Are you crafting tonight msliz ? I pulled out pics for one more layout, and I have a plan, but that's all that's happening tonight. I'm off to bed. After youngest DD goes off to school tomorrow, I'm taking one of her sisters (and friend) to the beach for the day. Still too cold to go in the water, but should be a nice day anyway to go for a walk and collect shells. And I'll get some new pics too - bonus! Have a great night everyone! |

hop2, more fabulous pages. I like the cluster with the BEST DAY on the first photo. That sky in the photos of Make Today Count is amazing. Great pages one and all. My last layout for the crop  dGummi-Fun by Lisa Davolt, on Flickr

dasmith2, Beautiful page. I am so happy that you used the beautiful floral paper. Alright ladies, I think that's it for me too. It's 11:20, and I have a freezer, dishwasher and microwave being delivered & installed tomorrow. Thank you all so very much for coming and chatting and sharing. It's been a fantastic weekend. The Peas are the best! Thank you crystalb and dasmith2 for co-hosting this crop. I will catch up tomorrow with those central and pacific time zoners who are still crafting away.

Thank you, linda! I didn’t really get anything else done this weekend. A few cards, but no pages. It was fun following this thread, though. Thanks, all! |

THANK YOU again to the lovely gals who hosted this! Annnd, thanks to all the pawsome layouts from all of you, it made me wanna dive back into my cluttered scrapbook room!  LisaDV ....Your Marie Kondo comments made me giggle..... I totalllllly get why she would annoy some people, and yea---the BOOK thing---no! BUT, I watched a few epis on Netflix, and....wait for it....don't get nauseous.....I think she's ADORABLE (I mean her personality AND I think she's sooo tiny and cute, like a fragile little doll). Also, thank you for making me feel better about my MESSY scrapbook table/ room!  ------------------------------------------------ Awww  Sweeeet, beauti-bull memories of Daphne, who we fostered about 10 months....we wanted to adopt her, but for many reasons, we couldn't. She's in a wonder-bull home, though! I tease her new Mommy that I'm thankful she lets me "STALK" Daphne on facebook! We haven't seen in her in over 2 years....miss herrr !!   |

I hope no one minds a lil' hijack of a pik of my Mom's cool layout. The baby is my older sister, born in 1958---so I'm assuming Mom created this page somewhere near that time. When I was serrrriously getting into scrapbooking back in 1998, seeing this was EXTRA cool to me, especially because our Mom only ever made that ONE album. I just LOVE that she didn't have acid- or lingin-free papers, page protectors, special pens, etc. but yet my sister's SIXTY-ish year old scrapbook is still in GREAT CONDITION, completely intact, even the photos are fine!!!!  Sheesh, I have several verrrry pretty K & Co. albums that started falling apart a few years ago!  |

Thank you to LisaDV, crystalb and dasmith2 for hosting the weekend! It's been fun to see the pages that have been posted. Great inspiration! I enjoyed being part of the thread when I could. While I only completed one page, I have everything out and set up, ready to continue work on DD's high school album. I had the best of intentions, but between a headache for two days, out of town family visiting today and DH being home all weekend, there was no traction to be had. One thing I learned is that I simply cannot scrap when DH is in the house. He's extremely distracting, rather like a toddler!  |

I'm not on any of the platforms it looks like I need to be to share my layouts. Unless anyone knows how to import pictures from Google photos. Anyway. Thanks for letting me play along this weekend for INSD. It was fun to read all the chatter.

Thanks for letting me play along this weekend for INSD. It was fun to read all the chatter. You can add a photo directly from your device’s photo gallery, as an attachment when you’re creating the post. Look for the Add Attachment button in the upper right corner. The photo file size has to be under 1mb. I email mine to myself to shrink them down enough. Then it will appear in your post as a thumbnail. Viewers can click on the thumbnail to see it full-size. I attached one image in this thread, I think around the middle of page 10, if you want to check it out. I think the others are linking from hosted sites, but I had trouble with Flickr and stopped doing it that way. ETA if you’re using the mobile version of ProBoards in your browser, you will have to switch to the full version to attach an image. If you’re using TapaTalk, I think you can do it directly through the app, but probably not exactly as I described. |

