working on DD18's First Communion pictures - she had just turned 7. I've covered up the best part of this layout - all of her expressions as she waited in Church for Mass to begin. And yes - I know the eyelets are crooked but they are just going to have to stay that way because they are on good and snug.  |

This is a fun one and not the best picture taken by me of the layout,as it doesn't look so clear and straight, but it is. I had fun using the pink paislee washi strips instead of paper on this.  6A01889A-4626-4D57-84D6-36425F12E48B by lisa h, on Flickr |

KelleeM - Your take on the sketch is awesome! Is your strip of tickets paper or washi? It’s patterned paper from Echo Park. I don’t know the name of the collection but I can check for you. |

MDscrapaholic, those Halloween pages are awesome! I love the plaid, and all the rich colours and fun icons. That string art heart is AMAZING, Chinagirl828! Your pages are sweet, Linda. I love the classic patterns and icons. That little paper doll is adorable. KelleeM, your construction pages are great. So masculine. I love all those metal tool elements. And what a great idea to scrap a wall decoration in progress! Great take on the PageMaps sketch. And that house paper is PERFECT for your moving in page. I like that you used the plain grey to separate the busy pp from the photos. Your wedding photos are GORGEOUS, justlisa7. And your pages really do them justice. Love the chipboard and wood elements on the one I can see on this page. Glad you are figuring out the posting. Not sure what happened to that second photo. I NEED to put together one birthday card and at least one thank you card tomorrow. And I printed a bunch of photos today, so hope I can get at least one page completed. Wish me luck!

Chinagirl828 I totally missed your LO yesterday for some reason, but wow, wow, wow! So awesome! I love the soft colours you use and the lush layering under the photo, so beautiful! Linda love your butterflies and gingham, they eyelets do look great and wow, how pretty is she in her holy communion dress! Love the dress on the LO too, so cute! KelleeM love those tools, they're so cool and wow, the workshop looks great finished! I also love how you have so many photos and still room for your journalling too, looks great. Your wall art looks wonderful and I love that little line of tickets across the LO, looks so pretty with the flowers too. justlisa7 WOW! Loving your wedding LOs, they look amazing! I love how you've embellished both of the LOs, they are nice and simple to showcase the wonderful photos but stunning as well. Fabulous work, I'm glad you're sharing! Good luck getting a LO done grammadee!

JaneB love your be kind but fierce page! The photo is great  and I really like the texture in the background and cute little pink bow! kiwigirl I’m so looking forward to the reveal of your DT pages! The sneaks are killing me  those parentheses look amazing! MDscrapaholic still loving your Halloween pages! I just love the photo on the first one and the fun overlapped labels and little hexie accents  again with the gorgeous hexagons on the next page; such a fun pattern and I love how you used a big chunk of it as the background! the nuvo borders look fab! I really love the addition of the circle photo on the third page and the plaid just makes the last page; totally love the boldness for your background! the doodly border and scattered tiny word stickers are the perfect touches Chinagirl828 I’m wondering if it’s possible for you to make an ugly page. This one  love the string art, of course, but all the little touches like the mixed media and layers behind the photo, the stitching and scruffy edges, and the gold butterflies just make this a show-stopper! Linda glad to see you’re still on a roll! Loving all the fun everyday moments you’re capturing but my favorite has to be the curls page; my grandma used to put my hair in rag rollers and I loved it the series of communion pages are just lovely; I especially like the one with all the adorable embellies; lovely colors and great ratio of photos to “fun stuff” and I really like the subtle texture on the spread titled “1st communion” and that you added more texture with the torn edges! KelleeM I really like the neutral colors on your phase 3 spread and those cute little tools are just too adorable! I really like the color scheme on the home page too (and are those old Heidi swapp rubons for the title? Like kiwigirl’s parentheses, those have to predate the ark! Wtg!), and the ribbons behind the title and little cluster at the top! Thanks for posting the great sketch! Definitely the perfect paper for the move in day page! I like how the solid piece resembles a house to add to the theme justlisa7 hmm I’m beginning to think you’re incapable of ugly pages too! I like the circle whatsit behind the photo; just the perfect bit of interest and texture and it goes so well with the colors in the florals and wood title piece! Gorgeous page! Unfortunately I can’t see the second one posted, but I’m sure it’s beautiful as well  Good luck grammadee!

stinkerbelle ...the rub ons are Making Memories. I have a LOT of them! And they are from way before the ark. The house on the Move In page is the same shape as our townhouse...I thought I was pretty clever but until I post pictures no one would know!!

not quite happy with this one but I'm done moving bits of it around so into the album it goes. The title is an ancient (c. late 1990s) CADD topper - dug deep into my stash for that one, lol.  |

