Oh my goodness, Max and Scout are just adorable together! My little neighbor was 2 when they got their dog and they are "growing up" together - he treats her like another puppy and she treats him like a sibling. They play so cute together and sometimes Emma will go into his crate with him. Max and Scout look like siblings too and Scout looks like he's so patient with the little one. Your photos are awesome and I like your blended background. I always like the little Scout embellishment you use on his pages, too. -
Michelle looks so young here and that's a great photo. I really like your framing and how you divided the photo and your use of the green paper to match her sneakers looks wonderful. -
Oh this is so cool and as Jane said it made me smile. Your text around the photo came out great and it does look like the wind blowing through your hair. Your journaling and is wonderful and I like the swirls around the page and how you divided it. I'm so happy you posted this here for us to see, it's nice to see something fun. 😊 -
Well, the results are so beautiful and your tasks are wonderful. At least they can be finished later but while we're still here, I'm enjoying the posted ones... 💜

What a sweet photo, I love the eye contact between you and the baby. I enjoyed your journaling, you really do have a most cherished job and an important one with so many rewards. I like the way you set up your page and the soft colors you used here, it's so pretty. -

Hmmmm.... Seems very pertinent for all of us right now. This is magnificent Kelly - your creativity knows no bounds and your executed your idea so beautifully. I really like the Phoenix and the smoke and your quote is awesome. -
Fun photos of your Grandchildren, they are adorable and the photos so cute. I like how you used the stamp frame and the pieces you used behind them. -
Roselynd sure is a smiley pretty little girl with her glasses and hairdo - I dee her hair has grown! Sweet photos and page. -
Oh, Anne Marie, your journaling is so heartfelt and brought back so many memories that it made me tear. I like how you used the original ScrapGirls purple, sure do remember when we were "The Purple Place" and Synxdee was one of our original designers. Your title is perfect and I really like the font you used. Your layout is beautiful; what we all have here is magical indeed... Nice idea to use products by SG first and last owners. -
This is so cool and me to wonder what photo treatment you used? Your photo is awesome and I love how you created so many "splash splashes'. Cool title and I also like how you show a closeup of the duck's head. -
SO happy to see you here and posting, Ann. And, of course, I remember you liking ATCs. I've hear that about Cardinals from so many people and you depicted it so beautifully. For sure you haven't lost your touch. Not sure you saw this thread, but if you'd like to send your email address to share and keep in touch, HERE is that thread. -
Ohhhhh.. You always manage to say what is in my heart, Lynne... No beer here either but the crying part I think is true. All those restrictions all over are just so.... Restrictive. We were so spoiled with ScrapGirls. I still can't wrap my head around it not being here in a very short time.

You've given me so many laughs through the years, Barbara. I'm glad I can return one.

Thank you Barbara, I was just over there looking and couldn't find the requirements. Those are pretty high, so by including retired you mean you can't use them? I like their feel but agree it's too big and I'm afraid we would get lost. I also agree about just Art. Oh well, I guess we'll keep posting until we can't... 🥲

PRESERVE the PAST_Favorite Place DBL Layout

That is so cool, I actually thought you had a camera with a long lense. Amazing to think they got that used to you all moving around, wow. The photos are really beautiful and now even more remarkable. -
You all are doing such a beautiful job on your books with gorgeous layouts - I'm really enjoying them all.

Thank you. I had the book made a month before her birthday and was so excited I had a hard time keeping it a secret. So I brought to show Julianne's Grandma one day, she loved it. The day before her first birthday and party I asked her parents if they were opening gifts at the party. When they said yes - I brought out the book all wrapped up sot they could look through it. They were so touched and happy as they've loved the individual layouts online, so this was wonderful for them. I let them look at it then because I didn't want them to open it first at the party only to have to move on to the next present while everyone else looked at it before they had a chance to. Then I rewrapped it and it was opened yet again at the party. I put premade layouts into Shutterflys templates previously, but I've never filled pages with them. I think they might have a larger template (not sure) but even though this one made my layout a little smaller in size it solved the bleed issue. I was wary of all white backgrounds but they worked perfectly for me and looked great. Having the layouts already made was a game changer - so quick to put together. And I like the 10 x 10" size. Not too small as I'd feared, a perfect size.

I so enjoyed your journaling and remembering the past, some of which I could so relate to. I remember black and white TV because the only way we got a color TV was when my mother won one in a church raffle - my sister and I were so excited. You used perfect embellishments for this layout and I like how you journaled in different places, very creative. -
Such wonderful reminiscing and awesome photos, they are really treasures and you have scrapped them that way. I like how you used your embellishments and I would never think to use a patterned paper but you've done it so well and it really shows off your photos beautifully. -
Awwww.. Stuart is adorable and so little and I can see the family resemblance with Lucy and Max. Precious photos and I like how you scrapped them on a beautiful cluster and your blended background is perfect for this page. I am going to really miss your pages, Jane. -
PRESERVE the PAST_Favorite Place DBL Layout

Your photos are absolutely gorgeous, Kathy! What great shots you got of the bluebirds, I know from trying at my sister's how skittish they are and I have many of just a tail as they swish away. 😬 Your garden is lovely and looks like such a peaceful place to sit and relax. I really like the background you chose, it's so pretty and shows your photos off so well. -
Wow, that is a lot of monarchs, it's wonderful that you do that. So nice to see the warm Florida sun and hear about swimming when the cold still persists here. I enjoyed your journaling and looking through your photos and I really like the colors you used here. I'm going to miss reading about your weeks. -
Fun page and I really like your use of shapes. Your photos are awesome and it's so cool to see those two as littler ones. Great saline clusters, too. -
Thanks for keeping us informed about your experiences and learning. I was not leaning towards GingerScraps because it seems so confusing, but someone told me they have a Gallery for non-GIngerScraps layouts. If SG went there we could do challenges and post there to start and then maybe branch over. I'm not sure what their layout requirement percentages are - that stuff is so alien to ScrapGirls.

Tracy, I enjoy you so much, thanks for making me laugh! 🤣
