Bonnie Ballentine

Hello, Everyone! Long time, no see...I have been a real slump...I am blown away by the creativity and talent I see here. Thank you for sharing your genius.

 

This is my friend, Rob, and his family. He works for Compassion International. The bits of paper (colors and images) on this template were taken from a mural on the wall behind Rob and family.

I can see the preview now...

The preview does show but the link works. She has a collection of freebies. Check them out while you are there. Thank you, Carole!

Our second Rumble In The Park was delayed by rain. Players went home and returned with squeegees, leaf blowers, towels and blankets. With a lot of pulling, pushing and blowing, we had a fun-filled tournament and day. I hope to create more memories of the tournament.

Another of my friend, Andy, and his wife, Fran. The primrose flower was extracted from a photo of primrose flowers in Andy's yard. Template W from Inspiration in the Campus...a part of the Diamond membership.

Springtime in Virginia. Lady 22, template 40.

This is our first Rumble In The Park tournament. Template by Miss Fish, Sweet Memories, 03.

Some of these pages were begun in June but completed yesterday.

 

Another Lady 22 template, #38. We have lots of Canadian Geese around here. These flew over the pickleball court while we were playing.

Here is the stamp...I added a pink background...otherwise it would have blended with the Campus background. The leather tag above is the logo of the clinic we attended.

The pickleball is my date stamp...not really a date, but...

Day 2

As everyone has said...beautiful creations here! I have enjoyed your trips and creativity. I have been in a slump and just couldn't get going. I did manage Day 1 and Day 2. After that there was no motivation, no mojo, no nothing. Yesterday I created each days' addition, date stamp, post card, stamp, leather tag but I still can't seem to work up the interest to finish the trip. Perhaps it is because I have created many pages about the trip already. Any way...here's what I have.

B = Blue Mussel...these can be found anywhere from the Arctic to South Carolina, and from Alaska to southern Baja California.

OK, Cassel...pickleball travel it is! I got a good start today...hope I can get time to finish it.

I did this challenge before...I should say I signed up for it...only completed a project or two. I hope to do better this time. I don't travel a great deal so I may need to do a couple of trips to complete the challenge.

My pickleball friend, Andy, and his lovely wife, Fran. I shared Memorial Day bar-b-que with them. The flowers were growing in his yard. Lady 22 Template 26. Andy and Fran were high school sweethearts...and still are.

Hi, Susan...thank you for your kind words. I have been on a template kick lately. They give you a good start, then you personalize them with you own papers, elements, photos, etc. Sometimes if you saw the original template and then my finished product, you wouldn't be sure I had used the template...like I said, it is a starting point...you go from there. There are also free templates from time to time on the web.

Annie recently said, "Bonnie I see that you are branching from your beloved pickelball ." I told her I was working on a page...here it is. Template from Lab 11 06 as are two of the fonts used. Sure is good to feel the grip of covid loosen. Wonderful to see friends again!

LOL @ Annie...actually, I am working on a pickleball page as I type...coming soon...at a campus near you!

Karon, I am so sorry to hear about your DIL. Holding you, your son and family in prayer.

 

Thank you for your comments. Like Annie...always appreciated.

 

Where in SC? That is my home...I live in Virginia now but South Carolina will always be home and first in my heart.
