Awe so sweet.

Awesome visual effects! The colours are supreme and give off the feeling of a very hot day in the city.

Exceptional effects work on the photo. I like that you used a smaller image and added the cluster and matting.

How clever to use the DDG to get the look you wanted. Well done and congrats on the Standing O

I can hardly wait for the warmer weather to come. We get so little of it here. Love the vintage card complimenting the photo.

Excellent use of stamps/brushes and layering. A few simple elements and a frame offer just enough to accent the photo. Super page.

Ahh she looks so absorbed in the book. Loving the layering and background grunge.

Hobbies? Hmm I have let many of them go as the hands don't let me use fine motor skills anymore. Gardening is still on the list but just a few pots for the patio these days. Reading and playing scrabble with my sister would be about it. Does just sitting count as a hobby? ;);)

Welcome to your new home. Your kits are truly lovely.

Excellent,excellent,excellent! So much talent on display here. Buildings, doors, windows are all perfect subjects to use filters on. You have demonstrated how to do that beautifully. Well done and thanks for starting off the challenge with such a creative page.

It is sheer pleasure piecing together a scene using two of her kits Lynne's kits with a country theme. As I am a country girl, I couldn't resist adding lots of animals and trees. To make this scene I started with a background paper that had some distance to it. From there I added elements...

Love the way the photo is tucked in amongst the flowers and twigs. Setting them on the distressed background anchors the page perfectly

Your clusters are brilliant. Perfect example for the template challenge.

Excellent use of background collage work. It really suits the sepia photo.

I hope they don't get washed away! A very whimsical page and fun to think about what might happen next.

Oh pretty calendar page! Spring flowers are my favourites.

You must have a lovely garden. The succulents are so colourful. Love the way you framed them with the fern cluster.

An enchanting page. It is so pleasant and calming to view. Well done.

The colourized sketch is awesome! Well done on the GSO

Super page. I remember having to wear those bathing caps. An impressive page in its simplicity.
