Thumbs up Show Us Your Favorites!! (08/17/09)

THE FAVORITES THREAD IS FOR LAYOUTS POSTED LAST WEEK. PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE PAGES POSTED AFTER SUNDAY, AUGUST 16TH.


Please show us pages that use DesignerDigitals products and provide a link (click here to learn more) . . . so we can see the details of the page in the gallery.

My favorite page this past week is "T-Shirt Memorial" by Laura (LauraBean). She did such a remarkable job on this page in memory of her friend. Thanks for sharing this and reminding us all of the important things in life, Laura.

Thank you, Cassie, for the mention. It's always an honor to have a layout appear here.

I loved this one by Kayleigh--the layering, the use of the repeated words, the alpha & cork combination, the fun photo all work together so well.

My fave folder is bursting this week!
I loved this one by Merrilee (digigrandma) because of the wonderful photos and journaling and her use of the design elements.

Thanks, Katrina, for mentioning my layout. As Laura expressed, it's always an honor to be in this thread and today is no exception.
Thanks for making my Monday!

Here are two of my favorites for the week:
Aino's "Play" - all I can say is "WOW, what a talent!" Such effortless whimsy!
Play - Digital Scrapbooking Ideas - DesignerDigitals


Also, "Magic Mirrors" by Linda (aka earlofoxford). Such gorgeous layering and brush work with that photo. I just looked and looked at this one!
Wonderful work, both of you!

Terri, thank you so much for including my layout in this thread. I liked the way it turned out, but it's always nice to have that confirmation from the wonderful talent here at DD.

I have loved viewing all the wonderful layouts sparked by the digi crops last weekend in San Antonio and Salt Lake City, and this one by Katrina is no exception. The wonderful colors and photography make it a prize winner in my book:

This page by Dorah made me smile. That duck caught my eye with his personality showing through the photo and Dorah's page showed him off fabulously!

I had Vicki's (oldvwblues) take on this week's Saturday Scraplift Challenge in my favorites folder this week. "Laugh at the Sky" has such a wonderful photo and photo treatment and I love the simplicity and colors Vicki chose.

Wow, thank you Terri - I am honored to be mentioned by you.

Here two of my mine from last week:

Kelly's fantastic page about Cassie - love everything about this one, and Kelly claims she can't do simple.... so not true, is it!!




And this one by Crissy is pure delight - I love the photo - makes me think of summer and the smell of cut grass and sour apples picked too early.....



So many wonderful pages this week....

Thank you, Kerry! I get inspiration from your heritage pages, too. I was pleased the way that page turned out and I'm so glad you like it.

Vicki (aka oldvwblues) posted this beautiful page with a wonderful quote and a fantastic photo to go with it.

I really enjoyed hguenthe, Heather's San Antonio Digi Crop album. It's a simple template but she embellished it so well. Each page was a treasure to view.

So many of my faves are already here but since there so many great los in the gallery last week it is not hard to come up with a few. So here are a couple of mine:
Just totally love Pam's not quite 365 with its wonderful colors, beautiful sunflowers and great combination of elements:

Also love Mozer's beautiful Flour Child:

And one more to add this week is the beautiful heritage page of her mama by the ever talented ExoGenia. I think her soft colors and mix of elements on this page are just perfect:

Ooops! I just noticed in going through the posts in this thread again, that I completely missed that Susie already posted the layout I chose from my favs.

I'd like to feature Kristin's (aka krutten) layout from her recent trip to San Antonio. I am so impressed at how quickly she put together pages like this for her trip album. There is so much of interest on these pages and especially the photo of her dd with Heather.
