grammadee - you are on a TEAR! Your layouts have really seemed well designed this month, like they are flowing out of you naturally. I'll take a closer look and leave love in the gallery.

This one was inspired by a layout kmage shared in the Shimelle thread - hers is much more detailed and awesome - but I totally borrowed the background from hers so...giving credit I'm not thrilled with the title - the wording are fine but the matting and die cut letters... not so much but this was try 3 and I was done.  |

And after promising not to flood this thread, I am back with my pages from yesterday. I spent the day at the LSS while my vehicle was in the shop. Took minimal supplies and my photos. Bought most of the papers and stickers to go with them. Gotta tell you, the Vicki Boutin aisle came into play big time for this one:  May 2023 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr And that aisle also played a part in this LO, as well as the Simple Stories rack with this woodgrain pp in it. Inspired by Sketchy Saturday 15-04-22 for this:  Make it Sweet by Gramma Dee, on Flickr I was inspired by You Are My Sunshine I saw on Pinterest for this one. Had cut the 49&Market background with my EK Success curvy cutter at home, and packed the pp and washi I wanted to use with it:  June 2023 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr I brought the Scrapbook Customs team collections from home, but had purchased both of them at this store a year or two ago:  battle of alberta by Gramma Dee, on Flickr For this one, I used my just arrived Canada themed collection from CM which I packed in my go-bag when I packed these pic's. I had also packed a printout of the sketch from Sketchy Saturday 04-06-22.
POINTS: Eight pages created & shared: (16). Twenty-five photos (25) and THEME (10) for the June Donna challenge. Two Sketchy Saturday (10). P-1 three coloured cs (3), P-4 five alpha pks (5), P-7 mixed companies SS & VB (2) 49& market & SS (2) CM & SC (2) CM & VB (2), P-10 washi (12), P-11 CV 6x8" pad (1), P-12 two PL cards (2), P-13 new CM papers (1), S/I-3 butterflies (2), S/I-5 fifteen stars (15), S/I-6 two hexagons + hex pp in June (6), S/I-14 arrows (8), C/M-1 pastels (1), C/M-6 no pink (3), C/M-7 no blues (1), C/M-11 gold pieces (2), T-2 dies (6), W/T-1 May + June (7) plus two bonus (10), W/T-3 alpha title fonts (5), W/T-4 places Orlando, Calgary, Nanaimo (3), W/T-7 happy (1), Th-2 outdoor pic's (5), Th-6 May/June photos away from home X2 (48), Th-14 Disney (1), n/S-1 patterns (12), N/S-3 photo sizes (14), N/S-4 clusters (8), N/S-6 5x7 photos (2).

Trying to figure out where I fell off the boat and quit commenting. I think that was about page 8, so that is where I will start now. MDscrapaholic I LOVE your crazy happy FUN "Let's Celebrate" birthday page! It completely encapsulates the chaos of a toddler on sugar! And you ROCKED that No Limits line with your Double Play page! And that sibling chat photo is adorable. How sweet that the star took time to pay attention to the little one. Linda, you have that pocket look-alike style down pat. Love the clean lines. AussieMeg, I know I commented on your delightful puppy love page in the Gallery, but I have to say again how much I love that photo, and what you did with that page design. MARIBETHR, you used your doll stamps perfectly to create that cute little mermaid. Guess you can't say you don't do 'em, anymore! I really need to get back to your Flickr album and leave love there for all your marvelous cards and ATC's and court pages. What do you plan to do with your delicious art panels? Will they go into a book? Or grace the walls of your craft room? I love how each has a unique personality! Your bible art page is beautiful. Love the restful colours. craftymom101, your Sunshine & good times page is gorgeous from the peeled paint background to the awesome pool pic's to all of the fun summer embellishments. the whole page feels cool and refreshing, like a dip in the pool. And paget, you are turnin' out the pocket pages! And each so fun to look at. If I could figure out a balance like you have between photos and story and embellishments, I would do more of them myself, but mine end up looking more like pages from a photo album! The first LO caught my eye immediately with the flower that exactly matched your drink! And I love the way you use colour and placement to create a mood. @sunnycamom, your zebra card is really cute and I love how you used it on your page. Perfect use of rainbow colours--and who would think with a zebra? Will be back tomorrow to look at the next couple of pages. Sorry this has taken me so long. |

And on to Page 9:kmage , you really worked those travel and lake cut aparts to make the most of this boating page. @sunnycamom , your use of triangles on the pizza page adds a fun element. scrappyrabbit , I have really been enjoying your travel pages the last few weeks. And Arthur is adorable. Linda , I am always impressed by how your scrapbook pages reflect the love and connection of your family. Great moments captured and scrapped. And the use of different colour schemes and papers makes every page unique and interesting to look at. And you ROCKED that pink paper with the water photos! gramma , you may have finished only two LO's this quarter, but they are gorgeous LO's! I will go find them on flickr and look more closely. kitbop , there is love on Flickr for your pages too. The ink work on that Flamin Ramen LO is phenomenal! craftymom101 , I know some people struggled with seeing that May kit used for boys, but did you ever prove THEM wrong with that wonderful birthday page for Jack! Love those padded stars and the celebration feel to this page. MARIBETHR , that wooden tag looks so cool with all the texture and depth! paget , as if your PL pages weren't fun enough, along you come with the flip pockets on your Vegas spread! Really cool look at your adventure! I probably would have felt the need for several 12x12 pages, and you got it into one spread that says it all! And I love that you include a Gratitude page on the week with less excitement--but no less interest on your LO. Love all the touches of blue/green on the week 22 page, especially that sectioned heart.
And on to page 10, which I didn't mean to hog.
Linda, I love how you took inspiration from another Pea's work and then made it totally your own on Made from Scratch.
And craftymom101, your mountain adventure pages are really wonderful. The great photos and all that white space makes me smell that mountain fresh air! What is the manufacturer of those papers with the outline conifers? Perfect for these pages.

