Great photo-less page. The background colors are perfect and I love the flattened look with the slight pop of shadow on the sweet butterflies! Looks like someone enjoying playing in the rain.. well done!

Love this Lynn... the title is precious.. love the layers and the collage effect on the background!

Beautiful and sweet page, Sylvia! I love all the white space and the clean and simple scrapping centrally focused on the page. The layering of elements and perfect placing is amazing.. Love the repeat of that cute little one from the collection.. she is like a fairy or an imp and is so sweet...

Thank you Flor! Thank you so much Marijke!

Thank you Grace!

journaling: Dad taking photos of Grandpa with the BBQ that they built in the backyard in Levittown. It had to have been around 1964. We are definitely a BBQ grilling family!

What a sweet page... Clyde is precious and looks like he is relaxing as he is tired. Love the clustering and the wonderful word art mixed in.. beautiful page!

Thank you so much!! Yes a very special bird.. There were many at the house and we would sit out on the dock in Dad's backyard and catch fish for them. It was really funny to watch.

journaling: "Wendell" at Dad’s. I visited Dad for what would be his last Birthday with us , May 2012, Wendell as usual was out waiting for us to fish for him! These memories of the Great Blue Heron always make me smile!

Love to go here, especially during the fall when the harvest festival is going on. The petting zoo with the animals is a nice visit too!

Thank you so much Jane! The King Neptune statue is amazing and I enjoyed playing with my photos!

Thanks Aly! I never scrapped those photos.. I had fun scrapping them!

Wonderful and fun sewing photos and how cool all these activities at the County Fair! Beautifully scrapped and how cool to use the family burlap sacks to create something new! Lovely page and photos!! So glad you can spend time with Lauren this way!

Thank you so very much!!! I love blending sketches into the background. Thank you for your comments,, they mean so much!

Thank you so much!! They are amazing!! One day the canal had a lot of them.. at least 20 with calves too!! Alas we sold Dad’s house in 2012 after he passed so i have not seen manatees in person since :(

Oh Aly, this is gorgeous and you look so relaxed reading the book! Great composition!
