Rain doesn't usually stop us when we are out adventuring, though sometimes an oversight (not bringing my rain paints) can have consequences. The rain had been crazy, but radar was showing a break (drizzle for a few hours instead of a torrent), so we headed out. In the mountains it is always...

Thank you so much! I've become a bit (ha!) obsessed with knitting, especially since this is fiber festival season and I get lots of inspiration from window-shopping!

This is a hoot! What a fun bunch! And, yeah, MORE COWBELL!

Great blending job! And loving the ha-ha-ha....

Every single day is different at the shore. Always glad that you are keeping the beach vibes alive for those of us whose trips are too few and far between!

Yikes! Delightfully dramatic! You really captured the spirit of Halloween in this design!

I love how tangled the botanical layers are with the threadz and the frame. A lot of times that's actually how I see things when I'm out in nature, focusing on one part at a time to appreciate the details. I also like how you used your time productively at the drive-thru. Most of ours are...

Frightfully fun! The red and black really carry out the theme!

What a capture! My best bird shots come when they pose on my feeder lol. This is an expansive and inspiring layout!

Dramatic and oh so cute!

Love this, and the focus on the cardinal. I picked up "Advice from a loon" on a magnet during our recent Adirondacks trip and it's on my fridge. Cannot go wrong listening to birds.

Much of the knitwear I created for my grandson is finally fitting, and I'm even repeating knits now in a larger size. He's really an adorable model for the hand-crafted look. I started with the template, placed the Fotoblendz, clipped the primary photo, then fiddled with the layers that obscured...

Definitely feels good to get projects accomplished. I like doing these layouts even though they're really plain--it's so easy to forget all the work that went into something and I like preserving memories of that for future oohing and ahhing!

A spread about more renovations to our new/old (1876) farmhouse. Moving the pellet stove wasn't as big a deal as we had expected (with an old house, there are usually curve balls). Jake managed almost the whole thing himself with supervision from Emma and Elliott. I use FotoInspired templates a...

The other two grands also experienced the every-6-weeks cascading illnesses once they were out in the world. Stopped when they turned 3-ish. So far so good for Ellie, but his social exposure is limited to one hour a week so fingers crossed. Meanwhile he's building immunity from two dogs and two...

I definitely get it. My husband's father was an undocumented adoption, and while headway has been made there, there are a lot of, as you say, "wrong trees" to bark at.

Thanks so much! I just learned how to link videos using a QR code recently, so I'm going a little crazy with it, especially in the grandbaby book. Can't wait to see the parents' faces when this album shows up for Christmas!

Subtle, and very inviting. An engrossing design.

Matching Vespas--what a great touch for this stunning heritage page.

Meticulous composition. Love it!
