Welcome, MaryJohn! I started paper scrapping when my second, and last child was born in 1998 and switched to digital in 2005. I hope this is your comfort zOne, too. I just love new family!

Jana, I love the perspective on the photo. The way you've masked it, it beckons "Come with me!" I want to follow along to see just where he's going. Beautifully done!

Fantastic use of white space. This photo just shines because you've kept the main thing the main thing!

Anne-Marie! This page is fabulous! You've echoed the roses on her shirt and made such a wonderfully cohesive page. Lovely journaling and a page I'm sure she will treasure! I think a Standing O is in order.

Anne-Marie @A-M has given us a delightful peek at Kirra and the beauty within her.

Yes, they ARE noisy and destructive but they are loaded with personality! And you've captured that beautifully! I love that bottom left closeup - you can just see the mischief in his eyes! Wonderful pocket page!

I can only agree! Great work on the extraction. It really adds a lot of movement to you LO. I love those poppies!

I agree! You've made wonderful choices here to bring this LO to life. I want to just jump right and explore!

Fantastic use of white space! You actually have a lot going on here, but to me the LO reads minimalist. Love it!

LOL! I love geese. Like chickens they are loaded with personality. You've captured that beautifully. Wonderful cluster work and layering.

Eva, I was just thinking about you and wondering how you are doing - and here you are. What a great interpretation of the template. Fabulous layering and cluster work. I think you need a Standing O!

I know Eva @tanteva does fabulous work. I've been a fan for a long time, but this new LO is a stunner! I love her interpretation of the template.

You go, Girl! I love the bright sunshiny feel you've created. That hanging pot banner is just darling and look at all those flowers! It's a great home for a great photo!

What a pretty picture out amongst the heather! That's a beautiful cluster. This feels like a square for a memory quilt. I'll bet it would be gorgeous!

What a lot of work filling all those big letters! That wood background is a really smart choice!

I love your background! The quilter in me is so happy! I agree with Chris - so lovely and refreshing and a gorgeous cluster.

Ooooo! A gorgeous MM page. I love all those lace bits and bobs and the use of the B&W photo.

I must be very open and tender today - another LO that has the tears freely flowing. I love your masking and blending; it creates a memorable page.

Sonja, you've been peeking into my heart! This just SO resonates with my heartstrings - so beautiful I am in tears. This LO - and the journaling that prompted it - is pixel perfect. I just MUST give you a Standing O!

There are really no words I can find to describe just how deeply this LO by Sonja - @svanderhaegen - has touched me. It REALLY needs to hang on my wall to remind me I am not alone in this journey to be me! It is absolutely perfect!
