I had to learn this in school and it came in handy because I was poor and also had irregularities in my build. Love that you turned your skill towards something so artful. :D

Thanks for all your comments. @myla @dwsewbiz @twinsmomflor @vickyday @Marleen @Adryane I have a very good cardiologist managing my autonomic issues, who's guiding me through critical blood pressures so I'm not worried. It does make me feel like there's a lot of pressure, even on a good day...

Without much of a plan we headed out around the east edge of Santa Fe and stopped when I found a place that I wanted to explore. It turned out to be an actual hiking trail we found totally by accident. It was so perfect. We saw a few bicycles, birds purple and pink flowers, and bugs.

:cool: Cool. And thanks, this was fun. NOVEMBER 2022 CHALLENGE LAYOUT LINKS: Challenge 1: BIG PHOTO https://oscraps.com/community/media/challenge-1-meow-wolf.370511/ Challenge 2: HERITAGE https://oscraps.com/community/media/challenge-2-october-7-2014.370627/ Challenge 3: TEMPLATE...

Love your page of gorgeous fall colors and your dreamy cabin for the getaways. Yay! ;)

Really nice photo of the two of you, and the oval frame is fun.

Rain is good. We had fire weathet and are extra thankful. I love your art journal vibe and colorful photos.

Wonderful old photo of you and I love the wire fence, the torn frame and aged papers. ;)

Thanks Nancy! The challenge was making any sort of page at all on a "library" computer. ;)

After my computer died I wasn't sure if I’d get everything back after the repair, or nothing at all. And I wouldn’t know for weeks. It was a major setback and oddly happened while I also was having a critical issue with my blood pressure. It was all hilarious and tragic at the same time.

LOVE LOVE LOVE. My kind of spooky. ;)

More than six weeks later than our early 2 1/2 inches of snow of September 9, 2020, we finally got our first frost October 24th. During the week just before it got cold, we watched one last brave blooming of two beautiful flowers over five days and wondered if flower or frost would win the race.

Wonderful! This makes me happy, like it's bringing back a memory of those concours d' elegance we used to do in my twenties and thirties.

Thank you Charlene for this challenge. I love twisting colors every which way. :D

The walnut tree reached its peak yellow and then was beautiful for three more days. Then overnight about half of the leaves at the top came off. The next day was windy and they kept coming down. There were three weeks of October’s best color before lots of trees suddenly were half or fully bare.

Wpw! Thank you so much!

Those eyes. And I like how the paper patterns and colors echo the pillow and his coat. Beautiful.

Both pages are gorgeous but I get knots in my tummy because we've have so many close calls now, and controlled burns here aren't at all what they used to be. Glad yours went so well. ;)

Wonderful take on the template challenge! The photo is so cute, and the banner is pretty cool.

The watercolor background is wonderful and then I want to pick up these piece in the stack and see each one. :D
