I don't have any words better than those already posted but to say this is perfect down to the last pixel. She looks like she's quite the character!

This is a wonderful heritage page, Cheryl! The photo is fabulous and the symbolism of the eyes looking back to the past is very clever. Beautifully done!

This is just beautiful, Cheryl! I love the symbolism of the eyes in the frame looking back into the past. Wonderful!

My son, top right and two of his three besties at the Festival of Champions. They took the Grand Master's trophy to win the Championship by a landslide. Jason was one of the two drum majors. His other best friend, Katie, was his co-drum major. I wonder why she wasn't in this photo? This is...

WOW - just WOW!

I am so honored! Thanks so much Adryane!

Wow! Thank you @Adryane You made my day!

Mine, too. Winnie the Pooh was Justin's best friend when we had to move, too.

I found this yearbook page on Ancestry of my Mother and her forever friend, Toby. I found some others as well. I'll send them to Momma when I can stop running for a bit. I think she has never seen some of them and will be surprised to find her father played football and ran track. His heart...

I found this page from Momma's 1953 yearbook at Ancestry. I'll be sending this to her, along with some photos I'm pretty sure she's never seen in a few days. I remember lots of fun times at her best friend's home. Her children were about the same age as me and my brother and they had a...

There is a wealth of wisdom that comes from Winnie the Pooh and his friends! I thought I'd capture some of it. This LO is not really complex at all. Started with a single paper for the background with a map of the 100 acre wood blended above it, adding paint spatters, paint, gesso, and stamps...

THis LO is designed to show the reawakening of creativity and expression. at the bottom the "brick" border is the brick wall that keeps her mojo down, hence she is in a dark place, an emptiness. As her mind starts tumbling back to creativity, she comes into the light, with a little more beauty...

This collection describes all of us at one time or another. I started with paper 5 of Mojo Lost blended over paper 11with the grid, hallway photo and ink marks sandwiched in between. I then added stamps and paint, then the various images so they appear to be coming from the white line art...

Welcome, Kate! I'm glad you've joined the forums. The O is a great place to live!

Paper 17 is blended over paper 4 using Darken mode. Several layers of paint and transfers are in between the two papers. Add additional layers of paint and papers clipped to paint elements as masks, then the photo and elements on top of that.

Homage to a favorite pastime - tea! This LO looks complex but really is not. Start with a single background paper then layer over it paint, transfers, doodles and papers clipped to either masks or paint used as a mask. Add photos and elements. It's really a matter of arranging things until...

Those are some fabulous LOs! These are the kinds of pages that bring people to life for us. I can just imagine your descendants sitting on a couch in their quarters on a starship looking at and reading your pages as they come to know you in the future. Maybe they'll have a holo deck and will...

It's wonderful that you retained that knowledge even when you didn't think you did. I studied Spanish, German and French but was never really fluent in any of them. I can read then possibly well and as long as people speak a little slower than normally they would, I sitll understand a good bit...

Such a beautiful LO and a sad story. Gina, there are so many more records available now, it's worth looking again. I thin there are people here who would help. I know I will.

What a great story, Ona! Have you made a page about it. Years from now your family will have a right good laugh and you will sit among them 100 years from now.
