We planted the coral honeysuckle in hopes it would attract hummingbirds but also as it is pretty. Last year it bloomed in May but not much later. This year we're pleased it has lots of blooms again in June and July and today a hummingbird visited it! Credits: -background, paints: Oscraps...

Yes, Joanne's sketchbook supplies are wonderful. I used more elements for week 25. So now I'm caught up with two days left of week 27. Then we'll be over half way through. Amazing!

DH canceled his bird count this morning as T-storms were predicted - and arrived while he would have been out. More probably in store, but fairly nice right now. The art festival held near us is this weekend and all too often it rains during that. Chris, I know how Cait feels about the...

This is another (sort of) butterfly, a type called a skipper, I saw on the butterfly bush while at GRIP in Pittsburgh. It's been identified as a Peck's Skipper. Credits: -kit: Oscraps Collab Smile (from the 25 Days of Christmas Dec. 2016) plus -line: Say Hello ARTGRAPHICS by NBK Design...

Gorgeous photo and wonderful effect with the circle frame. Very beautiful.

Fabulous! The photo is so soft and elegant and you used perfect effects with it.

Goodness, it's quiet here right now. I'm off to the dentist soon, hopefully just routine cleaning. We've had some lovely weather but it's clouding up and may rain at some point. We're still waiting for a new roof but roofers are backed up because of so much rain to date. Chris, what irony...

Good afternoon! Have just a minute before DH wants to go for various errands. Posted my week 26 and am working on week 25. So scrapping coming back? Genealogy is at the front of the line though. As to "getting real" - we'll see. :biggrin1: Chris, sounds so good to hear positive things in your...

It is delightful! Love the photo, title is super and all the musical elements perfect.

Thanks, Felis! I've started backwards, doing week 26 now while it's fresh in my mind. Week 25 will follow eventually. :grin:

It was a wonderful class, nice weather and good people. But good to be home again too. This kit is perfect for my school days! Credits: Sketchbook Supplies by Joanne Brisebois Designs fonts: Chalk, Lithograph Light, Baveuse, Jane Austen, Amapola, Huxtable, Corbel

Good afternoon Ozzies! Hope it is a happy Independence Day for Americans. Sorry I missed wishing Canadians a happy 150th on Saturday. And, Chris, a very belated Happy Birthday! Last week was a genealogy class in Pittsburgh with planning and more before and trying to get real since. It was...

Thanks for thinking of me Felis! I was at a week-long genealogy class last week, presented a workshop the day before we left (I rode with friends.) And before that getting ready like crazy. I have the photos for the last two weeks, but have done no scrapping yet. Love your insect hotel!

Love your week 23 page! It is so lovely and happy until the end. I'm still not sure what to think of my week 24, but here's the page.

Felis, you sure are right about the time flying. Can't believe it's already the middle of June. Anyway, here's week 23.
