This is a moving and a lovely and loving tribute page. Hugs to you and yours.

What a fun take on the courage challenge. Knowing your sense of humor, I LOVE THIS!!!! Just keep on going with that attitude. Every woman should.

So pretty. I like the way the sky is such a feature in this layout, reminiscent of the region where you were. It is part of the photos, the background and the brushes. Really lovely!

What a fun set of photos. I really like that you put them in triangles and then journaled diagonally. Very neat way to set up the LO. The splash is a nice touch as well.

This is really pretty. I like the way you two-toned that backdrop. It really enhances your images. The white staining on the edges is reminiscent of water and a nice, but subtle touch.

Are these all your own personal day lilies? Or are you a fan of the flower? I know some people really like to collect many, many varieties. These two companion pages are so brilliant - real showstoppers!

This is hilarious. I saw this in the gallery and wondered "What in the world does Frankenstein have to do with a day lily floral layout?" Well, I learned something. Those are a fantastic bunch of day lilies. So many colors!

This is gorgeous and stark and the palette is really nice. Your journaling is so heartfelt.

What a weird and whimsical story and image. Love how you adjusted the background and added the embellishments all around the image.

Thank you for the inspiration. I had fun scrapping something from our recent botanical garden trip. Here is AnnaLift Curly Conifer.

At Boerner Botanical Garden, we spotted this unusual specimen. It is a color variegated conifer with curly blue and green needles. July 4, 2024, Milwaukee, WI.

Really beautiful!

I'm honored! Thanks so much for the shout-out in the O Newsletter!

Your background really caught my eye in the gallery, and I had to take a closer look. Super interesting the way you parsed the layers. Did you give the rectangles a bit of colored shadow or stained edges? I am sitting here trying to figure it out, LOL. Anyway, I love it. Really beautiful image...

Wowza! That is a stunning annual container! I've been doing more of this style of gardening for the past few years, and this one is so vibrant and cheery right on your front porch! I am always looking for ideas. Your blending and embellishments are just perfect for a front porch photo. Treasured...

Amy, this is a beautiful and truly courageous page! I missed it when we were visiting our son. I know that caretaking was a struggle and an honor, and it was clear your mother was a beautiful person - inside and out - even though ALZ was affecting her. We are entering these struggles now with a...

OOhh. So pretty. I love the way you layered the matte green masks over the black and white map BG and then superimposed the extraction and other elements. Really gorgeous!

At first I did not recognize this in the gallery as one of your LOs, Tracy! It is so different from your usual style. You mention in the notes that you are still learning, but I think you have done a LOVELY job with this new creative style! Really impressive with the layering, blending and...

This is such an impactful layout, Belle. Really touching with the journaling and the shadow. I am so glad for you and your family that Rian's original diagnosis was inaccurate.

Just stunning! Sweet photo and lovely palette and clusters!
