Hi @LSlycord! What a cool hammock! It looks like it could be a tent, too? Lovely place to listen to the water and enjoy nature. It goes perfectly with the sentiment that "not every story needs to be loud." :kitty1:

You showcased your photo perfectly in this layout! I can't imagine anything better. I love how the photo can be see through the window and how it's blended out behind the open window panes. I love that ivy along the top and the subtle text you blended in to the background. Amazing job adding the...

@snojewel showcased her photo perfectly in this layout through an open window! I love how the photo can be see through the window and how it's blended out behind the open window panes. I love that ivy along the top and the subtle text she blended in to the background.

This is one of those layouts that takes my breath away. It's like the paper was custom designed for this specific layout. For all that gorgeous word art journaling. For the terrific fall photo and the corner cluster you built from leaves and ephemera. This is so terrific! It's a Standing O from...

This layout by @BoatLady is one of those layouts that takes my breath away. It's like the paper was custom designed for this specific layout. For all that gorgeous word art journaling. For the terrific fall photo and the corner cluster you built from leaves and ephemera. This is so terrific!

This is a deceptively simply layout. Looks easy, but it was probably tricky to pull off so well! I like your corner border. I'm not so great at flower clusters but this is awesome. And I like your cheerful flower photo, too. I could get lost in this layout for a while. Worthy of framing! :lovey3:

A fun, cheerful birthday party layout! I like how you used your corner border to balance the focal image and title. :heartpumppink:

This layout by @Cinna is beautiful! I love the color and texture of the background paper. It really draws attention into the texture of your photo. Beautiful corner cluster with the mushroom, owl, and paper-punched confetti. And the perfect amount of journaling, too.

You've created such a gentle, contemplative layout here. I love how the photo is of a girl, lying back, looking at the sky. The photo frame is pretty terrific with that photo. And I love how you tucked her into a lower corner border, giving her all that space above her for contemplation. Truly...

Terrific mixed media layout! I love the color and texture of the background paper. It really draws attention into the texture of your photo. Beautiful corner cluster with the mushroom, owl, and paper-punched confetti. And the perfect amount of journaling, too. Congratulations! It's a Standing O...

What a perfect layout for a corner border! How cool to be able to trace back that many generations. I love the barn, the goose and the chicken, the horse, and those gorgeous flowers. Terrific corner! :lovey3:

So silly! I like how you've grouped the ephemera into the border in the lower left corner. The stitching and sequins are nice touches. :kitty1:

Oooh! The story I'm making up in my head is that you have hot cocoa in the cup to go with those lovely cookies! I love all those red stars and how you've used the blue label outline to make a design! Very creative! :kitty1:

Hi, @MemmieNelleke! This is such a fun layout! I like the twinkle lights. A happy home is such a blessing! :lovey3:

Hello! I like how you used your corner border to balance the dark imagery of the layout. I especially like the different stamping - the butterfly, the leaf, and the botanicals. I also like how you put a card behind the dark eye clipping mask and then gave the eye a frame. :beatingheart:

Awww! Such a sweet story @*sylvia*! I love that the main character is a little stone bridge who dreams of adventures. Makes me want to read more! Very beautiful. :kitty1:

I'm really enjoying everyone's layout for this challenge! I'm not terribly great at floral clusters (yet!) and there are so many good ones! I went a different way...

I've been having fun with Lorie Davison's amazing Somewhat Perilous Sea Voyages of Cealio (Within Everything in it!) collection because it has so many fabulous ocean scenes and papers to work with. To create this scene, I made an image of a Sea Elf in Midjourney (AI). The sea elf and the water...

Hi @mary-lynne! What a fabulous tradition! I love how that frame really calls attention to your kids and their wonderful smiles! I like how you used a vertical cluster to balance them and the tree. :kitty1:

Congratulations! Your layout will be featured in the next Friday's Cheery O Favorites blog post. :kitty1:
