Cool, Evelyn! You liekly have some connections to my children - they descend through John Alden and Priscilla Mullins. I loved that part of my masters study. Colonial America fascinates me!

That would have brokeen my heart. That almost happened with my much-loved mother-in-law's albumns. My now ex put them out for Angel's Attic to pickup from their carport as he left her home where he had cared for both his step-father and his mother as they declines. Because of the...

Welcome back, Jeannette!

Welcome, neighbor! I'm from Kentucky. Tennessee is a beautiful place to live - and so is Oscraps!

This is a LO I made over the weekend about my mother's paternal line. It's kinda funny - Momma and her cousin Mary Anna grew up as only children and thought they had a small family. Not! As you can see, there were a total of 12 children in her Winter line. One died young so this photo...

In addition to the pumpkin I used: Bat Skeleton or skull Spector Vampire Witch For the most part, this LO looks complicated but it really not. It's mostly a matter of choosing which parts of the template to use and what papers and elements to include. Rather than the photo mask included in...

Single large, blended photo on background like amandajk, multiple stacked photos like isDK These are photos of my two sons and our little Jack Russell terrier, Cali. Sadly, Cali is no longer with us, but she had a good long run, and my youngest (in the blue toboggan) is moving to Virginia this...

Winter is my mother’s maiden name, so this is the PERFECT collection for my mother’s paternal line. This is about my 2X great grandparents. Their children are depicted in birth order, except for the 5th born child, daughter Mary who lived only 9 months. My great grandfather was their youngest...

WOW! What a gorgeous photo and a perfect home for it!

Beautiful composition and layering!

I love the minimalist approach for this wonderful photo. It lets the picture tell its own story.

What great fun! I completely agree with everyone!

Oh, congratulations! Well-deserved!

I love that you made the photo the main thing here. Such a beautiful child!

I can't really add anything but want you to know this LO moves me. The larger photo speaks so eloquently of longing. Beautiful use of the maps on the background - and a well-deserved Standing O!

I'm sorry, I lied! The next LO I came to was this beauty by @Amandajk I really can't add anything this LO doesn't say - more eloquently - all by itself. Perfection!

A real life wide-eyed moppet! THis LO reminds me so much of the picture that hung in my room as a teen.

Is this fun or what? Every pixel just exudes joy!

One more for now. This LO by @Cath VP is so beautiful. The cluster seems to just flow from the photo.

I love how the cluster seems to spill out from the photo. Lovely! And I think a Standing O is in order!
