Oooo, this is so artistic! Yeah, sometimes you really kick yourself!

Great interpretation of the template. I love that you've added your story - journaling is so important.

Yum! I love these cookies! Clever use of the chocolate drips.

I adore templates but like Trina it's sometimes hard to see the template when I'm done except in general concept. I also use clusters but usually add to them. I really have to work at clusters so I like the inspiration I get when looking at them.

For the background I used mixed media paper 05 as an overlay on mixed media paper 08 to get the pops of turquoise to mirror the photo. For the photo I used techniques - first film grain filter and then posterized it (not to be confused with the poster edges filter instead in...

On the title I used two of the kit elements over the word art - the ornament at top and star at bottom - then a variety of the cute elements beneath the photos to make this cute quirky LO.

Rhonda, this is amazing! I cannot even tell if that is an extraction, blending or masking!

I love the perspective here - like looking through a keyhole!

I love this cute, sweet, quirky piece. The elements are wonderful! It's been warm here, too - we had a tornado around 3:45 this morning!

I have a cousin and a good friend that live in Prescott and I have never seen this gorgeous place! I really can't add anything - what do you say to perfection other than to add a Standing O?

This LO by @frani_54 is fabulous on so many levels. The blending is PERFECT - the water seems to just flow right into the background. The cluster is sweet and understated. The palette is spot on. Pixel perfect!

Kay, your blending is superb! Love those little pops of soft color.

Wow! He's really wedged inside those branches, huh? I love efeect it creates. Seen through the frame I feel like I'm on the other end of the camera.

Your cluster is lovely and mirrors the photo beautifully! Love the juxtaposition of the bold colors against the softer tones. Makes for a super interesting LO!

Love, love, love this! There is so much detail and so much to see, especially to be so small! Yikes! That takes talent.

I love the use of backgrounds that read solid even when they are not. They add so much subtle interest to a LO, just like here. This is a beautiful LO!

Congratulations! Well deserved. I love how your snowman is looking at the bird! Beautiful background choice, too.

So, so sweet and lovely. I love the quote and your background. Fabulous!

Wow! This is fabulous! I love your photos - so much character and great perspective!

Linda, this is wonderful. Love how you've used the text to overlay the elements. Makes it look almost snowy!
