Of course, great layering, perfect colour combo. And I love how you used those VB puffy words and hearts. Those cards are AMAZING, kitbop ! Great inking and embossing, wonderful geometric designs, perfect colours. And good work getting dd out of bed to help you finish them up for HER party  !

Thank you grammadee - hoping next year's album will have a little less home and a little more explore/travel/attend... Last two for March 2021 - both simple colourblocked layouts. The second has a certificate tucked in at the bottom.   |

And with this layout I'm up to date with my sketch class! I'm pretty pleased about that. This sketch was hard for me - my first attempt turned out NOTHING like the sketch (it turned into my "sick cat" layout LOL, the only remnants of the sketch are the blue triangles I was playing with). The stitching on this was a PITA - machines don't like tiny triangles to stitch around!  layout beached blond by kirstendrew, on Flickr |

Here are the last of the cards I made with the Damask Love papers. They’re pretty haphazard - I mixed Doodlebug leftovers and things from my stash with some of the DL die cuts. I have one more that I’m dithering over but I packed up all the other leftovers and called this project finished.  Aug share by jo.blackford, on Flickr  Aug share by jo.blackford, on Flickr |

Linda, your page using the April 17 sketch is beautiful. I think I want to try that. I have a hard time if the sketch has tiny photos because mine are all mostly 4x6. Love the banner colors in cat prints at the bottom.~ It looks like Dusty is totally involved in scrapping. I love the pinks, green and browns you used on this cute page.~Love the photos of Dusty and Paddington playing together. Great page.~I am so interested in your photos of wildlife. I have never seen an armadillo and I can’t image seeing them in the wild. How fun for you! Are they ever pesky?~It looks like your garden is doing well. Very nicely scrapped beautiful produce!~ I love the design of your page with the brick background. The corners and banners are perfect with a big photo of your family. Love that brick!~Your photo of you and Mini is so sweet. What a lucky little kitty to be so loved. I love the black and white color scheme with red added to match your shirt. Very striking color scheme.~ Your pages of your DS are always wonderful. He’s lucky to have such a “documenting” mother. Great job on the Covid page. craftymom101, your photo of you and your girls is beautiful. What fun to live close to the sea and have access to wonderful seafood. I love the layering you have done on this page as well as the dimension in you embellishments. It is a beautiful page and a fun day to remember. kitbop, there is love in the gallery for you. Amazing work!

This is the card I sent to Linda for her birthday. Didn't want to share it until today. I used a cutfile that gramma sent me for those cats in the middle. I decided to pop them out (as well as the cake behind them), so figured out a fold for that.  cat bd by Gramma Dee, on Flickr  cat bd inside by Gramma Dee, on Flickr And a LO. The right page is based on AussieMeg 's Sketchy Saturday challenge for Aug 28th:
Points: one card, created & shared @ easy peasy points = 17 points. Also claiming the 20 points for the August Twelve card challenge, plus an additional 10 for the space travel themed card. Total: 47.
Two pages created & shared (4). R-1 Sketchy Saturday (5) plus this is my third this month, so bonus of (20). R-3 five points/pic for the Donna challenge (25), P-1 foiled cs on each page (2), P-4 six scraps used (6), P-9 ancient velvet ribbon, old BoBunny, and new 49& market (5),C/M-1 used green (2), T-4 stamped date (1), Th-2 food on both pages (2), Th-10 Augus '21 pic's (2), N/S-3 five photos (5), N/S-5 numbers (5). total: 84

Sharing my only full size layout of August... but I am really happy with it. I killed off my entire 1Canoe2 Twilight collection and made 2 cards with the remaining scraps. I also made a few 6x8 layouts for my niece's mini-album this month.  Untitled by scrappy rabbit, on Flickr |
