Yesterday we ran errands and I got the last little thing I wanted for BiL's gifts (includes for the evil cat and now a treat for the birds/critters outside too). So today I've got to get it all wrapped and the artwork in some kind of box and get it all mailed. Today! I hope. Last night we...

The poinsettia today looks wonderful. I tried the photo with a brush stroke effect, but went back to the original. Credits: lift of Inspiration Challenge - Shine On by LDArtist https://ozone.oscraps.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=417337 -paper, frame: Beach (papers & elements) by et...

This is so lovely and I enjoyed doing a scraplift of it.

Somehow see to have missed this one but it is so wonderful. Love the photos and the colors.

Lovely use of the photo and love the sentiment of your word art. Beautifully blended and excellent elements.

Beautiful photos and what wonderful papers with them. It looks like Christmas spirit is coming with the tree.

Love how the music seems to swell from the horns giving such power to the page. Wonderful colors too.

What a priceless photo! Love the delicate colors and elements you used with it. How fun to remember what you probably asked for (and got.)

Love how you combined humor (but oh so real!) with such beautifully arranged elements. A standout job.

Nancy, these are wonderful photos of a special place indeed. Again glad to see you and son too. Perfect background for this.

I don't remember ever doing the Santa trip thing and didn't have kids to make do it, but I was sure as a little kid that I "saw" him at my bedroom door on Christmas Eve. But now I want him to be less about presents and more about being kind. Credits: Oscraps Collab Comfort & Joy...

It started to feel like winter again today but no white stuff was back yet. We met a friend to see where she works now and had lunch. I'm procrastinating on all the holiday stuff I need to do, but we did bring the poinsettia down from the "tree house" into the dining room where it will spend the...

I love this! Such great angles on the guitar and a great arrangement of them. Makes wonderful use of the template too.

What a great pair of pages. I love hawks too (surprise!) and enjoy your stalking of them. ;)

Great page and wonderful story. We share your joy of a Cooper's Hawk in the yard.

I could ask for personal things too, but these would be best of all. Credits: -paper, flowers, ribbon, splatters, lace: Golden and Joyful by emeto designs -gifts, snowflakes, evergreen branch, leaves: Santangles by Maya de Groot -transfer (paper piece), overlay, owl: ArtPlay Palette...

Today will be the usual football on TV. Yesterday the pot luck was great, always good food and then sitting around with friends. Later I reviewed a Civil War diary from 1862 that I will probably write about in our monthly enews featuring a manuscript collection. And a new member volunteered to...

Kerstin, thanks so much for picking my orchid page for a standing O! Great way to start my day.

Going from the cold into the steamy orchid room in the greenhouse is such a delight and great December tradition. Credits: -paper, transfer: ArtPlay Palette Silver Bells by Anna Aspnes -tag, brad, scribble: Oscraps Collab Comfort & Joy (2019 downloads) -stitching: UrbanStitchez No. 12 by...

Great page for CBCs! Love that we're both doing them. Last year we finally gave in and called it quits having done them since 1973. Hope you keep up with it and get more beautiful pages like this.
