Created for the April Artist Inspiration Challenge. My layout was inspired by Leonid Afremov's Farewell to Anger.

Beautiful designs Marie! Welcome to the O!

The background consists of three layers. The bottom layer is a solid green paper. The next layer is a blue and cream background paper with the blend mode set to Lighter Color. The top layer is the same paper rotated counter clockwise 90 degrees and set to Darker Color.

I have one. It's called Oscar. It's from the early 90s and stars Sylvester Stallone. It is so funny.

I think I am gonna have to give this a try.

This is a gorgeous page. I absolutely love your flower clusters!

I love this heritage layout from @ChrissyC. The flower clusters are gorgeous.

I have two of my dad to share. This one is him with his dog Jasper. And this one is just cutest outfit ever.

I so love all the wildlife I get to see and photograph living in South Florida.

The photo has been altered using the Sketch Filter in Photoshop CC. The photo was duplicated and the Sketch Filter with the Bas Relief Setting was applied to the bottom photo. The top photo was then set to a Blending Mode of Pin Light.

My oldest are probably from the 1930s of my maternal grandparents. After that it's probably mostly from the 40s and later.

I have one cousin that I might be able to get in contact with. I may have to see if she is interested. Otherwise I might consider your idea of a donation to family history organization. I'm gonna have to give it some thought.

I don't think you can convince me. I tried a small bit on some bagel and I was sure glad I didn't put it on the whole bagel. lol

I've done a couple of family history ones recently. I just scrap them for me as neither my sister or I have children, so there isn't going to be anyone after us to care about my mom's side of the family.

That sneak peak looks so awesome!

I think we are already moving on to Summer. It was over 80 today. Temps have been kind of up and down lately.

@faerywings If you are three episodes in and still not enjoying it, I say find something else. If you are willing to do subtitles maybe "Servant of the People" starring Volodomyr Zelensky. (I've heard it is actually quite good but haven't started watching yet.) He plays a teacher who becomes...

Now that's a mistake. lol The layout is gorgeous and I just love the bright colors.

Great work pulling the different products and designers together to create such a beautiful page!

Love the paper and strips and the way you tucked the photos. Great color combo too.
