Thankful by BreetheFlea, on Flickr

I think that paper is Echo park but I have a lot of fall paper and they all start to look the same. I would like to say, can we have a scrapbook fall line without thankful in it? I could make an entire page just with that one word, no one can be THAT thankful
The challenges here are:
#1 gratitude
#9 about you (it's my list...)
#14 it's square
#34 social mixer (3 alphas) 2 pts
#37 random icons ( a bear in a scarf...)
#39 50+ words of journaling
#80 wood
plus making it and posting= 10 pts.

There is no specific reason there are 34 items on the list...it just happened to be what fit on the page

#58 premade words in title

#60 animal antics (if fish count)

I forgot to journal on here... oops.

I have to say I am really enjoying myself with these challenges. Thank you to whoever started this.

breetheflea - I LOVE the Thankful page - I might have to steal that idea. The fishing page is great - that journalling card is perfect! All those greens on Patrol - very nice and a great use of scraps!

grammadee love that rollercoaster paper on What a Ride, it's awesome! Great pictures too. Anniversary Dinner is awesome, love those doilies and your title work is lush! The Parade page is fab, great colours totally make the photos pop. Cheers Ears is great, love the doily mouse ears and I think you've made banners from washi and it looks awesome! That heartbeat paper on Doc McStuffins is adorable and the pirate page is fab too, they're all perfect, your album will be amazing!

Linda the dinosaur paper on Mosh is amazing, way to go getting it on a LO and in an album instead of in the paper stash! It's fab!

DawnMcD your ornament tree is freaking amazing! I am in love with it! If I had shelf space for one I would so be copying that but I have nowhere to put one! I need more shelves! The ornaments are amazing on both versions and you'll have to show us what you do for Christmas please! The pillows are fabulous too, love them both and would love them on my sofa!

breetheflea I love the 34 reasons, how awesome, you should definitely take a Donna equation point for that too cause you clearly sat and thought about what you were thankful for And the fishing LO, I adore that floral paper, it's so lush, great title work too Patrol is amazing, love the colours and your clusters of stars and things are fabulous!

kitbop I love this Christmas layout!!  So perfect!

Oh wow kitbop, I LOVE it! Love the buttons on the tree, the tags and of course the photo turns are amazing! It's gorgeous and an awesome photo too

I've been catching up with 2016! Feels good to start getting those photos in the albums again.

craftykitten you've been busy! Off to leave you some love in the gallery.

This one is a bit different for me. I saw a Pinkfresh collection that had some lovely watercolour leaves and flowers, and I wanted to do something similar, so I drew and painted all the leaves for this by hand and then cut them out. I don't normally do the white background/mixed media thing but I just wanted to give it a try and I really like it!

Wow, I am starting 3 pages behind, so it may take a while to catch up.

CoffeeCrafter, beautiful card. There is love in the gallery. Your cross stitch is wonderful. I loved cross stitching, but my eyes are too old now to enjoy it. You do such tiny fine work.

kiwigirl, your “old” BoBunny background paper is beautiful. I thought you must have made it. I love your cluster of circle embellishments and the circle foil piece. Beautiful.
64 points on one layout? But it looks so clean and classy. You are one amazing scrapper!
I hope you know that.

breetheflea, you have love in the gallery. Love that black and white photo.

JaneB, what a sweet page. There is love in the gallery.

christinec68, How cool to get so many pts. with one layout. I left love in the gallery.

KelleeM, what a great tribute your Team Kellee page is. That looks like such a wonderful group of friends. Beautiful layout with a sweet message. I love the hidden journaling in Far Away Thoughts. She is such a beautiful little girl. It would be fun to know what goes on in those little brains. I love the layering behind her photo. Your Beautiful page is adorable. I love all the embellishments at the edge of the doily. So pretty.

grammadee, I am enjoying your Florida photos. You have love in the gallery.

Linda your Friends page is great. I especially love the design and the use of all the primary colors in it. Perfect for Elementary school friends.- Great design on North Fork. I love the individual squares for each letter down the side. That’s a great technique. -Great paper on the Calculus Study group. It has a heavy look, like the “heavy” subject. Great job with the clock and banner. -Your MOSH page is so interesting. I love museums of ancient times. It looks like everyone is enjoying the visit. I love the dino silhouettes in your next two pages. Great photos you got of the dinos!

kitbop, I always love your style. You have love in the gallery.

craftykitten, you do great PL pages. I wish I could make that system work for me. You have love in the gallery.

I have been helping a friend by using my Silhouette to cut lots of pieces for 100 interactive cards she will be sending to 3 Mexican Orphanages. I am also working on my Christmas cards and will post them when I finish them. I doubt if I will accomplish much else in the scraproom this month.

grammadee - your layouts are a riot of colour and fun and really convey that disney feel in a good way. Love your title work on "I love a parade".
@breetheflea - love the fall page, and the thankful page is absolutely wonderful with the banner and the bear and the pumpkins!
craftykitten - your PL pages are beautifully designed between photos and elements - I especially love "Hello May". Your layouts are all wonderful, but a special shout out to "ventnor botanic gardens" for the amazing photography and lovely use of the background pp, and to "walking to the longstone" for the simple effective grid that lets your eyes feast on the pictures! And of course, "these are lovely days" is amazeballs!!!!!!

stinkerbelle is a freaking star and she sent me a huge box of scrappy goodies including one of the Pinkfresh warehouse boxes and awesome stash from Tuesday Morning so I don't feel left out since I can't shop there! She is the best! 

The Pinkfresh goodies made me scrap straight away! So you got my mojo going again thank you stinkerbelle!

This is another 45 point LO. I wasn't even trying I promise! I thought striving for points might have been stiffling my mojo so I thought I would just do a LO. But when I totted up the points, I had 43. So clearly I had to add two more things to get to 45 didn't I! So I added a clock charm and sequins



Taking 45 for this plus the 10 point bonus, so 55. 1 for a LO, 1 for sharing, #8, #11, #12, #13, #14, #20 BONUS (5), #21, #22, #24, #26, #27, #31, #34, #35, #37, #45, #49, #51, #55, #56 BONUS (10), #57 BONUS (5), #58, #59, #68, #73, #75, #76 BONUS (5) S=stickers, N=Nuvos, O=orange, W=washi, #77, #78, #79, #80 and Bonus Challenge - Handwriting.

Wow, kiwigirl, that is another incredible layout. You are a Points champ. Beautifully done without looking contrived. It is fabulous.
