So festive! The dark background is perfect for the fireworks effect!

I like how you positioned the photo relating to the background...it's like a landscape. Lovely work.

What beautiful colors! Especially loving the purple branches.

Nice! I like the contrast between dark and light!

A very, very sweet birthday layout!

Your mystical side is peeking out again--love it! And good for you for capturing the eclipse!

What a great idea to make that primary block frame! It adds not only color, but balance. Another thing I like? Oz's hair creates a couple of visual triangles on this spread--so cool!

What a terrific layout! The brown bits circle around the page in a most mesmerizing fashion. And the word cluster is awesome.

Pretty! The photo pops from the artistry so nicely!

Back-to-school shopping has remained a tradition for me and my girls even though school days are long gone. This year we focused on shoes and Emma, who is notoriously hard to fit, found the perfect pair of snazzy blue-gored Blundstones, which she wore out of the store to our lunch date. My...

I'm always inspired by your MIRs--it's such a good way to document. Right now I feel absolutely overwhelmed with everything, so am thinking of shifting to a MIR approach for 2024. Love the animals and the calving success story! The bear, too. We had a young bear pretty high up in my daughter's...

Beautiful! The path leads us right into the hike!

This is terrific! Count me into the fan club!

Love how the photo blending works with the background. The wire is great here, too!

We were talking to staff at the park and there apparently are Legolands in California and Florida--and now New York, which opened during the beginning of Covid. It really was a good time. The oldest grand and my son are the real Legomaniacs, but there was so much for visitors of all ages. And a...

Can you tell we had fun at Legoland New York? Instead of our usual family Fall apple/pumpkin event, this year we decided to branch out into something different—visiting the new theme park that happens to be pretty much in the middle of all four families. We were able to scoop up all but one...

Congrats on that Standing O. Your use of the flowers is bold and I love it. I love it all, actually!

Love the leaves against your horizon line--an unexpected perspective.

Love those trolls. And loving the interplay of the blue and the red--so vibrant--I was surprised to read about the heat (not for me!).

Excellent visual rhythm across this page--stunning! And not sure what a Zooper Dooper is, but I can tell it was well deserved!
