Another layout from our pickleball clinic trip. I created the background paper during the mask workshop. Wordart from Creative Fabrica (paid).

And here is my Brother From Another Mother:

My story is similar to Corrie's. However, I was first born and, like Corrie, had a sister who did not survive birth. I do not remember the event at all. My parents did tell me about it but with no details...you now know what I know. My Mother was told by the doctor not to try to have another child...therefore, in a sense, I am an only. This layout will tell you about my Sister From Another Mister:

Birthdays should be celebrated all month!

A brush workshop would be great! Could you include Suz Shook's script for making custom brushes from pngs and for custom brushes from dingbat fonts? The mask workshop has been a blast! Thank you, Carole!

Happy birthday, Ann! Wishing you all the best. Hope your day has been filled with family, friends, fun...and some ice cream!

This photo was taken on the golf course after the clinic. Two of our number remained in Florida for a couple more days to visit friends and play golf.

Day 7...once again, 2 layouts. These are the 10 who attended the clinic together. There were also 30 ladies from Massachusetts. We played card/board games when we were not on the court and it didn't take long for the Massachusetts ladies to join us. We had so much fun...we are planning another clinic with both groups. I had all sorts of elements in this layout and decided not to use them. Does this surprise you, Doska?

I call it a pipe wrench.

I love the text...great quote!

Thank you, Susan!

Once I got into this, I couldn't stop. I placed the linoleum paper under the green paper that was used to create the linoleum. The linoleum paper only has a repeat of 2 or 3. I changed the blend mode to lighten.

Day 6 I really struggled with this lesson. I find this paper so busy. I didn't think black would work well but I like it OK. I did lower the opacity..
