Karon Dey Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Ann: great job on the Valentine coloring page. Skunk Love reaches a tender spot in my heart. My mother had a pet skunk when she was growing up and I remember stories she would tell us of it. The Sanctuary for Animals is a beautiful layout and reminds us of what is important. Alcapulco layout is beautiful as is the photo.
Karon Dey Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Bonnie: the road trip layout is awesome. Love the addition of the map. Best Friends is a wonderful layout and I do agree with you about the stacked fonts. Using a multiple photo template is a great way to use all those photos. Hahaha...Never would have guessed you spend your spare time playing pickleball.
Karon Dey Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Minka: I am in awe of your Journey layout It definitely is "Fabulous".
Karon Dey Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Val: Both of your layouts are adorable. Nice job on the extraction and your round wood frame turned out perfect.
Annie Tobin Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Val, you did a good job on the out-of-bounds technique and I just love the little quote ... Boy: noun - a noise with dirt on it. Sure gave me a giggle. And, terrific painted wood frame, well done Hon. :)
Annie Tobin Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Acapulco looks very inviting Ann and your background paper looks like pebbles under water ... very suited to the theme, well done my friend. :)
Minka Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Val and Karon ... Absolutely beautiful posts. I love all your lab work, too, Karon. Ann S ... great camel post. I am wondering, are camels friendly? I see it is a sanctuary ... but how do you happen on a camel here?? Lovely posts from Everyone. I must admit I pay attention to what others are doing because you can learn so much just from their example. Like with Annie Tobin ... and my recent encounter with Unsplash based on her telling of it. What a find! Bonnie, I did go check out the Pickleball. And yes, they are friendly! I try to put in what Carole is looking for ... but you know, she often says "Play in your psp ... you won't break it." Yeah, it might shut down from time to time, but so far, it hasn't broken. If it's there, I play with it. Some of the posts in the Love Challenge have been magnificent with family photos - especially some of the older photos accompanied by stories, too. I will tell you ... I don't have a lot of family left - and often it's painful to look at those photos. Guess my heart hasn't hardened enough for that yet. Maybe one day.
Bonnie Ballentine Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 Annie, I am old!..and proud of it. Took a long time to get here! Karon, I used Carole's scattered photos script for these recent pages. I also enjoy using templates...in fact I am using a template for a non-pickleball page I'm working on. I'll post it once it is complete. Minka, I'm glad you checked out the pickleball. Do you think you may try it? Let me know if you do. I sometimes get to Florida...and sometimes to Portland, ME. Maybe you and I could play a game or two. Another pickleball page from me...used the scattered photos script...Look at Michelle...she is off the ground in two of the pictures...and we are a senior group...older than dirt...some of us.
Annie Tobin Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 Hello Scrapbook Campers. This layout is by Tomosia and flower elements are from one tube that I have had 4ever, resized and coloured to compliment the theme. I love teacups and teapots and these photos are cute fishy teapots which were freebies on the web. The background paper is one of my favourite patterns by a Cassel tut ... scale pattern. Title font is A Bit Sketchy and the font used for the poem is Scriptys. Thanks for takin a peek. ;D
Annie Tobin Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 Bonnie, you will never be old my friend ... one day in the distant future you will just drop off the perch ... no old for Bonnie!
Bonnie Ballentine Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 LOL @ and with Annie! Great start to my day. Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!
Karon Dey Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 Minka: Thank you. And I hope you never harden. I still miss those I've lost but the looking at pictures does come easier with time.
Karon Dey Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 Annie: a darling layout. The teapots are so cute. I collect teapots but only Japanese for green tea. I love the inclusion of the nursery rhyme, so fitting.
Bonnie Ballentine Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 Annie, I have a friend who collects teapots. I use to get them for her all the time. She has downsized and moved to an apartment and no longer has space for her collection. She still drinks plenty of tea! Another pickleball page from me...this time it is Sandy and she can grab air too. One more pickleball page waiting in the wings and, of course, others to be created.
Ann Seeber Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 Carole/Cassel had us making polka dot backgrounds with our final mask assignment for the Love Story Challenge. Here is my latest great-grand.
Bonnie Ballentine Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 Annie, I told one of my friends about your "falling off the perch" comment. We laughed and laughed and I told her to use the comment at my Celebration of Life. Good one, my friend. Template by Miss Fish, Newsletter Freebie, 2-21, word art from Creative Fabrica. After my competitions were completed in the National Senior Games (2018) I visited local parks and hiked. This park is along the Rio Grande which had recently flooded. This area was part of the flood waters and away from the swift current of a very high river. I don’t know this lady or her dogs. They were having tons of fun. I was really struggling with this layout until I found the color challenge. After that it came together easily.
Bonnie Ballentine Posted February 14, 2021 Posted February 14, 2021 My last pickleball layout until I create another. Wayne is grabbing air too!
Karon Dey Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 Bonnie: pickleball is making its mark in NWFL. I don't know if you saw the newspaper article I posted but it was front page news, LOL. What a beautiful layout Rio Grande is. Maybe it was just fate that it didn't come together at first. Love the purple background on the your latest pickleball layout. Definitely striking.
Karon Dey Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 Ann: you did a wonderful job with the polkadot background. Logan is such a darling layout and baby. The faces he makes reminds me of Grumpy Cat. Soooo Cute.
Bonnie Ballentine Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 Thank you, Karon. I don't think I saw your newspaper article. When and where did you post it?
Annie Tobin Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 Happy to give you a laugh Bonnie ... what goes around comes around eh! Love this Rio Grande page my friend and those dogs sure do look to be having a ball. <3
Annie Tobin Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 Playing with the masks again (Day 7) and decided to offer some info on these boobies. Their beaks fascinate me, kinda lika a speckled rainbow ice block and such a contrast with their foot colour ... nature really is amazing. The font used for the titles is Chicken Butt ... go figure, ;D
Michele Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 Fun with clipart: for when you don't have much time or any ideas, but you must produce something. Font is Mia Bella, paper and gnome from Creative Fabrica, envelope from The Hungry JPEG, and cupid from NicePng. (Daily pic for my gaming group, of course.)
Cristina Posted February 17, 2021 Posted February 17, 2021 I haven't been here for quite a while and see tons of wonderful and creative layouts. Everyone has done an excellent job. Thanks for the inspiring ideas.
Karon Dey Posted February 17, 2021 Posted February 17, 2021 Well Bonnie, I guess I just thought I did. :(
