you ARE the master of using extraction to create stunning pages!! I'm off to "experiment!"

that is one fabulous extraction! I am definitely scrap-lifting this idea, I have two boys (7 and 4) so I'm sure I have lots of photos of them that I could use!! Thanks for the inspiration, into my favs!!!

another great photo of my two adorable boys just aching to be scrapped ... this one of them goofing around inside the tent while dad was still in the process of getting it up during our annual camping trip to Hartman Creek State Park in WI! All TaylorMade: Background paper and paint elements...

LOVE this! awesome photo editing work!

great job with the blend/extractions! it makes for a simple, clean and totally awesome "boy" page!

quick page made for a friend using TaylorMade's "Taylored Sketch No.3" with slightly altered word art added from TaylorMade's "Leave Your Mark" collection.

This is one of a series of three lo's I did for my good friends to display in their baby's room. Background paper is a color-adjusted version of one of TaylorMade's "Blending In" paper collection. Font is "antique type" downloaded from dafont.com.

This is one of a series of three lo's I did for my very good friends to display in their baby's room. Background paper is a color-adjusted version of one of TaylorMade's "Blending In" paper collection. Word art is from Anna Aspnes "Children's Sayings & Quotes No.4"

inspired by TaylorMade's "white space" challenge. I took this photo of my good friends in their 8th month of pregnancy of their first child. It is one of a series of three lo's I did for them to display in the baby's room. Background paper is a color-adjusted version of one of...

what a spider-ific lo!! I'm working on something similar for my sons, but with star wars! thanks for the inspiration!

I really love the bottom sand border, did you create this yourself with a photo? I'm definitely going to have to scrap-lift that idea! I love the recipe idea too ... I too have used one too, also on a "paradise" type lo of the 10-year anniversary trip to Jamaica with my hubby!

I LOVE the lego lineup at the top and bottom!! what an awesome idea!!!!!

what a perfect lo for an incredible photo ... this is simple and powerful. it's so easy to scrap the "good" things, I often forget the "bad" ones are just as important, kudos to you!

I was honestly intimidated by the beautiful photo I captured of my youngest boy, Luke (at right) and my friend's girl Ellie while we were at the zoo together last fall. I'm not sure it does the photo justice, but the sentiments in Leiko Beck's "Hello Love" word art fit so nicely, I...

Finally created my own version of Sue Cumming's stunning "Life Redefined" LO. When I saw this template, I knew it would be perfect to use for photos of my favorite home away from home, Negril Jamaica (Couples Negril). I replaced the "enjoy life" word art with the "Irie...

photo of two of my friend's brittney's while hutning a few autumns back. Pretty much used TaylorMade's Intentional Pause template without any alterations. Background paper is a freebie from ?? (it was downloaded before I kept track of where I was getting them from, so I don't know!)

TaylorMade Design's "In The Company of Men" template fit this photo of my husband and two of his friends perfectly - once I altered the preset journaling a bit!