May and June have been VERY busy for me in terms of life events, but not so much in terms of crafting, LOL. however, I did manage to create 6 (!!) cards all at once (!) for various family members' graduations, including DS's. They're all the same design, using inspiration from two separate grad cards I found on Pinterest. I used their school colors to complement the black and white. 5 are for college grads, 1 for my niece's HS graduation.  gradcards2 by Wendy M, on Flickr My scrap desk is littered with extra graduation embellishments and sentiments that I cut. Some I cut intentionally for use on other projects - others were just happy accidents. I had cut all the "Congratulations" sentiments but then decided that it was too large and made the split title too far apart so the numbers looked weird (to me at least), so I decided to stamp them instead. The good news is that now I have 6 beautifully cut "Congratulations" sentiments in black all ready to use elsewhere! |

I love Shimelle's page designs, but had trouble marrying specific designs to specific colour schemes. This LO is based on one of her Yellow designs, and strongly inspired by THIS page by AussieMeg . Of course I had to make it a two pager...
Dropping this one in here so I can score these two LO's together. This was my sample for last Saturday's sketch:
POINTS: four pages created & shared (8). Ten photos for the Donna challenge (10). One sketchy Saturday (5). P-1 Coloured cs (3), P-2 chipboard (12), embellished (10), P-4 alphas (3), P-7 different manufacturers (8), P-8 new & old (6), p-11 6x8 (1), P-12 PL cards (3), P-16 frames (1), S/I-3 (4) butterflies, S/I-4 squares (2), S/I-5 stars (14), C/M-6 no pinks (1),C/M-11 foiled sun, stars (2), T-9 dimension (1), T-10 torn edges (12), W/T-1 month letters (6), Th-2 outside (2), Th-6 pic's away from home (20), N/S-1 patterns (6), N/S-3 pic sizes (6), N/S-6 5x7 photos (10),. Total: 156

grammadee your pages are gorgeous. I love, love your use of color- really drawn to it. The happiness is homemade is so cute with the great use of “cookies” to add interest and fill the space. I am 100% stealing that idea with the sun! Omg - love it. Is that ribbon? Washi? Doing it. Watch for it 😂

I am 100% stealing that idea with the sun! Omg - love it. Is that ribbon? Washi? Doing it. Watch for it 😂 Thankyou! Looking forward to seeing your take on this! I first cut the circle out of the background cs. Then I placed the cs on my gridded mat, and marked the centre. After that it was easy to crisscross the washi tape across the centre, and that also kept the page in place. Then I used thin strips of scraps to fill in the other “rays”. You could definitely use ribbon! Then I trimmed around the circle and popped a photo back there. |

loving all the inspiration - I need to come back and look more closely The first layout after a scrappy hiatus always seems the hardest and never comes out quite right, imo CADD topper cut apart for the title, Paper Studio stickers - used my circle punches - I have no idea about the PP it's a scrap  |

this one came together easier - super simple just cardstock and QK heart die cuts  also simple - with Photoplay PL cards and scraps and some stickers from deep in my stash  |

I finally caught up on comments on the layouts posted in the gallery. I will now try to catch all the ones in the Sharing thread. paget, I am so impressed with your pocket pages. I really enjoy your journaling. Such a great documentation of what is going on in your life right now. I especially love the artistic elements throughout the pages. Beautifully done! Linda, you are so brave to post a photo of yourself in a swimsuit! You are such a great keeper of all your family events. I love the background floral and the pinks in your Summer page.~ That paisley paper looks so rich on your Made From Scratch. I wish the men in my life would take a turn cooking! LOL. That meal looks delicious.~I know how hard that first layout is after a hiatus, but this first day of High School turned out lovely. I love that grid paper on your banner and the use of strip journaling. Keep scrapping. (I’m telling myself to get back to it too.)~ Your kitty pages are always wonderful. I can’t read the journaling on the first one, but I love the photos and the way you have alternated the orange and grey. Very pretty. The 2nd page is delightful. Your kitties deserve to be spoiled. Love the kitty die cut mounted on the scalloped circle and that cute border. craftymom101, I love your photos from Exploring the Mountains. Your journaling is well done and your embellishments are perfect. I love the way you have used the sequins with your embellishment clusters. Very pretty.~Great photo on your Sun and Fun page. I love the banner and the use of tiny embellishments with all the Summer word tags. The rays and bright colors just scream happy summer. azcrafty, I know you are a card making genius, but your taco card is beyond amazing. I loved watching you turn a lemon into a tomato. What did you use for those seeds? Fabulous work. |
