I just love th palette here. Right up my alley! I'll have to come back just to look and enjoy!

Wow! This is so perfect. Kinda edgy, kinda grungy, and a whole lot of fun! Love how you framed that photo!

I quite agree! The layering is wonderful. Absolutely lovely!

What a perfect kit for this wonderful photo! I love the stamps and sketchy bits!

I love racing, too, and this IS ahuge achievement! This LO is beautifully done. It's masculine and has a lot going on but it really enhances the photo without being invasive. I love it!

I'm almost on time this month! I hope to get a lot of genealogy done this month - if work permits. We shall see!

Mine thought I was, too, until his mother passed away and he found some of her albums were missing. Fortunately, I had scanned them all!

Ilse is one of my favorite photographers at Pixabay. This is my way of saying an extra thanks for the use of her fabulous photos! For the background on this LO, I blended paper 4 over paper 5 then blended a plain blue paper I made in the shade I wanted over that. Add frames and photos. To get...
