This page, by trish6150 is stunning, to me. The 3-D effect she created is enormously effective.

What a beautiful collection. Wonderful page with the layering of elements and the little plaque with the word art. The scripting really extends the page beautifully. Lovely design.

So very lovely. I love how the masking of the photo blends into the vastness of the waters and that little clustering is adorable. Congratulations, Standing O: https://ozone.oscraps.com/forum/showpost.php?p=637084&postcount=128

I simply adore how toniboy used the masking to set the photo into the vastness of the waters.

Oh, the eye beaming its glance at the lady is very effective. I love the soft colors in your botanical design. Beautiful.

I love the water spilling over the framing and the beautiful photo adding so much movement to the page. Lovely clustering. Well deserved GSO. Congratulations.

Lovely page. I like the winged sketch that fits your quote beautifully.

What a perfect blending of the softness & neutral coloring of the grunginess. I love the soft touch of the fraying fabric beneath the cool photos and the scripting with a touch of the scribbling. Beautiful page! Standing O...

I love the soft grunginess & natural palette, by FloridaGranny.

What beautiful with the muted colors and your use of the envelop flap. The paper beneath the photos and your soft photos really give an elegant look to the page.

So so pretty. I love that little vertical use of the color palette. The flowers are so beautiful.

Beautiful framing of that cute little girl. Again, lovely clustering and I love how the fish & its little water bubbles draw the eye horizontally across the page. I like the multiple papers askew in the background also.

I love your background with all its textures. It feels like the water rippling up on the shoreline in the background. Beautiful clustering. (I love that fish!) :)

Oh, I adore your flower girl. You've surrounded her with her own personal forest of natural plants and friends. I love the halftones you created and her celebrating heart path. I agree, the page wouldn't be as effective without the background. Beautiful.

Awww. Pixie is so cute. How could you not stop and love on that little girl? :) Love the reds throughout the page. The golds really bring out the golden color in Pixie as well.

Gorgeous. I am such a fan of the black & white, with its classic statement. What a great balance between the top frilliness of the masking and the great font on the bottom. The strip of damask taping, beside the eye, really brings the photo into focus.

What a beautiful lady! I love the bold background. It looks like a lovely piece of striped velvet, it has so much texture. I like the grunginess of the template against those elegant flowers. Lovely.

You look radiant! I love your floral clustering of bold colors against the muted same colors beneath, in the background. Really lovely page.

The corn chowder and cornbread were yummy. :). I’ll post recipes tomorrow.

Those both look good, Trudy. Thank you. I found a corn chowder recipe that one of my bloggers swears by so I’m going to make it and the cornbread one you sent here. I’ll report my review afterwards! :). Thanks for chowder idea, Chris!! Still accepting recipes since I have lots of corn. Hahaha
