Do you prefer that we calculate our points with the posted project, or on the other thread where we marked our spots?

I find it easier to calculate points for each page right with the linked page--so here. Then I copy and paste the numbers into the Rules/ calculation thread where I can keep a running total.

Here are two pages from me for today. Will add up their points later.  snow day two '19 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr  Snow day '19 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr I have been itching to scrapbook these photos dd texted me on Thursday. And AussieMeg 's 28-4-28 Day Two challenge gave me the perfect colours. I also attempted kitbop 's mega cluster challenge. Was a little worried this would be over the top on that front--I mean, I could keep piling the elements higher and deeper just like their snow piled in last week--but I think I like the final result. Points: two pages created and shared (4). #3 Day 2 of 28-4-28 (2). #4 hearts (1). #12 date stamp (1). #22 diecut hearts and circles (2). #30 mega cluster (1). #36 winter blues (2 + bonus of 5). #38 torn inked edges (2). #39 phrases (2). #41 rectangular photos (2). #42 square pages (2). #47 single photo (1). #48 chipboard (2). #49 PL cards (2).

I love it grammadee! The blues are gorgeous. Funny, when I saw AussieMeg 's pallettes I was drawn to the wintery ones too. Probably because it's the current colour of my world  And yes, my mission is life is to get peas to not be afraid of the cluster  With the restful space you've left in other parts of the page, it doesn't look too cluttered at all! |

grammadee, I love your snow page, but they make me cold. brr. I guess the blues and elements worked well then, huh. Actually I love the kids playfulness and it reminds me of when mine were little. Now they're less likely to build forts and such. Happy Birthday: Love your title work on this page. jeremysgirl, BUILD: WOW! I need chairs that well built too! Your daughter did a fantastic job! I love the way you captured the story with the pink, the title work, and the sewed border. BRRRR: what a sweet pupper! I like the grid style and the work labels. So cute. AussieMeg, Walkerville, I love the simplicity of the layout. It's a beautiful beach. Also a great color challenge. Inverloch: beautiful page! I love the top cluster!!! and your patterns. kitbop, So Lucky: that you shared such a fab layout. I love everything! I just keep looking and looking. Did you just doodle a border and mist the back white cardstock? The smaller whites with the hearts and doodles, did you stamp? nylene, december 25: Beautiful family and page. Great patterns and layers. Forever: So pretty and lets the photo shine.

' Old Fashioned Winter Snow Day': Oh, that blue wood grain paper with the delicate snowflake print on the edge is so pretty (and absolutely perfect for those memories)! It's really nice to see the mega cluster in action as it's a little scary to attempt.  Thanks for leading the way! Did you use letter stickers with a clear background for spelling out 'fashioned'? I see a faint, shadowy outline and I'm intrigued. ' Get Outside': Love-love-love the storytelling dynamic with the placement of the photos. Cutting the pattern papers into hills was genius (and I noticed that you made that "housey" hill connect to the snow pile in the photo! #attentiontodetails). I'm digging those connecting rectangles, by the way and their vertical to horizontal flow: it gives great energy to the page. The pattern paper used for the sky portion of your LO is gorgeous.  ' Happy Birthday': Black backgrounds are hard to do but you managed it beautifully!  I love how it resonates with the video call photos on the black tablet/mini laptop. Kudos on snapping those photos, by the way. This is what our lives are about these days and we absolutely should keep memories of how things have evolved and how wonderful it is to have our loved ones just an Internet call away. I adore all the stars (not just on the paper). And I smiled when I was how you spelled out 73 (or I'm assuming it says 7 - III with single candles). This double LO looks as comfortable and magical as the celebration seemed to have been.
' Build': I got such Neapolitan vibes when I saw your LO and it made me lust for summer days (and lounging in beautiful chairs like the one you posted). I love how you extrapolated the colours from the photo and then added complementing colours (soft pink and teal). I agree that Chloe did an amazing job with her first chair! Would love to relax in one with an ice-cream as soon as the weather (finally) heats up again. ' Brrrrr': Is that Freezin' Season by Simple Stories I'm spotting? I almost bought the ephemera and chipboard from that line, almost. I really tried to hard to resist (and somehow managed). I love the story of Amelia coming inside for a different kind of warm up session.  The four square design on a square page looks great, by the way.
Will be back a little later tonight for more commenting on everyone's beautiful creations. Netflix is waiting for one more episode before we start winding down for the night.

dasmith2, I love the angled pp and how you have the bike riding the slope. Your layering with the doilies and flowers is really pretty. Good job covering up the “oops”. I have always said, that’s what embellishments are for!

dasmith2, I love the dark teal in your layout. The design is so cool with the slanted dotted paper. I love the chipboard bicycle and the pretty flowers. That doily is a great touch. Clean and classy layout. KikiPea, I love your birthday layout. It looks like your puppy is enjoying his b-day.I love your banners in the corner and the filmstrip along the bottom. Cute little candles with sparkly flames. Love it.

KikiPea, I love the birthday pup page! Such happy colours and the scattering of elements gives it a real party feel. Thinking I might want to lift your page AND its inspiration! I will leave you love in the Gallery, nylene, but I love the formal look to your page. Perfect for a graduation page. Wow, dasmith2, I LOVE that rainbow of colours with the black! And that little cluster with the hearts is really cute. So good to see you scrapping.

grammadee, I missed the Grandpa Birthday page yesterday. I didn't see it at all. I love the title work on the cake design and the layers with that blue flag. dasmith2, I must have already pulled up to reply before you posted as yours wasn't there. and if you look at the time difference, yes, it does take me a long time to post. I had to stop several times, administer ds a test, make and run food to sick dd, etc. I love the triangle borders and how you still made the page soft and feminine. Fantastic cluster with the photo connected too. Is that you with your kids? If so you look young enough to be a sibling. Ukelele: such dramatic colors. They really pop on the black. Love it. KikiPea, I'm 7 Today: Super adorable. I love everything about the layout. I just keep going back and looking. I'll have to scraplift this layout. nylene, Bridging: What a cool experience and way to commemorate going up a level! You did a fantastic job on the layout commemorating the experience too. @

The four square design on a square page looks great, by the way.
