page 9 kmage - I love the background with the paper radiating out from the photos on your birthday layout. cannmom - that's an awesome layout - I love the colour schemed and the big title cluster - what a cutie he is! nylene - what a sweet pink layout for baby Hailey - she is indeed precious! And the puppy page with the strip of grass and the adorable picture of Penny! Geat job to Alex - that banner is perfect as are the school diecuts! Swayzee is looking so grown up all of a sudden but just as pretty as ever! That's an awesome quote! Axe throwing? Super fun layout with all the triangles and axes! I wish DH had gotten photos when he and his coworkers did axe throwing recently. scrappinwithoutpeas - I love the soft peaceful colours of Toes in the Sand - great take on the sketch! grammadee - LOVE the August calendar page - those boys look so accomplished and happy! I like how all the triangles on the Disney page allowed you to use such a variety of PPs That gnome and Lego card is fabulous! And the foiling and colours are so lovely on the fall card. scrappyrabbit - Love that crab border! And the wedding layout is beautiful -very elegant and perfect for those photos. kitbop - Love the colours and the background (did you make that yourself?) and the butterflies on Totem. Your clusters are awesome on Milkshake Nirvana - that's a massive milkshake! Love the braids! Another super pretty layout with that scalloped circle in the centre and more great clusters! cannmom - The angled strips look great - good job stepping out of your comfort zone! teacherlisa - wow - yes cooking over a fire in AZ isn't fun - AZ is already fire hot most of the time. The chumuth looks delicious though and I love that you've documented it. great quote on the flower page and you've coloured matched the back ground to the flowers superbly! kitbop - those thin black borders on your photos really catch the eye! love the cute winter critters in your clusters also. Great job documenting Kate's story - I love the colours and how they're all in the journal block just a little muted! grammadee - perfect closing page - the popsicles look delicous! And the watermelon page - I love how the dots (nuvo? enamal?) look like watermelon seeds against that background. scrappyrabbit - love the vintage feel of your baseball layout! And another elegant wedding page - I like the doily tucked under the black and white photo. What a fun way to use those busy summery prints without overwhelming the layout - the triangles are perfect for that! I love the black and white photos on that black and white heart print and just enough pink to soften the black. teacherlisa - those circles are awesome - I love how they are all different yet coordinate perfectly! and great job using a new tool. Fabulous journalling about the tortoise - what a great story and I love that you guys asked |

