Thumbs up Show Us Your Favorites!! (12-21-09)

THE FAVORITES THREAD IS FOR LAYOUTS POSTED LAST WEEK. PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE PAGES POSTED AFTER SUNDAY, DECEMBER 20TH.


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.

I really enjoyed this page by Michele (shellb). It's such a great collection of elements used in unique ways.

Oh, I'm so excited I'm first in line so I can post these two amazing layouts.

The first is by Jana Morton. Her "Six" layout had me scratching my head trying to figure out how she did this. I love everything about it.




And, there's this amazing piece of art by Aino. I would hang this in my own home, it's so lovely.



So many more in my favorites this week. The gallery rocks!

Thank you Susie for liking my page!

Here are two of my faves this week - and as usual it is always difficult to choose which ones to post!

Angela's use of Katie's brushes was superb.... look at this page:







I am a huge fan of Esther_A from down under and this page rocks:

Bonnie (bjwtville) Lauren and Sam



Jen D's Sixteen Street Mall

What caught my eye this past week are -

"Getting Festive" by Kathie02. I swear Kathie, if you had a complete Buddy picture book of all your scrap pages I would buy it and give one to all my doggy friends. He just makes me smile big.



And "Life8" by anxela. One page and it just screams emotion.

Adryane's "Days of December" was over-the-top amazing in its use of so many of the December goodies Katie has blessed us with! Very original use of such an amazing variety of elements:




And she's back with a vengeance! I've missed Phylis' art so I was tickled pink seeing her latest LOs in the gallery. This week's LO, "Like You" is so adorable, particularly that overhead shot of her grandman!

And this one by Terry is really cute!

As it turns out, I adored this fresh take and very clever use of alpha in Angela's iTunes page for last week.

Not to mention the perfect extraction.

Thank you Tracy for posting my page! It's so nice to be included in this thread. There are so many beautiful pages in gallery and it's such a busy time of year that I'm having a hard time keeping up. I added this one by Janice (quilter422). It is so beautiful and tranquil.



Wishing you all the happiest of holidays!!

I love this one by Merr. The colors are so rich and the poem is from a card her dad sent her. It's really lovely.

OMGoodness I have missed sooooo much! These are all fantastic!
I did have a page in my favorites before I got sucked into all the "get ready for the holidays already" frenzy. It's by Nath and I think it's wonderful.

Love the nostalgia of Jen's (Jen D) Sat. lift page! She took one lone angel from decades gone by and revived the ornament tradition and memory for her entire family!

Oh man thanks Patricia it means a lot to me that you like my page! And ladies these are some great pages! So grateful for this thread Cassie as much as I try to keep up with the gallery I always see some beautiful pages that I missed. If I don't get around to leave you ladies a compliment, please blame it on my mind, not my heart.
