The blending, the texutres, the photos... Just perfect! I love your page and just had to give the the Standing O. Congratulations!

I loved this page by @TrishD - the blending and the textures are exquisite. I love the effect of him walking off the page... and the title makes me wonder what story he's going to tell. Fantastic page!

I take a lot of photos in December, and could probably fill an album with just one month's worth of photos but seeing it's the busiest time of the year and as I try to focus my time around family activities, I have found myself doing less scrapping that usual. That said, I often use Pinterest...

Oh, giving someone their favourite food/festive food - the one they love but wouldn't buy often - might sound unimaginative, but is always welcome. There's a difference between a box of chocolates and a box of realy fancy-looking chocolates, even if it's just two-three pices inside. Expecially...

Gorgeous colors!

TJScraps sounds very fancy... professional almost... definitely an upgrade from a slurpee...

lol... would uou believe it that I have NOT yet discovered ebay???

I too found my hobby during those years of active motherhood when my kids were much younger... scrapping them made me forget my frustrations and focus on how much I love them instead

wow.... sunglasses to hide how bright your eyes are? I love your username - very happy and memorable!

OMG... this is like the sweetest thing ever... great story!!!

faerywings is waaaay cooler than chrissi199... and aromatherapy is divine... I love the memory of smelling something nice... I lost my sense of smell during covid and have been living frangrance-free for the last three months and counting... being able to smell nothing - like really nothing and...

WOW... that's some backyard... gorgeous colors... you spoke of palm trees and tropical storms... where did you use to live?

Your stunning layout is truly outstanding and gets the Standing O from me! I love everything about your page - the texture, the colors, the word art... but most of all, all the invisible - technical - work that you put into creating this page. Thank you for sharing your creative process with us.

This page by @Dorci is begging me to touch it... and reminds me of a tiramisu dessert... The blending and the use of papers clipped to overlays create the most amazing effect of softness and all the additonal amount of technical - invisible - work that has gone into this page get my vote!

What a gorgeous spread from a family album... I love that you fit so many photos on your page and the way you arranged them, the torn edge is a nice touch. Your wordart is fantasic and your journaling is the perfect mixture of humor and storytelling. I just have to give you the standing O for...

This page by @dwsewbiz is the most perfect spread from a family album - lots of photos and witty storytelling arranged in a way that is both artistic and practical.