Trying to get caught up on all your wonderful projects. teacherlisa, I love homemade tortillas so that chumuth looks delicious to me.~ Your flowers blooming on the succulents are so very pretty. Great sentiment on the tag and I love your handwriting on all your layouts.~ I love your gelli plate background circles on your Wins. Congrats on lots of nice things going well in your life.~Thank you for sharing the Zoo story. Both of your morals to the story were perfect. I totally agree! Sweet story.~ Great photo of all of you celebrating on your Come Together page. I love the font on your title and your handwriting on your journaling. So glad you can occasionally get the family together during busy times.~ Your Olive Garden page makes me hungry. I haven’t been there for ages, but the lunch pictured and described sounds wonderful. Thanks for the head’s up. Beautiful page.~ I love the pages of What I Buy. What a great idea for an album. I empathize with you and the dog story. I hit and killed a dog on the way to school one morning and my DD was so traumatized. Loved reading your story. I hope he is no longer traumatized. Linda, your Universal page with the pockets is genius. I will remember that in including maps and ephemera. ~Love your Harry Potter grid pages. Great way to use lots of photos. I love grids. Cute HP symbol as the title.~ Your train pages have such a great design. I love the lighter paper at the bottom and matching mats on your photos and title. Very classy. ~ Great photos of the dragons(?) on the tops of the buildings. You even caught the fire breathing!~I love what you did with the triangle challenge. I really love that look on 8.5x11 with the triangles up the side. Another page for my Pinterest. ~ Did you stamp that book background on Book Worm? That is amazing. You have a whole family of bookworms, which is fabulous!~ Your first stenciling job turned out wonderfully. I love the butterfly designs in 2 different greens. Beautiful way to start a page about camping, with a wonderful background. I love the flowers you have added and that stamp shape of flowers. Very pretty.~ Your stenciled dots make a great background. It’s especially great because you made your own stencil. I love those big flowers. Are they die cuts or did you fussy cut them from paper. Wonderful page!~ Great job on Sept 8 challenge. That’s such a great use of the sketch and I love your 4 tickets. Excellent job on your clusters.~ Your Sept 4th challenge page is great. I love the monochromatic look and your banners extending from the photos. (Just read your answer to grammadee about the bookworm page)~ Your Happy Birthday card is wonderful. I love that party paper at the top. The center piece with the sentiment looks like a big bouquet of balloons. Classy card.~ How kind of you to make a card for a struggling friend. She will love the beautiful flowers and the jewels. But mostly she’ll love that you were thinking of her. craftymom101, your Foraging Tour page is gorgeous. I love the stamping and inking on your background. Your clusters are always so beautiful with so many tiny pieces. The photos are lovely! I’d love to know what you found. FurryP, I love your cards. I am loving those dies that leave holes or squares in the edges instead of stitches. Such a classy look to each card. That embossing folder is one I haven’t seen, but absolutely love. I will have to search it out on Tim Holtz site. Gorgeous work!~ I love those cards with all the pretty flowers. Did you piece each of those backgrounds? They are amazing.~ I love all the card fronts you have made. I especially love that pansy paper. You have done a beautiful job with it. The flowers are a great touch.~ Your Hello and Love You cards are so pretty. The gold foil really makes them elegant. I recognize a lot of those papers and love, love, love what you have done with them.~ Wow, I love the dimension of your flower dies. That card is gorgeous and I love the way you colored each flower. Lots of work, but well worth it. kmage, I love your Halloween Hello card. That MS punch was a great buy. I wish I had bought one. Your beautiful purple flowers are lovely. You did a great job on this. MARIBETHR, grammadee and scrappyrabbit, you have love in the gallery on all your lovely work. |

Linda, that's a sweet photo of you and Paddington. You did a great job with the sketch. I love the double mat of the photo against the heart backgrounds. Aren't you glad you bought those QK dies back in the day? I love the ones I bought. Congrats to Annabelle for being able to entice new members by making fire with flint and steel. I love the stripes in the colors of the campfire and the dark frame on your journaling. She's a cutie! You are really moving along on the Sketches.

Arragh! I just lost my whole post. I'll try again. teacherlisa, that is such a great birthday page. I love the grids filled with great parts of your day. I am glad it was a nice day and that it made you feel optimistic. That sunrise is gorgeous. The pinks you used with it are the exact colors of the photo. So very pretty. I need to get up earlier and enjoy the sunrises. Thanks for sharing. Linda, your St. Patrick's Day page is really fun. I love the photo of the meal and really love your matching apron. So fun that you scrap those lesser holidays and events. Love the pots of gold. Clever!~ Poor DD with her cast. Just what she didn't need as she gets going back into school. I love the papers you used for the background and how they are held together with the strip journaling. Do you store your patterned paper by color or by manuf? You always seem to have lots of paper that go together in every color. |

Thank you nylene - most of my PP and all of my cardstock is stored by colour. The only ones that are really separate are a couple of paper pads (the PP on the cast page is one of those) and collection kits I haven't broken down yet. |

Linda, great page for a sad event. I love the banners and the bandaids! Great use of that pretty plaid. I hope she continues to do better with the headaches. She needs bubblewrap!

Linda , I love your kitty photos. Sorry about the cat claws, but you caught a great photo! Love that kitty paw paper. The paw prints on the 2nd page are really sweet. Great job on the hanging banner and the cute title label. ~ I am glad you got photos of the Blimp. I have never seen it except in photos. I love what you did with this sketch. The blue and yellow papers are perfect for this page. Nicely scrapped. grammadee , I just enjoyed your pages up close in the gallery. You have love there. scrappyrabbit, I just caught your page in the gallery too. Love left.
