I LOVE this so much, Susie. I KNOW you've been "reluctant" to embrace this holiday and I'm SO happy that you had this experience. Thank you for sharing your experience and your "epiphany". :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred:

Thanks for the challenge, Esther.

Created for Lynn Grieveson's November Challenge. Lynn's Featured Collection for the month is Haven.

Thanks for the challenge, Mel. I used Color Crush 79 by Joyful Heart Designs and Sentiment by Natali Design; both from the October 2024 Color Play Collection.

Good morning Thought I'd jump in here - I know - it's very early for me. I'm waiting for Alyssa to pick up Daisy. She's taking all three Doodles to the groomer on her way to school. She goes to college in town, so it's right on her way to drop off the dogs. She should be here any minute...

Hello Bubby!! It's wonderful to see you here and if you have any questions, just ask. Whatever challenge you're thinking about doing, the hostess will be more than happy to answer any questions you might have.

This is just beautiful, Betty Jo. I love how you divided your page and used such wonderful fall colors. The top quarter of your page, that contains your journaling, is just perfection. I'm SO thrilled that you're starting to "get hooked" on AJ - thank you SO much for joining our challenges...

This is beautiful, Betty Jo and I'm thrilled to hear that you're beginning to like AJ. It's such a freeing form of art and expression. :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred:

Thank you, ALL of my dear friends, for your support and love. I've had a rough few days, but I'm hanging in there. Thank you for the special notes and comments - I'm not sure why I "hit the wall", but I did. I have an indominable spirit, and don't stay down too long though. Chris @faerywings...

I hope you win just a small lottery, Tracy. Wouldn't that be awesome??? It doesn't have to be a big one - just any kind of extra money. It's such a temptation here - SO much lusciousness in our Oscraps store!!!

Betty Jo @Betty Jo here are the layouts I did back in 2021 when we didn't have wifi and had to drive to get access to it: https://oscraps.com/community/media/my-office-life-in-the-country.349137/ https://oscraps.com/community/media/my-office-life-in-the-country.349138/

Betty Jo, you were probably here when we lived in that little brick house before we could move into our new home. We didn't have wifi and Chuck and I had to get in the car every day and drive to a place that had public wifi so I could download my CT files and make my layouts. I made a layout...

Yes, it certainly does. :hug2:

This is gorgeous, Vera. I love the "grundgy" feel - and all the artsy bits you added. NO problem about blurring pictures - you do what you need to do. I completely understand that some people don't want pictures on social media.

Thanks so much, Betty Jo. These kiddoes are so special! Thanks for your sweet comments.

Thanks so much, Tracy. My grands always make me feel so special. I loved using these pictures on my layout for Carol.
