Oh would I love to sit on that bench and talk to my Mama too!! Such a beautiful scene!

Your journaling brought me to tears. Your entire page is so beautiful and I love the sketch effect on the photo.

Guess what Tracy?? You are an AJ scrapper!!! I am loving all your uses of the stamps and your pages are always driven by the emotions of the topic!

Laughter is indeed so important and ties us together in the heart!!

Kids indeed are such a treasure of ours!!

Those eyes are striking!! Again - you comfort my soul with your Bible quotes!

I have commented on all your wonderful pages up to here! Thank you for joining in on our challenge!

Thank you my friend!

Thank you so much!!! I am so happy that I found that picture of Michael's parents at their 25th. I had a picture of my Mom and Dad on their 25th, but when it came time to make the page, the photo didn't work as well as both of us with the cake. My parent's one was very posed.

I can't believe I didn't think of this imagery of a quilt!!!! Wonderful, and congratulations on your Standing O - well deserved! !

I knew this page was going to be fun and bright when I saw your journaling! We had Prang watercolors in grade school too - but I was never good at painting!

Oh, this is achingly beautiful! I am so sorry for your loss. You scrapped this very gorgeous and heartfelt.

Your page is so fun!! You are great at blending and layering!

I don't know it if was joined in the element or not, but the intertwined daisies through the hands and the nets show so much connection both to humans and the fauna of the land.

Amy - this is fantastic!! I love the color palette and any page that has a fat little birdie has my heart!!!!

That spiral text is amazing!!!!! Your page gives me a sense of calm and connected to the vastness of the universe!

And the entire forum says "AMEN!!"

The threads are perfect to infer stitched together, and I was really entranced by the sepcial little butterfly cluster - I almost missed it!!!

I really love that you used the visual of healing!

Your picture and imagery could not be more perfect!! The arch at your door, the outreaching hands - all of it works together to make a wonderful connection page.
