Will come back and leave love in a bit. Here is the first LO I have accomplished since the crop:  Escape Adventure by Gramma Dee, on Flickr This one played with my MIND! The Escape Room titles sparked my imagination, and I had grandiose plans for how I was going to represent them. The resulting pages look nothing like I pictured them in my head, but surprisingly, I think I like the LO. Points: two pages created and shared (4). #4 (22) + bonus for vertical line (5). #11 Silhouette cutfiles (1). #12 green pp (1). #14 rectangular photos (2). #15 square pages (2). #19 butterfly (1). #26 stars (1). #32 handwriting (1). #36 printed pics (2). #27 balanced photo blocks (2). #38 sprinkled gems (2). #45 wood (2). #46 date stamp (1). #48 multiple metal pieces (5). #54 glitter paper (1). #63 monochromatic cluster (1). #65 CTMH, KC, SS, Prima, Sparkletz, Tim Holtz, Recollections... (2). Total: 58 |

I've been busy with real life stuff, and finally have our business taxes to the accountant and new contracts signed and emailed for DH. So here is my progress over the last week since the On line crop.
FYI: I have commentary about each of my layouts posted on my blog, the link is in my siggie. How I created the page, inspiration, and products used are all listed there. I've been blogging for several years and like to keep my readers entertained with my crafty pursuits.
Finished the journaling on these pages (duplicate copies for each son's book) Double page + share 3pts #4 28pts #5 2pts #11 2pts #14 4pts #15 4pts #25 4pts #26 4pts #32 2pts #42 2pts #49 2pts #49 2pts #60 2pts #65 2pts=63 x 2 completed during on online crop.
Duplicate single pages Duplicate single page + share 3pts #4 10pts #5 2pts #8 2pts #11 2pts #12 2pts #14 2pts #15 2pts #32 2pts #70 2pts = 29 points
Single page = share 2pts #4 6pts #11 1pt #14 1pt #15 1pt #17 1pt #21 included links above for outside challenge 2pts #32 1pt #36 1pt #60 1pt #64 1pt #65 1pt= 19 points
My husband really likes this old school version of a scrapbook page. His comments "the goofy trees, fishing rod, and fish are great" LOL  This was also done in duplicate for both boys albums. Duplicate double page layout + share 5 pts #4 20pts #5 4pts #14 4pts #15 4pts #17 Day 12 3 or more people, Summer, 5 years or older photos 4pts #32 2pts #41 2pts #49 2 pts #50 4 pts #51 4pts #60 2pts = 53 pts
I have another page done that I will take credit for on the points page, but it is for my Stick It Down double page DT reveal, so can not share it here. Climbing on Smith Rock Double page 2pts #4 10pts #8 1pt #11 2pts #14 2pts #15 2 pts #17 Day 18 2pts #25 2pts #32 1pt #45 1pt #46 1pt #50 2pts #51 2pts #65 2pts #70 1pt = 33pts
I have another double page with duplicate in progress on my table that might make it into the March page count!

grammadee - that's a long stretch for you to go without posting a layout! I love the detail work with the gears, treasure and lock, it's beautifully arranged. And the torn edge on your lovely fairy. Your embellies really show the story behind this escape room. angel97701 - I have *so* many family baseball pictures from friendly family games. Love the stars in the background, they pull the 4th of july aspect into your layout. And love the big title! The colours you chose for "cold pond" are so perfect, but what I like most on that layout is the rounded corners that echo the circles in the huge polka dot - clever! The layers on puppy add great interest. And "fishing" - the die cutting is wonderful, love the scene you created. gramma - FABULOUS 2 pagers. Love it all: the title work, the flags, the circles/stars, the colours, the great photos, the sun

This was using the Saturday Sketch this week (thanks mom!) - made this come together so quickly. But I stretched myself otherwise Used DIGITAL items...I purchased from Geralyn Sy (in a creative bubble) with her sale last weekend and used the "YES" and "for the RECORD" cards. Hand-wrote the "lament" and "not sorry". Mixed my own colour (ink from Jane Davenport markers) for splatter and the "not sorry" circle because I had nothing in that shade of magenta. Used cacti puffy stickers Thanks for looking!  layout listerine lament by kirstendrew, on Flickr |

Please excuse the night time photo - but just wanted to get it taken and posted.  this is my 6th layout this month. Hoping to do at least one more - but since I have the whole weekend still - maybe more. 😄. Will add my points up at the end as usual. No grandpas left for these two - my dad had just passed away the month before their wedding. And sadly, my husband’s mom in the 3rd picture, passed away 9 months after the wedding. I am so grateful she was able to come from NY to the wedding and stay with us for a week afterwards. ❤️  |

justlisa7, I love how you arranged the photos on the floral mat: perfect for the grandmother theme. How sweet that your dh's mom got to attend the wedding and spend time with you. Memories like that are special. Great use of the diecut flowers and the gold. This wedding album is absolutely gorgeous, every page, and this is no exception.

