Thumbs up Show Us Your Favorites!! (05-24-10)

THE FAVORITES THREAD IS FOR LAYOUTS POSTED LAST WEEK. PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE PAGES POSTED AFTER SUNDAY, MAY 23RD.


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.

There are SO many great pages in the gallery this week. This scraplift by Amson from an all-day chat challenge really caught my eye. I just love the photograph, but her presentation of it is stunning!




I look forward to seeing YOUR favorites!!

Amy has been doing this incredible wedding album for her niece which she posted yesterday. This is the cover and if this isn't the icing on the cake, I don't know what is....absolutely stunning!

I'm a big fan of Crystal's and this one is great, I can't believe she did it in less than 30 minutes!

I could have listed dozens this week! I'm going with Adryane's page about her son--Music Makes Him Smile. This work of art made me smile!

There have been so many wonderful pages in the gallery this week. I loved this page by Terry (MIDA78466) for her wonderful use of color and the sweet pictures of her granddaughter. It just screams summer.

Everytime I try to write something coherently about this lo by Angela. I'm rendered speechless. Thank you for creating it. Here's to soldiers yesterday and today that keep us safe. May we never forget.

There were so many fab pages in the gallery this week, and I'd missed some of those listed so far.

Something about this one by Phylis just really amused me, love the art journal gallery!

I loved this one by the one and only - Cassie. The colors in the photo are fantastic, the design is superb.
I love the simple white background, the elegant way she framed the photo with her journaling...
The little strip of patterned paper and how she divided the photo in two to make it interesting. Just perfect.

My favorite this week is Marnie's Africa Book.
It is incredibly artistic and moving. I am awed by her journey and the way she documented it. Truly the efforts of a special person. AMAZING work!!

I'm gonna be really bad and pick 3 favorites. I really loved everything in the gallery this week!

I totally needed one of these slushys after seeing Anke page! Oh so yummy and fantastic colors!


And Anna's 1pm chat really turned out some fabulous pages! This one from whatnext I thought was absolutely stunning!


I also loved Crystal's Relax page. That girl was popping out some fab pages this weekend!

I've been a long-time collector of Designer Digitals products, but not really active in the Gallery or the Community until recently. I've been totally blown away looking through the Gallery over the past couple of days - there are so many talented people here!

I'd like to add this page from Marnie to the list - I loved everything about it
