Helen, sure wish she were still living nearby!

I hope it counts that I reversed the body/head switch. I also used a letter pattern, the shadow and basic arrangement.

I'm not too sure about this creation, but it was interesting to do.

We've never been so much into birthday parties, but birding trips are a different story.

His birthday in June has led us to many great birding spots and wonderful memories for my DH. I am delighted to have this photo I took of him crawling across the tundra to take this lovely American Golden-Plover photo.

I have never paper scrapped, so I've never been concerned with copying the look. To me digiscrapping is its own art form no different from other art forms. Some artists create an image within the bounds of the page and many do not.

Wonderful challenge and for sure a favorite place of mine though it seems I've got more sand than sea.

I love the water's edge, Lake Erie or an oceanside. The endless sky, open space, and always birds. Often it's best in fall or winter when fewer people are there.

I've attempted a scraplift of this stunning page: It excited me with the idea of railroads of the past.

My father worked for the railroad and we took trains everywhere, some riding for free on his passes. I loved trains and have been many places on them with fond memories. The stamp is from my collection and the photo was shared by a relative of her mother and older siblings in 1914.

Can't believe I missed this stunning page! The stark photo carries the day but all the elements work so well with it. I've tried to lift it for the March copycat challenge.

I used masked photo, thread, repeated button, black paint splat, colored title.

A warmish February afternoon at the nature center made sun on rippling water fascinating and hopeful of spring.

I've used lyrics from the New Christy Minstrels.

This is a song my DH's group plays and I think this part of the lyrics fits a landscape type LO well.

A lovely page and in addition to the nice red touches I like the little touch of black and white in the stamp.

No surprise, mine's about birds or at least places I watch them.

Birding locations are wonderful here in northeast Ohio, especially focused on Lake Erie.

I'd have to look at my gallery to be sure, but I think I normally do use a title. And a date, and journaling most likely too.
