Happy Sunday from an even smokier-smelling NJ. *holds nose and coughs a little* The wind was horrible again yesterday and the fire jumped its borders on the NY State side. The NJ side is still mostly contained but it's not like the fire knows state lines. :/ The forecast is still hopeful for...

Phenomenal page! I am in awe of your clustering and blending!

Your page is beautiful but the journaling is frightening. I love how the photo, the blurring, and the water drops all add to the symbolism of the story

beautiful! I love the soft colors and the angel peeking from behind the fish!

BTW- I did get that adorable autumn kit and scrapped the photo of the chunky squirrel. My friend across the street commented on FB -- "You know why he is so fat?" Answer: He is probably one of the ones who flings himself off of her roof to reach the bird feeder :giggle4: @AK_Tracy Ahhhhh...

Good morning! My day is off to a fantastic start. Nope, not sarcastic. Really! I think the third mug of coffee is helping but I already got a couple of things accomplished. Uh-huh-- it is definitely the coffee talking b/c it was only one thing accomplished. Sam texted the invite to her niece's...

Don't beat yourself up. "Back in the day" when the kids were little, I would try to be close to finished before Thanksgiving (end of November). It seems to get harder and harder to find things/buy things/make things every year.

We usually decorate after Thanksgiving too. I hope my family gets into more holiday spirit than we did for Halloween which felt more of a chore than anything. I do like the lights and tree and the yummy scented candles.

@Vicki Robinson Thanks so much! I am doing the research now so I can keep my eyes open for the BF sales :) The iPads are out of my budget now, but maybe next week that might change, I also looked at some of the Fire tablets...do any of you have experience with them?

Maybe still a little dark but I see some improvement :D

November Challenge #4 - Border Only — https://oscraps.com/community/threads/november-challenge-4-border-only.40695/ As soon as I saw this kit in today's HAPS, I had to buy it. I took a few photos of a very chunky squirrel in my backyard a couple of days ago Isn't it cute how he is standing in...

@taxed4ever My goodness, your neighbor is a piece of work :rolleyes1: You are kicking butt with the calendar pages. High 5s! I forgot that I was going to make a wedding album for Caitlyn and Tom for Christmas. Do you think it is too late -- 20 pages in a few weeks? I did a few LOs for...

Let's start this thread with some :friday: cheer! Wait. Hold up. We can't have any Friday cheer if we don't have coffee *first* and boy oh, boy, this Faery needs some of that, STAT. :coffeedrinker: And some more :coffeedrinker: That's better. I heard something yesterday that freaked me...

That was me at childhood sleepovers and Girl Scott camping trips. It felt so awful.
