Scrapping an ATC with the word hate is not natural for me, but we do have love/hate relationships with many things, so here is the struggle between them. Thoreau's poem goes on and is more complex, but this is the part I wanted to apply.

I can remember doing blind scraps live so I really followed "blindly" doing each direction without looking ahead. Resulted in a really cramped cluster on the left, but this was so much fun. I interpreted paper elements as elements not full backgrounds.

This was fun to follow "blind" instructions to complete a LO. The day was 25 January 2025 and it was still pretty cold and windy.

Had various ideas for this that never quite took. Finally thought to do a really good time last summer.

I scrapped about this at the time, but this one focuses on celebrating for me and not the whole reception.

Love the action photos you've found and how you've put it all together. Wouldn't have thought lace and towhees could be so right. As always, amazed with your success with frames.

Well, when my BiL lived in New Jersey (1970-72) we called it the "Garbage State" Expressway :couchhide: but I'm with you that the Meadowlands is in New Jersey and it's the New York Giants of New Jersey and Jets likewise. But then we call them the Oakland Raiders of Las Vegas too, so maybe no...

Love the result of your lift! It's gorgeous.

Thank you so much! Have to share this with Elaine & her family. Don't overlook the fact that I was scraplifting Miki @Miki so I had a great inspiration.

Thanks so much. Really, that is what makes this photo special and then scraplifting Miki makes for a great start!

Everyone's AFib is probably different, but my DH is doing fine with it over 20 years since being diagnosed. They tried procedures to correct it, but they didn't change it. Since then, he has meds to counter the elevated heart rate, and a blood thinner to avert blood clots or stroke. And he's 84...

Thanks for the great ideas. I could use some help with finding old LOs, but not even sure WHERE (what device) old ones are on.

Here's one slightly more recent of DH and his sister done for the copycat challenge.

I was inspired by this wonderful page by Miki: and this is mine:

My DH and his sister when they were small. It was a pleasure to scrap this photo inspired by a real gem.

The layers and colors and all the detail are so wonderful and lend a great atmosphere to this adorable photo. Thanks for the inspiration in the January copycat challenge!

Lovely, rich page with great colors that go well with the snow blower pictures, but what a contrast in type of image. Love it!

This is one of my parents with their first child, my sister.

I've used newsletter freebies for mine.