LOVE FOR PAGE 10 (Yeah, I'm way behind) MDscrapaholic, Breakfast with Mickey: Love the cutout mickey face and the line border around it and the little red enamel dots on the black cardstock corners. kiwigirl, Steal it Challenge: I think you did a fab job on the steal it challenge layout. You made it your own with your nuvo borders. I love the colors and the pattern paper and the layered butterfly on the center PL card. KIS Layout: WOW! I need to go fave that one in the gallery. Love the mixed media, all the bits and bobs, and the photos. My Star: LOL! I love shakers, why would you want to go with the smallest one? Your page turned out wonderful. Linda, RSV Layout: Sharing is definitely not caring in that instance. But it's such a pretty page for such a yuck thing to have. I like your brad placement on the middle border and your butterfly. JOY, Tiny Blessings: Awe...That's such a sweet page, it makes me want to go hold babies. The checked background matches the check on the baby outfit ruffle perfectly. Congrats on finishing the baby albums! Soccer Award: July: Uncle John: & Momma Milch: Love the design and the colors on each of these layouts. Cousins: & Mama Made: Not only do I love the colors and design, but also the little embellishments you added are so cute. patin, A Boy and His Legos: LOVE this page. I love the title work, your background paper and how you cut the border, and the lego pieces. I so need to copy this one for photos of my ds with his legos from yesteryear. Engagement Party: Beautiful and elegant pages. I love the little clusters of sequins (so going to do that), the heart 'love' element and the soft, romatic papers that you used. stinkerbelle, WildWest: great job on your lift. Fabulous papers and I want that 'yee haw'. I have no use for it, just really like it. Hello Mr Happy: ROFL: I love that cup that Mr Happy is leaning on. What a fun tradition to have started! Now that's a Christmas Tree: That is a Christmas Tree! Love that Santa and your tags. Punkd on my birthday: Love the little llama. Great papers too. Unfashionable at the Park: But you were in high fashion for the time period! Why did all of our clothes in the 70s early 80s have to be that polyester junk?! I love the little cloud shakers, the gnome paper border and the rosette with butterfly. Grandma Martha Love: Love your layers and paper choices here. Silly Moments: those colors really pop against the black background. Beautiful, beautiful page! Freshman Fabulous:LOVE! Love the arrow paper background, the title, the orange scallop running under the photos, the stamping and misting, and all the little bits. I hope to work on page 11 later today. |

MDscrapaholic, it looks like I missed your Disney pages when I commented last time. Love them. I intend to print them off to use as inspiration for the many Disney pages in my future! Linda, I love the quilt block look of your Grandma's Pal page. And I like how you used the blue pp on the Family pages. Good to see some pages from you, woodysbetty. Must feel good in the midst of all the moving decisions and work. Love how you use banners to anchor photos and other elements. LOVE the quotes! Did you type them on, or were they already on the paper you chose? stinkerbelle, you have been BUSY!!! I don't think that shaker page is a fail at all! Love it! Will leave some detailed comments on all your fun pages in the Gallery.

Linda love how you’re using those moldy oldy CADD toppers! I really like the color blocking on the first page woodysbetty I think funerals are the worst and I have refused to go since I was in high school. Hope your day brightens up a bit, hugs! Love your furbabies page! That echo park paper with the viewmaster reel thingies is one of my favorite papers ever. I really like how you piled all the color on top of it! On your yoga grad page, I love how you accented the butterflies and layered up all kinds of goodness around your photo! grammadee love all the mixed media on page one, and the cute little superhero cape and mask! Page 2 has that awesome die again, love that thing. I really like the torn black cs and journal card to match the facing page. Your balloon card is so fun! Love that simple stories collection. I really like the thank you card; just messy enough to be awesome!

Who's ready for the final push? I'm hoping to get a bit more done. My patio/ramp is finished but it keeps raining so I've not been out to take photos yet. woodysbetty so sorry about your loss  I ought to mention that in the art journal page that photo of me pulling a face wasn't really because I was mad. I had an itchy nose and because it's not easy for me to reach to scratch it I wiggle it instead Ian thought it was funny and made me do it again for the photo - although I probably look like that quite frequently these days! |

Thanks to 
and I really like the texture in the background and cute little pink bow!
those parentheses look amazing!
again with the gorgeous hexagons on the next page; such a fun pattern and I love how you used a big chunk of it as the background! the nuvo borders look fab! I really love the addition of the circle photo on the third page and the plaid just makes the last page; totally love the boldness for your background! the doodly border and scattered tiny word stickers are the perfect touches 
love the string art, of course, but all the little touches like the mixed media and layers behind the photo, the stitching and scruffy edges, and the gold butterflies just make this a show-stopper!
definitely clever to use the shape of the condo and i can't wait to see those photos
