What an adorable kitty page, Linda! Perfect cut apart! LOVE that punched(?) orange piece tucked in that looks like the edge of a throw blanket: how clever! And how perfectly placed! And I see those little corner clusters. That's a skill I have yet to master.

And I see those little corner clusters. That's a skill I have yet to master. Thank you - the orange piece on the left? it's actually part of a die cut notebook page but yes, it worked well to look like a blanket tucked in

Ki Memories paper that's as old as my youngest kid, lol. Scraps for the rest. Circles are punches, flower is Paper Studio, I think, Alphas are AC Remarks, maybe

Taking a scrappy day today. Here's my first of the day with a photo from 2020, Photoplay cutapart card, and Paper Studio sticker I love the tilted layers behind your photo block. And the saying on that card is hilarious! I need to remember that saying for a future title idea.

Thank you scrappyrabbit - it was perfect for that photo Next up is a layout using a Paper Studio kit I got on clearance for 1.49 and have now used for three layouts, I think, and it's still going strong so I've more than gotten my money's worth from it It completes my Feb 2020 layouts! Star is a cutfile, circles are punches. Super simple, mostly photos on this one. Title is stamped on a cut-down PL card and the paper clip is die cut. This one didn't quite come out as planned but I love the colours and it's in the album. circles are all punches except the black one which is a cut file.

kitbop, grammadee, maribeth and AussieMeg, you have love in the gallery. Linda, I love the orange and yellow together on your kitty page. I love the clusters in the corners and that punched piece looks like a warm, comfy blanket for your cats. Love that card and the sentiment. Made me giggle.~Great job on your Lent page. I love the way you used a tag as a mat on your photo. The pancake supper looks delicious. ~I would love to see your star-gazing page in real life. I’m sure the sparkle is gorgeous. I love the top and bottom use of half circles. Beautiful page.~Great story on your Today page. I hope the gluten free diet helps her. I love the quadrants with 3 large photos and title and journaling in the 4th box. I have actually scraplifted that from you! Thanks!~Great design on the ball page with Annabelle. I really like the black and green and the big banner with the circles. This is for Sketchy Saturday 4-23-22. Ninth Grade by

Found time to put a layout together. This is a rare selfie one, which I love because I love pinks and butterflies and flowers, and I'm a mom of three boys (not that you can't use those colors and elements with boys, I definitely do sometimes, but I liked this because I feel like I can lean more into it). It's a very PinkFresh heavy layout: PF papers, PF floral die cuts, and the butterflies were made using PF a butterfly hot foil plate and die set. No real story with this photo. I think I took it because I was happy with how my hair looked that day, lol.

nylene - gluten-free ended up not being the solution for DD...which she wasn't terribly upset by since she's a picky eater. We eventually figured out that she's still having issues with corn (she had a corn allergy as a baby), specifically field corn. I love your school layout - the shelf of books, the striped PP in the background, the notes on his current faves...perfect! scrappymeg - lovely flowery pink layout with pretty butterflies - your smile is the highlight though!

Yours looks fabulous and I love the colours

justjac and scrappyrabbit, I left love in the gallery on your pages. justjac, I'm glad you were not going fast when the wheel came off! scrappymeg, your page is beautiful. I love the soft colors of flowers and butterflies. That white die cut circle really brings the eye to your pretty photo and the title. That IS a great photo of you! This page went a little crazy. It looks a bit like "sticker sneeze" with stars. But it's done and going in the album! You Are Awesome by Nylene Budge, on Flickr

Thank you linda and nylene for your sweet comments! Most of the time I look like a hot mess, so I'm definitely all about documenting the times I was able to put some effort in, lol. I love your page nylene - I like how the stars and butterflies create another frame that draws attention to the photo and how the yellow tones stand out among the reds and blues.

grammadee, flood away. It's always fun to see new layouts popping up and completing 30 layouts in a weekend makes my head swim. I want to see and study each one! I'll catch them in the gallery.

I will be back to the Gallery to leave love for your pages scrappyrabbit and AussieMeg . Here is my thread flood for today: three more two pagers from last weekend. I had fun creating the background here with stamps and blended inks: My goal by Gramma Dee, on Flickr This one I got to use some of the supplies from last fall's Crop & Create kit, plus a little brand new VB. Got the idea from justjac to split up the title stickers into a word I wanted to use (Home came from Hello and Welcome on the cb sticker sheet) at home with J & J by Gramma Dee, on Flickr And a quick simple LO created with supplies picked up from the store at the crop. Started with three identical sheets of pp. I cut the left sheet so that the feet would continue running from the right side, and then placed it on the B side of the 3rd sheet.
POINTS: six pages created & shared (12). Sixteen photos for the Donna challenge (16). P-1 coloured cs (1), P-2 chipboard (4), P-4 alphas (2), P-7 dif manufacturers (9), P-12 PL cards (3), S/I-4 squares (11), S/I-5 stars (1), S/I-1 camera (1), S/I-14 arrows (14), C/M-6 no pink (2), T-3 stamps (6), T-10 torn edges (4), W/T-1 month letters (7), W/T-8 journal strips (3), Th-2 outside (5) Th-6 away from home pic's 2022 (20), 2021 (6), N/S-1 patterns (9), N/S-3 pic sizes (11), N/S-4 clusters (5), N/S-5 half & half (1), N/s-6 5x7 (1). Total: 152.
One more day of flooding tomorrow, and then I will have posted all my crop pages. I DO have my scraproom cleaned and my supplies from the crop put away, but I don't see alot of creating in my future for at least a week.
