Another cool way to use a Christmas tree cutout, pantsonfire! Love the traditional colours and the starburst behind the tag. |

Sorry for the photo dump- I haven’t posted for a while and I’ve been scrapping away.   I used a Not Just for Boys Limitless kit for these two. I love this kit and have a lot of product left so expect more from this one. |

Two from another NJFB kit:   I was in love with that plaid paper. I’m also on a tearing streak, for some reason. |

And now for something completely different:  I bought this paper (reminisce) just to scrap these photos. If you are ever in Central Ohio go to Otherworld. It is really cool. |

 My friend loves leopard print, so I dug out some very old Heidi Swapp. |

  More baby photos- the kids are 18 and 19 now- I definitely don’t scrap in chronological order. The top one is Doodlebug- not my usual style of paper at all, but still the tearing. The bottom one is a NJFB kit. |

 This is this month’s NJFB kit and I’m not in love with this layout, for some reason. I can’t put my finger on it but this isn’t working for me. |

 This is another NJFB kit. It is way too busy but I like it anyway. I loved the stencil that came in the kit. |

Are you getting tired of me yet? I’ll remember to pace myself next time.  Yet another NJFB kit. I don’t usually do the layout directions that come with the kit but I relied heavily on it this time. |

 Old photos of my parents. Mom died in 2014 and I miss her so much. This is Carte Bella. I love their textured papers. |

 This is Stamperia’s Bauhaus. I absolutely loved that paper and I figured it was so tricky that I'd never use it, just admire it. 😂 But I did use it and I quite like this layout. Okay, I’ll stop now and save some for later. |

Loving all your pages, artbabe! So glad you took the time to share them. Love what you did with that Limitless kit. The subtle layering on the top page is the perfect break between the photo block and the pretty background. And the torn edges and doilies are a wonderful touch in the "Just Me" page. Love your selfies. I always hate and usually delete mine, LOL. Your little boy pages are really cute (as are the photos). Love the torn edges and choice of papers. Great titles--love the simple wording and presentation. Your Otherworld photos are amazing, and you definitely bought the perfect paper to display them on! Love the layering on the In the Leaves page: creates a pile of paper for the little guy to throw himself in. The Sarah page is pretty. Did you fussy cut those flowers to balance the strip of floral pp along the left? I like the photos cascading down the page with the one highlighted with matting. Your 7th grade page has a timeless look. No wonder this is your go-to sketch--it is a classic! Looks like you are having tons of fun scrapping baby pic's of those strapping young men. Great job with those soft blues & yellows faced with the layered page with the darker more dramatic pp's. Love the series of holiday pages from the little guy wondering what is going on (with the photo backed with the cute background pp) through to the fun wild colours on the drinks pages and the soft foliage to back the Cedar Falls pic's. I don't think that boy's page with the black stenciling is too busy: looks very teen boyesque. Those last two pages use classic design and fun papers wonderfully. Love your clustered elements on the bottom right of each. And that Living with Art page is stunning against that dark background. Thanks again for sharing your pages: they are wonderful. |

grammadee, thank you so much for taking the time to comment on them. I need to do more commenting- I really enjoy everyone's pages. I just get behind- I need to get out some paper and take notes so I can comment on each one. Just know that I appreciate everyone's pages very much. Yes, I did fussy cut the flowers on the Sarah page. I don't think I have any embellishments to go with that line so I had to improvise. Heidi Swapp makes such pretty papers but I am never thrilled with her embellishments- a lot of times it is a sticker book and that is it. Things I noticed from this photo dump: I am obsessed with tearing lately, my design choices and paper companies are all over the place, and I really love Not Just For Boys kits. Also, I go out drinking with friends a lot. Hey, I'm 56, single, and childless- my life lends itself to going out. Also, now you all know what I look like. I love seeing all of your layouts so I can put faces with pea names. Grammadee, you need to scrap some selfies. You should celebrate yourself. I enjoyed meeting you on our zoom scrapbook days- I need to show up for those more.

I love that your design and paper choices are "all over the place"! It will make your scrapbooks fun and engaging to page through. I hope to be able to join in more of the weekend on line crops, too, this winter, maybe get back to a Sunday morning spot. I will work on my selfie skills  |

artbabe I love your pages! You have a nice variety of papers, themes, etc. I like some of your unique papers, like the bauhaus one and the martini one! If you haven’t already, joining the Flickr group is a nice way to keep up on posting and commenting so you can look at each layout in detail.

grammadee- Thirteen photos! That is amazing. I really love your style of scrapping. The sunflower embellishments and paper are beautiful. scrappyrabbit - I love the deer paper on your first layout. I think the color combination in We're Off! is really cool. And so many nice photos of parks!

Not my cleanest glue job, but you can't tell too much.  I may try to make another with vellum. |

My pages are being shared out of order, because I needed to add the title to this one when I got home from Thanksgiving. I kept this page fairly simple due to the stunning vistas that I simply could not get enough of. I almost could have made the whole album just photos of the million dollar highway. I also created a little tiktok of that drive. If you are ever in Colorado, it is a must see.  Million dollar highway by scrappy rabbit, on Flickr |
