There is love on Flickr, scrappyrabbit . I was lucky enough to have the time to join mom for her on line crop this morning. Managed to finish a couple of two-pagers. This first is based on jediannie 's Sketchy Saturday challenge from this past weekend. It really helped me scrap my dSIL's celebration of life. I attached a folder to the back of the second page to house the Eulogy and the church pamphlet.  Saying Goodbye by Gramma Dee, on Flickr Once that LO was done, I was able to put together a quick two-pager of the evening event from the same day POINTS: four pages (80), created & shared (8). Twenty photos for the Donna challenge (20). W/T-9 eulogy in a pocket behind, W/T/15 memories & Music, C/M-7 monochrome, C/M-9 black background, T-16 file pocket on back of page. Total: 113

Wow, you really are getting a lot of photos scrapped grammadee! I’ve dropped some cards into various CARDtober challenge threads but these are just some random cards I finished. The ones without sentiments will probably get a “thinking of you” message inside. I find it amusing to imagine what the tigers are thinking about when they think of you   October share by jo.blackford, on Flickr I also finished this small lap/baby blanket with leftover yarn from the Attic24 Sungold kit. The stitch design is an interlocking ripple in a colorwash. I made up my own border, which is why it’s taken me ages to finish. I prefer just to follow instructions in my crochet. I have enough thinking to do in other parts of my life!  October share by jo.blackford, on Flickr |

This is the first LO I've done this quarter that isn't a current Sketchtember or Sketchy Saturday LO. Although.... it is actually using an old sketch from April last year.  |

I needed to stamp another batch of thank you note cards to go out with the Hummels I'm selling. Almost all of the feedback I've gotten on eBay mentions the handwritten thank you notes I include  Working at Nordstrom and selling via Etsy taught me how much people like to get a little thank you scrawl with their purchase. I tried using a different stamp and color this time.  12 notecards by jo.blackford, on Flickr |

Linda , I love the attitude in that #30 kitty photo! And such fun colours with the pic's of the cat in the bag. And then there is the Thumper page later: you really need a sub heading "Letting the Cat out of the Bag". The butterfly life cycle page is AMAZING! Such great photos and pretty background pp. Love your purple hexagons. Your pic's of family togetherness in past years are awesome, and I love that you have scrapped them with older papers that seem to vibe with them so well. Love all the layered circles, the stars--so many fun elements. And speaking of perfect papers, that Happy Trails layout with the wood grain and tree borders is awesome! AussieMeg , @angel07701, scrappyrabbit , justjac , there is love on Flickr. craftymom101 this is a delectible fall page, a perfect combo of cute photos and fun scrappy elements!

two more cards made during this morning's crop #12 - I struggled and struggled with the starburst and finally gave up and copied jjpeapea's pinwheel design which still took several tries to work out.  #19  |

I did also - I cut and measured and pouted. I gave up several times and finally got something close. |

gramma - thank you for sharing that it was hard for you as well. There was definitely frustration and pouting here also.

 Summer Olympics by BreeTheFlea, on Flickr I made this page yesterday. It looks nothing like the original plan in my head, but at least I got a map of France and an Eiffel Tower on there. |

So much to catch up on! Promise I will be coming back to look at all the fun cards and pages here and in the Gallery! And over the next few days I will be adding in the cards and pages I put together during this weekend's LSS crop (22 cards and 19 pages). Will start tonight by linking here the six cards I added to the Gallery on Friday. Starting with three cards for two CARDtober challenges--for #24 and 25:  Ct 24 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr  Ct 25 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr and here are three more Christmas cards, playing with the supplies I had out on the hotel room desk...
And here are cards I linked directly to CARDtober #26 and 27 through TapaTalk...

Working at Nordstrom and selling via Etsy taught me how much people like to get a little thank you scrawl with their purchase. I tried using a different stamp and color this time.
