Heading back to page EIGHT to leave some love... Linda , your stamped background on Summer is amazing! Love it with the pastel banners. And the embossed butterflies on that first card really add interest. Love your stamped kitty tags. You are really rockin' those Shimelle classes! LOVE those inked panels! That two page LO with the kitties is laid out really interestingly: great transition from vertical to horizontal design. You really ARE the queen of colour coordination: the blues and greens on that family dining page are really pretty together. I don't think you will dislike that pretty in pink page so much when you look back on it: I love seeing how you pick up and apply new techniques and fit them into your own style. teacherlisa , your pages are always such an interesting slice of life. I love the contrast between workday and weekend mornings with the pic's to back it up and the happy icons on the right. Love the colour coding and stamping on your August calendar pages. Gorgeous sun rise photo! Scrapping first thing in the morning sounds delightful. Your kitchen looks very cozy. I, too, am a fan of deep blues. I like the insights into your daily life: the walks, the small adventures with your son. Nice idea to contrast your hometown past and future in photos and in memories. What do your QR codes lead to? Gorgeous flowers! Those pic's pop against that dark background. Wonderful personal reflection page: lovely photo, great insights into your life right now. craftymom101 , your layers in Heck Yeah! are amazing! Sweet couple selfie. Interesting little bits of info in your journaling. Fun page. Looks like a great start to the vacation. There is love on Flickr for you, cannmom, AussieMeg, |

Moving on to page NINE: Linda , your horse page with the cascading squares and the horseshoe is really fun, and I love how you divided the pages for the RISK game LO. I wish our family still played board games... Again with the beautiful colour combo's with the take on SKETCHtember #2! Great choice of papers for those outdoor adventure pages. And I love the black/white contrast on the kitty memorial. You may have used a "simple grid" to scrap the Universal photos, but I love that every LO is unique in design and/or colour scheme. And I see that pocket and those triangles! teacherlisa , your chumuth page is really cool with not only the pic of the food, but a bit about it and where to find it. Your portulacas are really pretty. I had forgotten how much I love them. The circles on your OLW page are really pretty colours, and using circles in a grid is a fun way to do a summary page like this. And who knew a trip to the zoo would bring out this insight? All of your pages are a wonderful combination of story and photo and design. Thanks for sharing them. kmage , cannmom, scrappinwithoutpeas , scrappyrabbit , kitbop , and nylene , there is love on Flickr. |

A mini book project from Saturday's Crafters Classroom event. Since I don't use mini books for photos, I decided I would use it to hold my favorite image. This is just the first pocket and double sided tag. Will be working on more images over my camping trip next week.   |

I'm super impressed by how some of you churn out. I decided (which I really should have realized sooner), that group challenges make crafting more of a obligation for me to produce because once I commit, I commit. But I still could have done better. I should have stayed a freelancer like I said I was. LOL. I made this card today: Hero Arts die Tombow markers  |

You Peas have been busy! Linda, did you stamp the background for Bookworm? I like the look of the deep solid down the middle and the line drawing background. Your stenciled butterflies are beautiful. And aren't YOU artsy, cutting a stencil when you don't have one?!? Great job on that LO, too. Your takes on the sketches in the different size are wonderful. Loving how you got so much white space on #4. Beautiful papers and colours as always. What a cool idea to create a book of pockets for your pretty little paper dolls, MARIBETHR. Have fun camping and scrafting. craftymom101, that foraging tour looks awesome. What a great expereince. Love how you used the shiny green title letters and stenciled paint (or is that luna paste?) to pick up the greens in the photos. FurryP I love that you continue to make cards for your dad. What a sweet way to keep him close in your heart. Oh my, so many ways to add texture and interest to your cards! That 3D embossing folder really gives that orange card great depth, and your large flat sentiment is perfect with it. And you did a great job with that quilted look pp on those cards, and the florals are so pretty. The foiled accents are beautiful too. And that Hero Arts card is GORGEOUS! Love the bright colours! Did you cut it all in one piece and then colour each flower separately, or did you paper piece the whole thing? I hope you decide to sign up for a team next quarter. Although I don't want you to feel stressed about it and far be it from me to want to suck the joy out of a hobby, but if it gets you to play more... hmmm? teacherlisa you have had a busy quarter! So glad you are celebrating those little things in life that bring us joy--time with family, a relaxing lunch, things you have been buying.... I love that peachy colour here, too. Great response to that tweet. These are the stories that make a scrapbook something people want to pick up and read. scrappyrabbit, there is love in the Gallery. |

A spooky card inspired by Mindy Eggen. Love to bust out my Drippy Goo supplies this time of year. I cannot seem to get away from the slimline cards-so addictive to make! http://instagram.com/p/Ci2qUvXsA9c |

Catching up on comments page 10 grammadee - I love the overlapping squares at the top of Waffle Chef - they definitely look like waffles to me. And that HUGE nine on you're a star is awesome - did you stamp that? MARIBETHR - Love the doubleside cards and what a great way to adapt the mini book project for you craftymom101 - love the monochromatic colour scheme - looks great with the light background and all those layering elements FurryP - I love that you make cards for your dad - I bet he treasured your cards and I hope making the cards still brings back good memories for you. All of your cards are fabulous - I love the cascade of hearts on your dad's card. The colours are lovely and fall-ish on the birthday card and the floral cards are so cheerful with the bright colours The hugs and thank you cards - I love how each is different but you've used some of the same supplies. The gold foiling takes those cards up a notch - very classy touch! teacherlisa - love the casual family pic and that you were both able to be together and to scrap that memory. The Olive garden layout is awesome - I really admire both your self-care and your journalling of it. That mini-album is such a cool idea - I love the colour of the album and the concept of documenting your purchases What a sad story about the dog - and wow on your son bringing it up so long grammadee - love the arrow journalling block on the Camping Time and the fancy letters in the title for family layout scrappyrabbit -love the beach layout with the tags! And that flamingo float PP on the summer layout is perfect - great mix of PPs there. grammadee - love the banner stretching across the two pages and all the school clusters on Back 2 School. The triangles look great on the ambulance pages - and the red/white/black colour scheme is one of my favourites. Love the waves - are they inked? and all the hearts on the lake layout. FurryP - That floral card is stunning! And please don't feel like you're obligated to craft more than you're inspired to just because you're on a team. Some folks create a lot, some only a little, and others find that life and lack of mojo get in the way - teams are for fun not for stress. kmage - I love your spooky card! |
