Wow! I'm speechless and so deeply moved. Eva, you are just the best! And I know I gave you a Standing O earlier, but I've got to give you another. This is scrapbooking at its best. The whole LO tells the story in your heart without any other journaling.

What can I say about this LO by Eva (@tanteva )? It tells its own story without any help at all from me. I'm wordless!

Very cool. We would call this groovy years ago. I love all those gears and compliment you on the patience it took to place them all.

I'm with Tracy - and I think a Standing O is in order!

This cool LO by @alsoartysa is wonderful in many ways - great layering, great choices in papers and elements, wonderful left border. I just love it!

Wow! The cluster work and framing here are amazing. Such a delicate, feminine LO!

What a fun and creative LO! I love the witch and the bear. This makes me think of C.S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe for some reason. Fun!

Fantastic use of negative space. You've absolutely kept the photo the main thing!

Such a gorgeous LO! I agree that the sepia photos are really creative and inspired. Wonderful!

Absolutely amazing! There is so much attention to detail here. Your love for your Dad just oozes from every pixel!

I so agree. I love how the paint across the middle mirrors the far horizon in the photo. It really draws the photo right into it and supports it with style.

I love the bold pops of color, they really emphasize how fun the day was.

I LOVE this LO! This is so creative and artistic! I have come to love steampunk because of LOs like this - you make it look easy!

Jeannette, you might buy a few large thumb drives and put your older kits on them. I kept all my zipped files and have them on thumb drives just in case but I've been deleting what I know I will never use from my EHD. I'm planning on purchasing 2 20TB EHDs - one for scrapbooking and one for...

I LOVE your garden, Ona! I don't have any here - yet. It will depend on whether my Dad will allow it. But I do have a work box crammed full of miniature garden stuff and will make a terrarium in my room once the bathroom renovation is done and I can get all the dust and debris under control.

I'm considering because there is so much more I want to know how to do and recent changes are just confounding me. I am completely self-taught. My question is - was it worth it? Recommendations?

My new siggy. It was time for a change.

There's not much more I can add here other than a Standing O! What a GREAT LO!

And Anne-Marie's LO @A-M is stunning. I want to see where those rails lead. My Grandpa and at least one of his uncles were railroad men so this grabbed me and would not let go!

Oh my! What a gorgeous LO. I love the background with all the paint and stamps. Such a beautiful home for this sweet photo! I think you deserve a Standing O!
