Great page! Love the description of "I was busy doing nothing (and it was glorious). Plus the use of the sticker is so cute to go with the serious look on the cat's face. Great take on this challenge!

Love the stacked papers and love that image of the boy, girl and teddy bear. Quite brilliant use of these elements and pictures to represent the theme of "Let's Start the Journey".

Oh, I love this one. Love the paint splats and the little strip of paper saying "Young and Brave". Especially love the word next! Great details.

@faerywings this may be the first time in all of the years that I have known you that I've ever heard you talk about saying no to anyone! :bowdown3: Such progress!!! And it sounds like yesterday was great. @bcgal00 I sure hope that you can find a way to include some scrapping with everything...

It's been about 2 years since I scrapped and I am so very glad to be back to doing it!

Love all of the white space. Beautiful flower cluster in the bottom corner. Gorgeous masking. And love the title work.

Thanks @Vicki Robinson. I appreciate you so much!

Grrr...I am using PSE 26 and have Windows 11. I have slowly figured out how to create a simple layout. So much to re-teach myself. I have saved the PSD file into a JPG for adding to my next book of scrapbook memories. But for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to change the resolution...

Quotes are always one of my favorite things. This one seems like a good one for this stage of my life. "Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time."

I love theater...but haven't seen a lot of it recently. This is one that I would like to see but haven't. I have seen quite a few Off Broadway productions when they come through Des Moines and I have seen on Broadway but sure want to do more. But, the very best in my mind was when we were in...

Go check out this Standing O! So very well deserved.

Love this one by @dsewbiz. She is the queen of artsy layouts while telling stories of her life. I always want to go spend a day with her after looking at her layouts.

I love how you combine artsy and storytelling and beautiful photos! You are truly an artist. And I love your two page layouts. I feel like I may need to go back and look through your galley to check out your life...are you moving? Love the color palette and the crocheted pumpkins!

What a stunning page! I really love that photo...what a beautiful way to start the day! Love how you used that twig wreath to frame the picture and really love the bits of lace. A very satisfying page!

So very happy to hear that the meds are working. That's a lot of good sleep!

Good morning ladies. Brian asked what my plans were for the day and I said that I might not have the energy to do anything, Sad but true! I think that last week with my sister-in-law took a bunch out of me. But, I'm retired so anything that needs done can wait another day. I do think that...

I love it! I love that idea of "Maybe Half and Half but never middle of the road." Amazing page!
