Thumbs up Show Us Your Favorites!! (03-29-10)

THE FAVORITES THREAD IS FOR LAYOUTS POSTED LAST WEEK. PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE PAGES POSTED AFTER SUNDAY, March 28TH.


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.

Shirley (squeak) created the most amazing page this week. She credited my sketch tutorial, but I know better . . . there was a lot of "tweaking" going on! LOL

I just love the final effect of her sketching techniques. I know how much work it was, and it was completely worth the effort. Just LOOK at it! And the journaling is just wonderful. Thanks for sharing this with us, Shirley!




I look forward to seeing YOUR favorites!!

My fave this week was posted only last night. This page by Fiona is just beautiful and her creativity with the date made my jaw drop.

I could fill my favorites folder with pages by Jana Morton. Her creativity just amazes me. This page is off-the-charts cool / wonderful / inventive:

I just loved this one by Jana...seriously, to use the world map as a background was sheer genius. So many clever ideas to see in this one!

LOVED this one by Christine (CCofOhio). Can we not all relate to this one at some point in our life. The message is so visually perfect!

And here's the link to her page with link to her Shutterfly book--it's well worth a browse!

Cassie, you are so kind to post my page here! What a lovely way to start the week!

I have a couple of favs I'd like to mention. The first is Kathleen Summers' Decorating Cookies. Such a fun page!




I also really liked Mel's (Britgirl) us. What a beautiful photo of a beautiful mother and daughter!

I've had a hard time finding time to catch the gallery every day - too much work and not enough time to scrap. But still, every week I ask myself the same question, "HOW do I miss SO MANY fabulous pages?" Thank goodness for this thread!

I loved this page by Tracy for it's monochromatic beauty:
XOXO - Digital Scrapbooking Ideas - DesignerDigitals


And this one by Carol:
14 - Ashberry - Digital Scrapbooking Ideas - DesignerDigitals
All of her pages for her husband's book have been so wonderful. . . I could fave them all!

Thank you Linda and Sarah for the kind words. I cannot tell you how much that means to me and it is always such an honor to be included in this thread.

The gallery was amazing this week. Those birthday cards blew me away and I could post every single one of them in this thread but I'm not going to go in that direction (you guys are amazing). A lot of my favorites have been mentioned but these two haven't.

I love this page by Donna. It is beautiful on so many levels and her journaling is fantastic. As a mom to little ones, I found it so encouraging. Thank you Donna!


I also love this page by Brennie M. I love what she did with the photo and that photo is just precious.

Oh my goodness Barbara, thank you so much for including my page in here! It's my first time ever to be mentioned in this thread and I feel like I just won a trophy or something! I'm so excited I almost hollered out to my co-workers who would have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about!

I didn't make it to the Gallery as much as I would have liked this week, but I loved this colorful springy page by Jen - I'm a sucker for pink and green together!
