joblackford - they are all very pretty and I bet you're able to use scraps and such! Thank you. Yes! and part of the reason they're all a little different is that I'm constantly mixing and matching the negative space pieces, trying not to waste any good sized pieces of cardstock. |

I think I'm done with Christmas cards for now I have more of the printable cards but nothing else that works with them colourwise  These are from a 2019 Sheetload sketch (plus one oddball using up bits and bobs)  |

All your Christmas cards are wonderful Linda  I spy at least one Sheetload sketch. They're all very festive and will be enjoyed a lot, I'm sure. |

I am way behind in leaving love here. I will start just above this post and then work backwards. joblackford your NOEL cards are all wonderful! I love all the choices you have made to decorate the insides and mat them. They look so elegant and pretty! I have not picked up any of the bigger sentiment dies, but thinking I really need to get my hands on one or two... And OMG that 3-D embossing on gold is AMAZING! And you found the perfect focal for that Blessings card: love the depth the embossing gives that poinsettia. Linda, you have done a wonderful job with the printables and cut aparts. I love the different designs and colour combo's you used. Same with your vacation pages on page seven: each unique and perfectly colour coordinated, each elegant in its simplicity, yet full of interest to look at. craftymom101 your Recipes page is delicious! Love how the mint/pink of the papers shows off your yummy baking. Mmmmm... And of course I love the layering and how you do clusters. Speaking of clusters, oh my! That brothers page on page seven is stunning with what you did with the leaves. My fall pages are all over the top colour, but I love how subtle the colours are on this one. And I love how you did a Disney page with the teals and yellows, with just a few pops of red to pull out that Minnie bow. @rhymeswithpurple that blocked out page looks wonderful! Did you start with a background cs with the squares already embossed into it? Or is all of that done with tiny squares? That photo is the perfect one to use with that design. Will you put the title and journaling in that square in the middle? |

grammadee Thank you! The lines are printed on -- it's a pre-gridded page from SnapnCrop/Mosaic Moments (https://www.snapncrop.com/grid_paper). They also now have a plastic grid template so you can use all paper, not just theirs. I plan on adding a photo my husband and me in the middle, and some patterned paper above and below the pictures.

Thanks to kitbop for hosting a crop tonight - I got some more Christmas cards (and one birthday card) made. I still need to find and add a sentiment to one more card    |

If you were the oversized photo prints I ordered, where would you be? 😩
I did a ton of scrapbooking this weekend and those are the only ones I need to add and I can't for the life of me find them.

Thanks, linda. Me too. Ugh. In the meantime... here's a two-page spread I did of our visit to the Independence Seaport Museum. (I did ask Santa for a Canvas lamp for Christmas, so one day I'll be able to take better pictures of my pages.)  |

Love that color scheme Linda - very cute cards! I finished up a couple more Hanukkah cards with the Sheetload sketch. I typed my sentiment up on my computer to fit a circle die I had, tried a few different fonts out, and tried it with and without a navy halo. I used my inks to color the pink mat for the lower card. Love that CP pads come with ink suggestions - I wouldn't have known which pink to use otherwise.  Dec share x3 by jo.blackford, on Flickr |

I had decided to do the same thing grammadee is, start here and work backward. Linda and joblackford I love all of your cards! joblackford you had such a variety of Noel's! Linda a lego Walmart would be awesome to see, and I love that page design for that page, the SG cut-aparts cut a part so smoothly lol. rymeswithpurple that circle on the grid is very eye catching! The touches of blue help draw the eye to the photos. |

joyfulnana Thank you! I went for a red, white, and blue theme for this scrapbook since many of our day trips involved the Philadelphia area. It seemed appropriate.

(I did ask Santa for a Canvas lamp for Christmas, so one day I'll be able to take better pictures of my pages.) That's such a cool design! I haven't seen anything like that before. A great way to use lots of pictures while highlighting the most important ones. PS hope Santa brings you that Canvas lamp. I love mine in this dark season. |

Wow, grammadee! Paper gingerbread cards and the real thing too? I have a recipe for a gingerbread loaf cake that I want to try because I don't think I'm up to doing cookies, but I'm so lazy about baking. I love your cheerful little die cuts, and your adorable snowman too. |