justlisa7, that is such a beautiful layout. What a treasure to have those photos of loved ones now gone. I love the gold on the 3 spots, flower, heart and title. Very classy layout. You chose perfect patterned paper and die cuts. ~ Oh, could those little ring bearers be any cuter. They are just delightful. The whole layout looks like it should be in a magazine. I love your small embellishment touches that let those photos take center stage!! ~ I so love all your wedding pages. I’d love to know the font name of “happily ever after”. I love the multiple cake photos, and the last one of the two of them is so very tender. What a beautiful wedding for two great people. I hope they are enjoying Hawaii. grammadee, kitbop, angel97701, gramma, you have love left in the gallery. I hope I didn’t skip anyone. sleepingbooty, I am always amazed at what you can do with a couple of swipes of paint. I LOVE your Capt Marvel. Those circles are great and the font on “finally” is just fabulous. I always love the way you balance your layouts. You are a true artist! ~ Just by looking at your Online Crop page I can tell I really missed something fun. I love all your circles and such a variety of methods for embellishing them. I especially love the ones you cut out, backed with paper and added the tags. Cool page. ~ Your pancakes/Marti Gras page is not only beautiful, it looks delicious! I love that perfect “blue china-like” paper for a kitchen-y feel. I’d love to know what your journaling says. I love the tiny tag that says beloved. Lovely page. thracian, I love your tribute to your pear tree, Louise. What a beautiful way of looking at a tragic incident. I love the soft colors you used in the entire layout, including the journaling. Love that hummingbird! ~ I love the stories you tell with your layouts. The story of your silver lining made me so sad for you. What a great attitude you have to still find that silver lining. Again, I love the soft colors with the gray and those beautiful flowers. Beautiful, poignant page. ~ IF He Fits made me chuckle as I clicked on it. Why should babies have all the fun. You have such a cute little doggie. I love the cluster on the right side of the photo. Cute, cute, cute. **Note to self, still need to comment on page 6 & 7.

You ended up with some cool pages by “sticking pictures onto paper”, KelleeM! My favorite pic is the one with the sunglasses. Love that you used those cute animals in specs images. We’re they stamps or on the pp? AussieMeg, I am off to the Gallery to leave some love |

I like how your dots and stripes add colour and contrast to the photos, Linda. Changing the orientation of the pp strips on the first two really catches the eye. |

Lots of great pages, Linda! I love the title on Oh NO, and I like the fresh green colours. That L bracket design on 4th of July is a classic. I keep meaning to use it more often. And those blues are the perfect match for the water. The maroon goes well with the blues on The Letter page. I love the overlapping offset mats. And Scenic Views is just a gorgeous page. LOVE that plaid! |

page 9: angel97701, all your pages are great. I could see my dh really liking those trees, rod, and fish too. I may have to lift this for him actually. I love the pond is cold. I still have the MME paper in my stash. I love the cluster on "we love our puppy", but that photo is just the absolute best!! KelleeM, for just "stick some photos to paper", you have some really adorable pages. I love the little animals with glasses, the blue washi border and mushroom, owl bird card on You Brighten My Day, and the border on the final page with the string tied to the cards. Linda, wow, you have been on a roll. I love the use of your colors on each and every one of your beautiful pages. justlisa7, as always, your wedding pages are just so stellar. I was scrolling through this thread yesterday or the day before looking at all of the pages when dh comes up behind me. When I got to your wedding pages on page 7 or 8, he was like. "whoa, that is really beautiful". Everyone else on page 9 should already have comments in flickr. |

Wow. Two more pages, Linda. I think you must have a clone to get as much done in one day as you do! Love the navy blues and that banner on the "Tired" page. The green and brown on the "Habu" page really complements the nature scene. And that SNAKE photo!!!! Love that you include his words as journaling on your page. |

I put together two quick pages this morning. After cleaning yesterday I had the photos I needed. And I knew just where the froggie paper was. Another thing I uncovered yesterday was my MR paper twine. For some reason I thought I needed it ALL a few years ago and have used very little since. But it worked really well for the effect I wanted here. Just needed an office stapler to attach it at various places.  Big Fun Play by Gramma Dee, on Flickr Points: two pages created & shared (4). #4 (18), #5 A frog is an animal, right? (2), #11 circle dies (2), #12 green (2), #14 rectangular photos (2). #15 square pages (2).#26 starry pp (2). #32 handwriting (1). #34 theme park (2). #42 5+ pic's per page (2). #46 date stamp (1). #49 circle photos (2). #55 staples (2). #60 paper twine (2). #66 PL card (1).

This was also done in duplicate for both boys albums.
this is my 6th layout this month. Hoping to do at least one more - but since I have the whole weekend still - maybe more. 😄. Will add my points up at the end as usual.
