Thank you nylene - I've taken a scrappy weekend and am doing an online crop (on FB) This one is based on a Debbie Sanders sketch - PP and die cut are Echo Park, hearts are die cut  This one is inspired by an Allison Davis sketch  I used my very last piece from my favourite Club Scrap kit (c.2001) for this one - butterflies are die cut, larger ones are pop-dotted, alphas are October Afternoon. Journalling pulls out from the top   |

I finally finished my first pages for my PL album. I'm not doing one week to a double page spread this year, I'm just adding whatever photos fit. This layout covers the 1st to the 5th of January.  |

I chose to scraplift this layout from kitbop for challenge T-16 Lift a Pea! Stickers are Echo Park Gingerbread Christmas and Paper Studio, candy cane border was a RAK from kmage , journalling spot was die cut. I'm not nearly as creative or as adept with clusters as kitbop but she definitely inspired me to add more stuff than usual to my layout.  |

Cool Linda - thanks for scraplifting *me*! I love the rolling pin/candy cane/gingerbread man triangele, and the layers of the tags! That would also "tick" the 3 tag challenge this quarter - even tho you can't see them all, it's obvious they're there. |

These were both made starting with my challenges for 28-4-28 in mind. Hoping I get more examples made for February...if not, you'll be seeing these again  This was done for the "monochromatic" challenge this month. OK, it's not quite monochromatic, but I think I stuck to the colour "sunset" fairly well!  layout sunset sweethearts by kirstendrew, on Flickr For this one, I immediately planned to use the Vicky B "sweet shop" line because I knew I needed candy icons. And when I went into my vicky stash, I found the rainbow wreath I had cut the centre out of for a previous page, and decided to start with it. The photo? Pure happy circumstance: we were doing silly stuff with our leftover Christmas chocolates (  ) and the cat walked in front and stretched! I used a foam dauber to add distress oxide ink to my thickers to make the coordinate with the layout.  layout bow down before the candy altar by kirstendrew, on Flickr |

Not really being a scrapper, I have no idea how exactly to comment on layouts. I feel badly about that and wish I could just post in the card sharing thread, but I think it has to be here to get the sharing point in the challenge.

I feel badly about that and wish I could just post in the card sharing thread, but I think it has to be here to get the sharing point in the challenge. commenting is completely optional so no feeling badly about that. Some people never comment, some comment when something catches their eye, some try to comment on everything, some just click the 'like' button - it's all good. I'll let grammadee confirm but I think you can get the sharing point wherever you share on the boards - card thread, a challenge thread, here...just one point per project whether you share in one thread or several. I do hope you'll keep sharing your cards here though - I know I'm enjoying seeing them and I don't make it over to the stamping/cardmaking board as often as i would like. |

Yes, Shakti, that is the way the sharing points work. You have to share at least once to earn the point. You can share in multiple places, but you can claim only one sharing point per page or card or.... |

Doodlebug chipboard alphas, Bella Blvd sticker, punched hearts  No idea on the paper - dh bought a big pile of it from a thrift store - Pinkfresh alphas, die cut alphas  Family PP is Bella Blvd and so are the hearts, background paper is ??, grid is actually Pinkfresh packaging, alphas are October Afternoon, stickers are Photoplay, and 'smile' is cut from a cut-apart card  Dug deep in my stash for this PP (Carolees) and stickers (Scrapbooktimes) -I think they're at least as old as DD16 and quite possibly a bit older.  Last one for the weekend - Recollections PP, Echo Park sticker, Meow is stamped  |

Linda, your banners on Oh Happy Day are a perfect match to your floral paper. ~ Cute bird photos. That plane is cool, is it yours? ~ I love, love, love the photo of you and the beautiful use of that last piece of paper. Your journaling is so heartfelt and informative. You will be glad you did this in a few years....and forever.~ Your gingerbread page is so well designed and I agree with kitbop, that the triangle of embellishments works so well. ~ Great use of lack and white with just a pop of red on your games night.~ Great torn waves with white caps for your boat cards. Perfect background. You have been a busy beaver. Did you get most of these done at your Crop? AussieMeg, grammadee, and kitbop, you have love in the gallery. Shakti, your cards are lovely. I love the Asian-looking prints that you used. My DD worked in Tokyo and we were able to go visit her, so I have a real love for Asian art. Thanks for sharing, and please continue. Linda, you got more finished before I got this posted! As always, you have such cute kitty pages. ~I love the gingerbread boy banner and the gingerbread houses. That stripe is a great pick. ~ I always enjoy your photos with your cats. Love those cute Doodlebug letters. ~ That paper your DH bought makes three nice matching mats. Very pretty.~ Wonderful family photos. I’m sure you loved having them all at home. ~ Nice way to document new glasses. You last kitty photo is so cute. I can’t read the journaling, but it looks like the treat bag is calling!

That plane is cool, is it yours? the plane in the bird photos? Those are all in DH's hobby room and the plane is Lego. You last kitty photo is so cute. I can’t read the journaling, but it looks like the treat bag is calling "Last Christmas, Dusty and Paddington received a crinkle Santa sack. They took one look at it and nope, not for them. I pulled it back out this year. I caught them checking it out once but otherwise they’ve ignored it." Thank you for all your sweet comments nylene |

And the bride’s favorite flower is hydrangea. Although her wedding was in the fall, I felt like this paper somehow pulled both “fall” and “hydrangea” for her! |

gina, I love your pocket page. Your individual pockets are little works of art. I love all the metallic touches, pineapple, watermelon, flair. So many colors that tie your whole page together with the photos. Beautiful job. Your Marathon page is so interesting. I love the use of the metal, the race tag and especially all the journaling that gives the whole story. Fabulous page. This is my latest.  Little Drummer Boy

Had fun playing with the new Neon Hockey line from Scrapbook Customs, and managed to add in a few bits and pieces from a new PinkFresh line: POINTS: ten 12x12 pages (200), created & shared (20). Thirty one photos scrapped for the Donna challenge (31). W/T-3 punny (1). Total: 252.
