Ha ha I have only 1 daughter. She is well into her 40's. May not happen. Nieces and nephews are the same and only one has kids. Oh well the album is done. After I am gone they can do what they like with it. I had fun..

Not a chance. Nope not going to happen.

When I am creating an album for someone else, I will haul out my older kits especially if the page/album is for a baby or men. When completing CT work... well you know the expectations. If my page is for a challenge I will mix kits from a certain designer or mix designers using the older kits.

I pretty much follow the same path as Kay(Bright Eyes) as I too have been scrapping as a CT for a long time. Most often it is the colour palette of a kit that attracts me first then I search for one of the gazillion photos I have that the palette would complement. (I use public Domain sites to...

I have completed my family history from 1877 to present day and have been lucky enough to have photos from the late 1800's. I do have documentation from earlier days which I have scrapped. Unfortunately none of the younger generation is interested.

I don't have difficulty creating such a page however, I don't really think my thoughts are particularly interesting enough for anyone to want to read it. If I do a page for a challenge, I usually ditch it from my computer, not because I don't like the end product, but because it really doesn't...

Looks like a fun template that could be used in many ways.

I am late to the party but hey... It is never too late to say 'Hi and welcome."

Exceptional page with so much detail. Skillful repetitions of elements in a variety of sizes. A brilliant page. Thanks for joining the Challenge this month and sharing your creativity.

I enjoy the structure of this page and the mixing of texture and framing. Lovely soft colour palette finishes it off. It has been a pleasure to have your participation for this month’s challenge. Thanks for joining the Challenge this month and sharing your creativity.

Oh yes! This shows how versatile one can be combining the two pages. I absolutely adore the vertical tower and the soft circle framing the woman. Stunning work. Thanks for joining the challenge.

Oh, what an excellent idea to use the journal entry as a vertical line echoing the strips of papers. The circular frame draws the eye straight to the image. So well composed. Thanks for joining the challenge and giving a unique version.

WA I start on a blank page. Add the quote/title with each word or phrase on a separate layer all in the same type. Place the words where it appeals to you. Once I have the words in place I play with fonts, sizes, bold and sometimes colour. The word/s I want to focus on are usually bold, script...

That circular frame and cluster is exquisite. It truly enhances the colour of the building. A title with 2 fonts creates more interest. Love this. Thanks for joining the challenge.

Brrr, your page perfectly reflects the intensity of the cold. I love that you kept it rustic by using a vertical wood background and a free form photo mask. Thanks for joining in the challenge. Keep those fingers warm!

A really lovely soft and delicate page. A very simple composition with a powerful message.

What a clever way to highlight a travel page. Love the stamps in the background.

Perfect papers for this image. The whole page is one of relaxation and no worries.

Excellent page! I really like the background layering of paper strips and paint splotches. Super photo!

Nicely done composition. The photos are great and what a cutey. I bet she felt really special. I had the same experience with my daughter. Sewed everything up until grade 2 then it wasn't so special then. The only thing I sewed after that were her Synchro competition swimming suits.
