Default Show Us Your Favorites!! (11-09-09)

THE FAVORITES THREAD IS FOR LAYOUTS POSTED LAST WEEK. PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE PAGES POSTED AFTER SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8TH.


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.

Well, thanks to our weekend sale and chat event, the gallery is LOADED with great pages. I imagine this thread is going to be several pages long!

I really loved the creativity of dstn2be's "These Wings." It's simple, yet VERY eye-catching. It's a great combination of wordart, masking, and extracting. I just love it!



I look forward to seeing YOUR favorites!!

I loved this page by Debbie Hodge. We all know Debbie is the mistress of layering and making things look dimensional. But in this page she takes it a step higher with the collage elements she created. Take a look.

patriciaz's The First Noel wowed me with her wonderful photos, great design and lovely colors. I'm feeling the Christmas spirit now.

Great choice to start us off this week, Cassie! Can't believe I missed that page, so, thanks for the link!

Patricia, I put that layout of Debbie's in my favorites, too.

Here's one of yours I added last week because I love butterfly photos and your page is so pretty!
layout by iUma


also, I'd love to be in MsP's class when she teaches poetry using art pages she creates like this:

First of all I love, love, love this one by Kelli(mugsbigsis) because I love Santa and I love the great perspective of the photo.

I also love this one by Mel (Britgirl). Love the photo and all the deliciousness she created to surround it with. It so looks like she made this one in paper.

I KNEW you were going to post that one Cassie! Such a great page! :O)
Dorah, and Donna. . . I'm so glad you enjoyed my pages. :O) My faves folder has several this time around and I've narrowed it down to two.

I LOVE this one by Vickie. She did an amazing job with the 3K3W challenge!



And this one by JenniferH97 makes me seriously consider at trip home in October next year just so my family can have this much fun, too. LOVE what she did for this 2 pager!

I liked how Vicki completed the 3 kits 3 ways challenge this past week. Loved all the layering and the photo is cool!



Loved this one by Cassie for her 30MM challenge... still want to tackle the challenge myself. This is one chat I have NEVER been around for and one I really want to participate in so hopefully next time!




And finally I have been loving Pam's (blkcow) Yellowstone pages!

Loved this one by Erica - all the strips of journaling was just so well done and it was such a neat page to do for her son.

I'm loving the Yellowstone pages from blkcow as well. My goodness this one is a shot and a half. The album is going to be magnificent. Love the big pics interspersed with the smaller shots. Check out the gallery and read her comments in the description of this. WOW.

Oh my goodness...thanks so much to Julie, Vicki and carolee for mentioning my pages. I am so honored to be in such good company. I am giving a copy of this book to the neighbor who traveled with us for Christmas...she has never heard of a Shutterfly book and still uses a camera with film...so this will be a REAL treat for her!!

Thanks so much!