Aww....sweet foster Daphne "borrowed" Sophie's poodle ensemble for a photo shoot (shhhh.....do NOT tell Sophie---she did NOT like Daphne at all !!!) It was fun to use RIBBON again---oooh, how I LOVE ribbon !!!!   Aww....meet "Professor" aka "Mister Magoo" He was a PRECIOUS 13-year-old who needed a final home to spend the remainder of his life. His sweeet paws dug deeply into our hearts! Ugh, my piks are blurry, so I wanted to explain that I had Meaty and Professor dressed in tuxedos, and Sophie in a veil and dress for this photo shoot on our 20th Wedding Anniversary in 2016.  Once again, Daphne "borrowed" one of Sophie's outfits Ugh, I miss that SWEET girl...but sooo happy she's in a good home!  |

Thank you to our hosts this weekend, and to everyone who has posted layouts or chatted. I didn't get to do nearly as much as I would have liked (of either the chatting or the finishing pages) but I've loved being able to check in several times a day over the weekend and know there would be plenty of stuff to catch up on.  |

Thank you very much to our hosts this weekend and for people who kept up and commented!!! Even tho I couldn't be here much, it felt like I had company when I got scrapping - I thought of everyone else doing their thing too  I have a couple of layouts to post, but won't be able to photograph until after work. |

Good morning all! I am working on getting through the activity that happened overnight, but wanted to do a test.  @thwart, this is from google photos on the computer. It's really big. But all I did was pull up the photo, right click and copy the image address. Then I added the address to the insert image button on this reply bar. I would probably take lucyg 's advice. Testing Linda's advice from later in the thread. Changed bbc max width to 50% |

ComplicatedLady, what a sweet photo and page. I like the star pp. lucyg, I hope you join us again next time. You can totally work on swap items. scrappintoee, I’m glad I didn’t offend. She is a cutie, but that whole book thing is a big NO. And that’s not a messy craft table, it’s a sign of creative genius. That’s what I tell myself. --- Awe, your Daphne pages are adorable. You can tell you & DH cared very much for her from the photos. --- I love your mom’s scrapbook page. I thought their albums were acid free, just not the pens they sometimes used. Your mom’s doodle around the photo is awesome. What sweet dogs to let you dress them up for photo shoots! These pages are so fun! **GypsyGirl**, one page is better than nothing. As to that distracting human, I SO empathize. thwarth, thanks for playing. I’m glad you got it figured out. Did you take Lucy’s advice? I love that I can click the photo and take a closer look. Adorable page. But so scary! Why did he have to go to NICU? He is okay now, right? amblet, thanks for playing. Lunch with Bri is a beautiful page. Love the colors and patterns. But yay for Fry Days – oh my! I love the title pun! That photo looks like a complete “Yay!” to me – perfect. And I love the triangle pp background on the black. I’m totally lifting that. Looking forward to seeing what else will get posted today, but have to go clean up. You know, DH & kids were left to their own devices over the weekend so the house is trashed. AND we don't even have much here yet!!! How do they do that?!

So great to learn something new! I need to have a try at lucyg's advice too as I like the ability to get the larger image and with this way it's only what you see. Sometimes I like to go look at details more closely. But it's always good to have options! |

Wow! Such a lot of creativity over the weekend! I have chosen to share my pages and cards on the Challenges board in the May Sharing thread. I will also be commenting there and in the Gallery, but decided I would come here and leave love for the pages that I missed there. On page SIX: Linda, you got us off to a great start! I love your Lenten ornaments and the page you used to display them is really pretty. Loving the Easter colours and the banners. Love the egg clusters on your egg colouring LO: great choice of patterns for them. Those big eggs on the other page are cool, too, and I like the bunny on the one of them. Glad your dd loves her page. And the floral background was a good choice for the Easter 2019 overview. Yay on being "done with Easter" for this year! Elsabelle, I love those stripes and your cluster. Good job! Isn't there always ONE step that slows everything down!? |

Thank you to the hostesses of this thread, and everyone that posted! 😁
This online crop really motivated me. I used my ZipeMate and dies. I stamped a bunch.
My finally layout total was twelve 12x12's and five 8.5x11's!
I finished scrapping Christmas 2017 & 2018!!
Did the school portraits.
Did some school-event layouts.
It was so much fun to scrap along with you all!😀
