I'm kicking off the month with a layout for the Wacky Holidays - National Candy Day challenge. I used a 'Cool Treats' template by Fiddle Dee Dee, 'I Want Candy' kit by Kristen Aagard, 'Sucre Bleu' alpha by Kristmess Designs. LI will come back and add the points once all the challenges have been set.

This is a page I made for a Paper Issues crop challenge (sorry for stepping out on the Peas...ha!!). The challenge was to use something with gradient color and I had that green watercolor paper laying around. Summer Days by Christine C68, on Flickr

AussieMeg - Love the candy shop with your candy treats so bright and cheery, as well as your joy page. gramma - I so feel your pain those teeny tiny pieces are always not what you see when you buy a die or svc file They look amazing though. christinec68 - I think that green watercolor paper looks smashing. Great way to meet the challenge. So here are a few, these are actually layouts I had to redo them because all the adhesive dried up and they completely fell apart, on Side Eye I don't even know how it went together so I just redesigned it and then also took the opportunity to redesign Beautiful Girl because I didn't like the direction it was headed and since the glue failed me I took advantage of it, plus it was an unfinished page in that it lacked journaling and a title and same for the Side Eye...so I'm counting them as new pages.

Hey Ladies, Would you please send a birthday card? Details: my daughter, Evie, is a girl scout and she adopted a CampFire family last Nov. The fire started on Nov 8 and that is the birthday of the lady who is part of this family we adopted. I know she is going to have a rough birthday this year thinking about everything she's lost (including her cat). We are sending her a little care package, but I thought it would be amazing if she got a bunch of cards to help her dwell on the positive. They just recently found a trailer to move into. She loves cats, coffee, and funny socks. Thank you so much! Her info: Gail Hedlund 3835 Gardiner Ferry Road Space 35 Corning, CA 96021

ABCreations , I just put a card in my mailbox for her. It will go out tomorrow. I love your page about all the things that your family has done to help out. My heart hurts for those who lost so much. I'm glad they have each other and your family too. Very tender page to document this. AussieMeg and gramma , there is love in the gallery for you. Dictionary , I love that cute photo on your side eye page. That cork cluster by your journaling is really nice as is your cluster of different kinds of flowers. Your Beautiful Girl colors are so amazing. They are a perfect match with the soft colors in your photo. What a beauty. Love the design!

This is referencing the book If You Give A Mouse A Cookie, which is a favorite around here. If You Give a Boy a Cookie... This is a page for My History Project I have been working on for several years. My DGD is doing NaNoWriMo and wanted me to write with her for encouragement. So every Nov. I try to write each day on something for my history and family history. The Truffula Tree

My SIL's MIL (sort of an extra MIL of ours) fell and wound up in the hospital with a compression fracture in her back (amongst other health issues) so I figured I should send her a cheerful card. I should've figured that out over a week ago, so now I feel bad. Still have to decide what to write inside besides "I hope you feel better soon and please do your physical therapy so you don't end up in a long term care home." The background is a random paper from an unknown manufacturer/line, the bears are Doodlebug, as is the speech bubble - Christmas Town, but not at all Christmasy. I fussy cut a shadow for it out of dark brown card to match the ground and the sentiment strip, badly heat embossed. Bear hugs get well/thinking of you card by jo.blackford, on Flickr

Dictionary , those remakes are awesome! Love the crisscrossed large mats and the soft colours. Everything looks so crisp and new against that white background. joblackford , those bears are adorable. ABCreations , that is an amazing story. And a great page to commemorate your "adopted" family. What a project! I just saw this today, so won't be able to get a bd card to her in time, but I think I will add her to my Christmas card list. Think I got the rest on Flickr.

joblackford, I left love in the gallery on your cute card. dasmith2, Your Love You page is beautiful. I love the distressed edges and the artsy look of that photo. The stamped butterflies and the fabric fringe are wonderful touches. Lovely girl and layout. ~ Your baby page is so sweet. I love the monochromatic look of it and your scattered tiny embellishments are perfection. What a little sweetie. Here is a page for my History Project that I try to work on every November. My DGD and I compare what we have written each evening. She is doing NaNoWriMo. (National Novel Writing Month) We have been doing this for about 4 years. Watercress

This is finally the last page of my Cousin Camp 2019 album. We forgot to send someone to the shop to take photos of the boys, so we posed them before they left for Calif. Thus there are no safety goggles for them. Grandpa's Shop

AussieMeg love the bright colors and fun elements on your candy page. Great page design on your joy page. The colors are perfect. Let's go for a ride page; I love how you give movement to your pages! Great use of elements.
gramma that is a lot of work on your swap items! They look great and I'm sure they will be appreciated.
christinec68 I like your page design! Nice and clean and it focuses on the photos. You did great with the embellishment clusters.
Dictionary cute side eye layout. I love the color combination as well as the beautiful girl page. Just the right amount of embellishments! The santa page is very sweet! I like how the title is placed. Love the wood background on the laugh page and such a cute girl!
ABCreations I'm late to see your post, but I can send a card.
nylene as usual, adorable give a boy a cookie page! Love how you did the cookies. I'm impressed with your history album you've been working on. I'm probably going to copy every part of your Grandpa's shop page! Is the screws and saw cut files?
joblackford the doodlebug bears are adorable! I don't know how I missed those! I have a lot of camping themed stuff.
dasmith2 I love the way you framed the photo on the Love You page. The scattering of embellishments on the baby page is perfection!
KikiPea gorgeous colors and great design on the special drinks page.

the doodlebug bears are adorable! I don't know how I missed those! I have a lot of camping themed stuff. They're from last year's Christmas Town collection! The die cut packs had several animals I'd associate with the fall season rather than Christmas, although the squirrels have red or green scarves on. I set them aside to use on fall cards, plus a white bunny for an Easter card. Plain brown bears and white bunnies don't feel Christmasy to me!
