  1. Autumn Memories

    Autumn Memories

    I really liked a paper in the Between Seasons Collection by Palvinka Designs that has thick mixed media paint stroke on it. So I decided to create a layout that would let these paint strokes shine. I started with the paper, brought in my photo, and then the wood frame. Next I spent some time...
  2. Love Stays Beautifully Constant

    Love Stays Beautifully Constant

    When my husband and I were first dating, we often visited a state park near us. Parts of it were wooded and other parts they were letting return to a natural (managed) meadow. We loved seeing all the dried seed pods and frosty flowers, like this one. I've been feeling very nostalgic lately...
  3. Fashion Epiphany

    Fashion Epiphany

    This layout was inspired by a layout by Viv/profolly and by the AnnaLift Challenge that Nancy/NAdams posted. I loved Viv's layout was about fashion and sewing, so I decided to create a fashion layout, too. The challenge included using at least 3 of the 5 challenge colors, using stacks of photos...

  5. The Quiet Life

    The Quiet Life

    One of our cats, Tempo, does this thing we call "the gravity well." She manages to find a way to sit on the bed to where it looks like she's sunk in nearly to the floor. And makes it look oh-so-comfortable! Definitely a napvertisement.
  6. Our Rescue Girls

    Our Rescue Girls

    Introducing our two rescue kitties. Stripes is Alli (pronounced Alley) and solids is Tempo. For the CarolW Designs October 2025 Template Challenge. I'm more of a mixed media girl than a flower clusters girl, so I adapted the template to my style.

  12. Seaside Photographers

    Seaside Photographers

    The street photographer or “walking photographer” was a common sight on English seaside 'promenades' from around from the 1920s to the 60s. They would snap candid shots of strangers on the promenade or pier, in the hope they might buy the photo. Apparently they had mobile darkrooms so they could...
