myboysnme , you always amaze me with how many pages you can create in one weekend! I love all the different looks. So great that you are scrapping all those retro looking photos of your adventures 40 years ago, and you have the perfect papers and extras to showcase the pic's. I think my favorites are Soaking up the Sun (love the realistic water bg and that funky sun) and the Halloween page (love the blocking of title/journaling/photo on that orange spooky background). The road trip pages are great too. Love that you used scenic background on the one set and the map on another. And KelleeM, your weekend was definitely a success as well. Will you be posting these pages in the Gallery? Would love to look at them each in detail.

I have finally finished the page I have been working on for almost a week. I have been keeping a little journal of all the funny things Alex says. I had put off scrapping it for a year because I didn't know how I would do all that journaling.When I saw this "speech bubble" cut file I knew what I wanted to do. I cut the file twice and sandwiched patterned paper and typed vellum journaling between them. This ended up being a many point layout, so I loaded on a bit more and made it a mega-point layout.  Alex-isms #6 Stamps, #8 Buttons #10 Quotes #11 Brads, #12 Washi tape, #13 Rectangle, #20 Nuvos #21 5 diff embellishments types, #22 Puffy stickers, #24 Smilie #25 Donna with equation-6pts, #26 Gold frame #27 Current photo-taken in Oct=2pts, #29 Die cutting, #30 Food-2 speech bubbles about food, #33 Specialty paper-vellum, #35 5 brands of paper pads-Dear Lizzy, Pebbles, Studio Cal, Bazzill, EP=5pts, #37 Hedgehog, #39 over 50 words, #40 Grid, #49 Flower, #50 Punches, #51 6x6 paper pads for bubbles,#52 Stitches, embossed and in buttons, #55 Pop Dots, #64 Frame, #65 5 diff. patterned papers, #67 Paper clip, #68 Blue bird, #73 Arrow clip, #75 Clock brad, #76 Wooden snowflake + Silhouette, Nuvo, Orange background, Washi tape= 6pts, #77 Enamel Dot, #78 Sequins, #79 Silver Stars#80 Wood. one page completed and posted +53 + 10 Bonus = 63 pts.
Now to catch up on comments on all your beautiful projects.

I love your titles, myboysnme. Wonderful that you are documenting so many of your early experiences. I think my favorite of these is the voting page with the voting pin attached. |

myboysnme , I am so impressed with the number of layouts you did. You have been a busy scrapper. I love the variety in your pages and especially love the older (1970's) photos that you scrapped so well. I find those older photos hard to scrap because of their color, but you have done a great job with them. Congratulations! kiwigirl, your DT layouts look so intriguing. I am always impressed by your Nuvo abilities. I just used a few on a layout and they didn’t come out very well. I guess I need practice. Beautiful work! KelleeM , I am amazed at all you got accomplished. Your pages are beautiful and so individually designed. I love the photos at the Grand Canyon. As close as I live, I have never been there. Wonderful birthday banners, Halloween, party and family activities. You are a speedy scrapper! The I Love You page is totally gorgeous. That is a delightful little gal. myboysnme , I just read that you did 62 pages in a weekend??? That seems impossible to me. You have done some wonderful pages. I love seeing your handwriting on each one. You have great titles and every page is well designed. I would love to know the secret of getting so much done! Everyone who posts in the gallery has love from me.

You have great titles and every page is well designed. I would love to know the secret of getting so much done! Thank you! I actually was at a retreat so it was 3 days, not just 2. I started around noon on Friday and finished around 3 on Sunday. I scrapped until 10 pm Fri and Sat. As for how I get so many done, I look at my photos, go through my stash and pull things that meet the theme for the photos and anything that might work. Then when I am scrapping I pull the photos and whatever I brought that I could use, and scrap the page. My goal is to get the pages done so I don't try to get artistic or fancy. I just use what I have and move along! |

This LO is for the Lyrics & Music challenge. Ever since I started scrapbooking when my daughter was a baby, I have wanted to do a LO using these song lyrics, because they fit so well (except for the bit about wishing her hair was much darker, because her hair was actually so much darker than we expected!). The kit is 'Welcome to the World' by Kimeric Kreations, as well as other bits and pieces that I forgot to keep track of. The song is "A Little Ray of Sunshine" by Axiom. It was written in 1970, which is the year my sister was born (and DD's middle name is my sister's name). I have always loved the song. ETA: There is a line in the song "I want to know if you think she looks good in the pink her grandma has bought her". The pink dress that DD is wearing in the photo was bought by her grandma.  Points: 1 for doing a LO, 1 for sharing, #6 Stamps, #8 Haberdashery, #10 Wordsmith, #11 Metal Worker, #12 Sticky situation, #13 Rectangles, #14 Squares, #15 Mixing Bowl, #20 Nuvos, #21 Embellishing 101, #38 Old photo, #40 Layers, #49 Flower Power, #52 In Stitches, #64 Frame It, #65 See the Pattern, #68 Put a bird on it, #70 Lyrics & Music, #77 Put a dot on it, #79 Slivers of Silver TOTAL = 22 points |

Here's one I got to work on this weekend so far. It's been a week of cooking and cleaning with Thanksgiving so I haven't been able to relax at all until now!

This LO is for the "Let it Snow" challenge for November. I used the 'Beautiful Memories Vol 62' template by Indigo Designs and the 'Let it Snow' kit by Neia Scraps Designs.

And no I didn't claim a bonus point for the kit name.  |
