Show Us Your Favorites!! (08/31/09) - Digital Scrapbooking Community

THE FAVORITES THREAD IS FOR LAYOUTS POSTED LAST WEEK. PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE PAGES POSTED AFTER SUNDAY, AUGUST 30TH.

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.

This week I chose a page by a fairly new member to our community, h_ryfa. I thought this page about her son's art skills development was really cool. Using the scanned artwork and her son's handprint as a brush makes this page a true original that I'm sure he will treasure.

I look forward to seeing YOUR favorites!!

Cassie, I know you too well. I knew that you were going to pick h_ryfa's page. I loved it, too! :O)

I chose artmidget's page Reinvent. I LOVE this page! The artsy look yet simple look; the softness, clarity, beauty, brushwork, texture . . . love it all. :O)

I just loved this one by Phylis (whatnext). Her blending and layering always amazes me

I'm showcasing Quiet Moments by rsowers, I love the overall feel and design of this layout AND the great way she snuck in that journaling. Lovely!

I'm going to jump in today before everyone else picks my favorites!! I just LOVE this one by Amy ... the design just jumped out at me and I love how she documented this aspect of her life. I definitely plan to lift this soon...

And this one by Katrina has already inspired me to document the good in my life, something I don't think I can ever do often enough. Plus, she's always got such great design ... and fabulous photos!! This is no exception...

I got so bogged down with work this week that I didn't get to see several days' worth of postings in the galleries - so I'm looking forward to this thread so I can catch up!
I absolutely LOVE this page by lesvrolyk for the Simply Inspired Challenge. I think it's so creative how she used the negative sleeves as the vases for the flowers. Plus, all those little elements . . . just a truly inspired layout!

So many pages...so many favorites!
Kayleigh..masterful layering, gorgeous sepia photo..perfection!

Mel's super sweet puppy is making me want to get another dog...or I'll live vicariously through her LOs! It's such a great photo with perfect layering.

Thanks for the inspiration ladies!

Thank you Doris for posting one of mine!

I love this one by Julie DeGuia - the mix of papers & colours are fantastic!

And this one by Heidi is soooo funky (in a good way!) of her & her hubby!

Last week was an amazing week in the gallery and I added a lot of layouts to my favorites.

First, this one by Aino. Elena commented that this needed to be printed on a canvas, and I totally agree!!

And this page by Katie, I love the subtle from behind blended photo and can't believe our little kelly is so grown up!! It is just such a gorgeous page!

I am being greedy now, but I added so many layouts and never usually get to this thread this early in the week!!

I love all the back to school pages Sarah posted last week, here is just one of them....

There were so many amazing pages this week. I've already put many of those mentioned in my faves for future inspiration. Here's another one by echogirl. I love how the photos and the journaling tell such a lovely story.

digigrandma · #24 (**permalink**) 08-31-2009, 08:52 PM

Gosh, Terri, I am honored to be included in your favorites! I'm a big admirer of your beautiful pages!

Here's one of my favorites from a favorite scrapper, Deanie! What I love is the contrast between the muddy mud and the pink, girly outfit plus that big bow is so perfect!
