dasmith2 both of your pages are gorgeous! I love the distressed edges on the 'Love You' page, and I am definitely going to copy those strips running across the page with the hearts - love it! And the baby page, wow! I love the verse running down the page, and the layers, and all the teeny tiny sprinkles look wonderful. KikiPea the colours on your 'Special after dinner drinks' page are lovely. I don't often use a lot of traditional fall colours, I think the additional of blue really adds something special. Your clusters are perfection! I love how you have arranged the flowers and leaves around the Autumn Splendour and the heart card on your 'Life is Lovely' page. I love the two tone title too (how's that for some fancy alliteration?). I love the look of the big photo across the whole page - fab!

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! Thanks! I'll keep a closer eye on their diecut packs.

Comments on the creations shared on page ONE: dasmith2, your pages are gorgeous. Love the distressing on the Love You page. That and that layered border strip give this page so much depth. The photo is beautiful, too. And that baby is so SWEET! Love all the scattered hearts and stars. And KikiPea, you are the QUEEN of floral clusters! Great use of those dollar bin flowers! Love all the autumn splendour framing your photos! Think I caught the rest on Flickr.

This is finally the last page of my Cousin Camp 2019 album. Noooooo! I'm going to miss your Cousin Camp pages. I'm looking forward to Cousin Camp 2020 - I bet you've already started planning the theme! There's love in the gallery for your page. You are so sweet! I still have photos from other year's Cousin Camps so you may see some older ones. LOL

KikiPea , I really think you should teach a class in clusters. Your Special After Dinner Drinks has such beautiful ones. I love the oranges you used and adding the complimentary color of blue makes them really pop. Beautiful page.~ Your Life is Lovely has more wonderful clusters. I love the die cuts and the use of the gold is elegant. That photo is gorgeous and you did a fabulous job scrapping it. refugeepea , there is love in the gallery on your cute pocket pages. I need to try to do that again. Another page for my History Project of random childhood memories.

I used three super old patterned papers, and four Target dollar spot flowers for this LO. I would never have thought the flowers were from the dollar spot! There's so much wonderful stuff going on on your pages. I'd love to see them in person so I could focus in on all the layers of goodness. But your pages are still firmly about the photos - I see some pages where you hardly even notice that there ARE photos on the page. (To each their own, but I like photos!)

Two pages and a card to share today. This first is my sample for Sketchy Saturday November 9th. pumpkin love 1 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr And then I have a facing page to go with it: Pumpkin love 2 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr And here is an anniversary card I put together for our nephew & his wife. I shamelessly lifted this from one of nylene's CARDtober cards. Inside it says, "So glad you found each other" sock anniversary by Gramma Dee, on Flickr

Yes, I agree, my scrapping is all about the photos. I appreciate knowing I do a good job of highlighting them, and not covering them up in all the goodies. 🙂

Oooh! nylene love how your neatly composed your pages with room for the fun bits gramma - the stripes on the Halloween background have my heart, as do your wonderful matted titles that are such great fonts and pop out of the page! @aussiemom - love the sketch use, the background faint map gives such good texture and the writing font on the journaling circle looks great.

teacherlisa, I love your nature page with the identification of the plant. What a cool thing to document. ~Your food truck page makes me smile. I have a DD who follows them and has lunch at her favorite often. Great photos.~ I love your open and honest journaling about watching your thoughts. I can tell you have put a lot of time and work into getting rid of negative thoughts. Thanks for sharing.~ Your zoo page with the boys at 2 different stages of life is wonderful. I’m sure they have great memories of visiting the zoo together often. There is love in the gallery for AussieMeg,and gramma. Great pages this month.

This is a card I made for my DGD's b-day. As it opens, the box in the center pops up. I bought the file on the Design Store sale and look forward to using the pattern and adding other things to the box. It's a fun card. Pop Up Panda Card

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 Will make one today and send it out tomorrow!!!

teacherlisa, your journal pages are always a joy to look at. I love the photos you take of people, food, nature, whatever captures the specific experience or emotion. And your affirmational pieces are always a good reminder to enjoy the moment and appreciate our lives as they are. The Then & B Now at the zoo is an AWESOME scrapbook page! Oh my, how they grow... @sunnycalimom, those are FUN pages! I love the way the vertical matted border on Enjoy the Ride elicits the thought of train tracks, and the glitter thickers give the whole page some punch. Love the plane and rocket stickers on the Ready to Fly page. And on both your pages I really appreciate how you can get all the info plus themed elements and bright happy colours onto the page, yet still preserve the white space that gives each page a professional look. Hoping to catch everyone else on Flickr.
