Loved this technique challenge! This photo was taken from the deck of the Disney Dream when we visited Nassau in July, 2015. OMG - I forgot to put the date on the layout! I'll go back and fix it later. Papers: Pinkadoo Designs Wonderful Overlays: Pinkadoo Designs Wonderful Transfers...

Journaling: Stephen loves to smile. I have so many photos of him and, regardless of age, he is smiling in almost all of them. This day was no different. His brother was playing football, and we were there to watch the game. Stephen, who would much rather sit and read a book than play football...

Rachael - this is just beautiful! I love all the blending and soft colors. It looks like a perfect dream!

Journaling: Every year, on the first day of school, all the kids and their mothers gathered near the bus stop. Photos were taken, hugs were given, and off they went. A new grade, a new year - a new adventure! First Day of School, September 2, 2008, West Chester, Ohio...

Journaling: When we first saw Madagascar, my boys immediately fell in love with the Penguins. After watching it over and over and - well, you get the idea - I found myself saying, Just smile and wave boys, just smile and wave, whenever we found ourselves in a situation that was going to hell in...

This is a photo of historic Nyhavn, Copenhagen, that I received from Gerli. I loved the port look and all the gorgeous row houses. It just seemed to ask for an artistic expression. Anna Aspnes Paper: Jollification & Auriferous Elements: APP Noble Font: Cool Hand Luke

Just adorable, and I agree with Helene - wonderful extraction!

Stephen has made this "smiley" face ever since he was little. In fact (and I have to scrap this one day), he made it in his Confirmation photo!! I don't think he'll ever grow up - thank goodness! Anna Aspnes ArtPlay Palette Joyful Font: KG Second Chances Sketch and Bell MT

This is a layout I did for Anna's Advanced brush class. It's fairly out of my usual style, but I'm proud of the techniques I learned, so I wanted to post it. Thanks for looking! Supplies from Anna's Class, except Urban Threadz, butterfly (APP Old World) and flower (AAP Noble)

You are truly amazing!

Journaling: So, I am one of those lucky people who was born in December - December 16, to be exact. Chanukah tends to fall within 10 days (either way) of this date, so inevitably, my birthday coincieds with this gift-giving holiday. My parents were not of the mind to make sure I had a...
