    07-Mel-Wood.jpg

    My father's page. Journaling reads: This single photo of Daddy when he was a 15-year-old Junior at FUHS is extra special to me, a real treasure. I have photos of him from being a baby to about age 10 or 12, then a break to this one, then not another except for his official Navy photos until...

    08-Euvonda-and-Jackie-Deburger.jpg

    Pages 5-8 are in the middle of the panoramic set. All 4 pages can be viewed at one time. Since it starts with my mother, then the school in the 1950s it's the prefect segue from my maternal to my paternal line as my father attended the same school as did his first double cousins (brother and...

    09-Susan-Wood-Class-of-1972.jpg

    This is my page. Yeah, I went to a LOT of schools! Again, this is more about the photos and elements first, then the background and borders. There are no special techniques - it just had to look and feel right!

    10-Skip-Wood-Class-of-1975.jpg

    Journaling reads: These are the only high school photos I can find of my brother. Skip - yeah, I know, he goes by Woody now, but Woody was my Grandpa and Skip is my brother! Surely there are more but where? The ROTC photo is from 1974. The band photos are from 1975. He is somewhere in the 3rd...

    From the Mists of Time - genealogy in the gallery - March 2023

    Well, I'm late - again! March is such a month of change. If I can just get some energy back, I'll be able to enjoy a little gardening - and more scrapbooking! In the meantime, here's a page I did about my great grand uncle William Henry Winter, Jr. and his wife Luella Ebersole. I'm pretty...

    Winter-William-&-Luella-01.jpg

    William was my great-grand uncle. This appears to be their wedding photo. This is another straight-forward LO. Erika makes it all so easy with her beautiful elements! I laid down the background, added the mask and adjusted the photo then played!

    Kim-Recital.jpg

    My sweet little sister at her dance recital - many years ago. This is a really straight-forward LO. Lay down the background, add the mask and adjust the photo, then play with the overlays, brushes, and other elements until it looks and feel right.

    The back of my property is magical when the daffodils bloom. There are close to 10,000 of them and the look like a yellow river along the top of the creek bank. This year I also have a bumper crop of grape hyacinths. These are just some early ones. My front lawn is turning purple! Paper 8 in...

    This is the other half of my family. Momma and Daddy divorced in 1963 and it was final in 1964. In early 1965, we moved to El Paso, Texas and after school let out that year we moved to Anthony, New Mexico/Texas. We lived on the Texas side in a little apartment complex run by my grandparents. It...

    What a fabulous way to depict a dream! Using the OOB mask to "float" the photo in the sky is inspired.

    That's a wonderful photo. Lovely cluster work and I REALLY like the way you used the torn border.

    South American Dream TN pages

    This will go in my bucket list album, too. Wonderful dream! Background consists of a street art photo in Color Burn mode over paper 19 in Linear Burn mode over paper 02. After laying down the background, I added the 5-picture frame and separated the vertical photo from the right to place on...

Background is paper #19 in Linear Burn mode over paper #01 in Lighter Color mode over paper #18. For large picture I made a copy of the photo and ran...

    Greetings from cold and wet Germany

    @Su_Sanne Welcome to the forums and the family. So glad you are here. I feel you on the cold and wet. It was here, too until yesterday then up into the 60sF. By tomorrow we are supposed to be back down in the 20sF. It's so nice to be snug and warm inside!

    @seniorgal Most forums have a limit on the number of messages you can keep in your box, plus for CT members that do challenges for both special events and monthly challenges you can wind up with tons of messages to look through. I kind like to get rid of what no longer applies. It clears up...

    From the Mists of Time - genealogy in the gallery - February 2023

    Apologies for being late with this. I've been recovering from surgery and my tiny little mind just ran away and played dead! February being the month most associated with love, it seems appropriate to tell our ancestors' love stories. I've seen some beautiful wedding and courtship stories...

    Help, Please - Inbox Maintenance

    I know I know how to delete old message and clear space but for the life of me, I can find no option anywhere in my box to delete them. I'm obviously holding my mouth wrong again! I'm hoping it's just me, but you never know. Can someone help, please?

    Pssssstttt!!!! Did you see it????

    Three years ago I was so insecure with art journaling I just sat at my screen and shuddered. But it is so liberating - and therapeutic, too!
