Thumbs up Show Us Your Favorites!! (06-20-10)

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

Crissy's "Remember" page really caught my eye this week. I love the way the black frames work with those great photos, and using the little photo of the empty stairs is a great way to reinforce the "saying goodbye" part of her journaling. It's a very cool page.






I look forward to seeing YOUR favorites!!

Oh my goodness I'm next to post.

Loved Adryane's Three Poppies. What gorgeous art, I would love that on the wall of my kitchen (as I said to Adryane, it would be the perfect excuse to then buy a red kitchenaid! LOL)



And Merr gave me such a big lump in my throat with Her Little Boy. Oh so true. When the parent becomes the child, I'm even starting to tear up thinking about it now. Gorgeous, stunning work Merr and treated with such reverance.

I loved this amazing Art Journal page by Adryane!



And I thought this one by Sarah (SarahDanyelle) was a brilliant use of this week's Ad Inspiration!

There were so many wonderful pages last week. I especially liked this exciting page by Lisa (lpate). Isn't Montgomery already photogenic??

I'm a big fan of Kelly's (mugsbigsis) work, and I love her page about home. It reminds me of the counted cross stitch samplers that I love so much.

I love Grads 2010 from "scullen" . . . it is so vibrant and the photos are so happy & colorful!



And, Splash from "CCofOhio" is perfection! I love the page design & I'm crazy over the titlework!

Thank you so much Jana! It means so much to be mentioned in this thread and it's an extra boost to have it come from you - such a source of inspiration for me! My week has been made and it's only 9am on Monday!

I had a lot of favorites this week (as always) but this one by Stacy was just so much fun!

Many of the above were in my faves file this week. I loved Adryane's 3 Poppies and her art journal, both posted above! I really admire Amson's art and will add--My Blue Teapot --so exotic, love the featured teapot in the circle, and perfect use of Katie's free papers!

Last week's gallery postings CLOBBERED my Favorites folder. I waited to post hoping that a good number of them would be listed already ... and they were. But here are two I loved that haven't been posted yet:

Amy's (aka mymalloryboys) LO, "M'm! M'm! Good!" just grabbed my attention and wouldn't let go. LOVED the clever twist on the Campbell's slogan for her son's name, and the "patriotic" color scheme was a standout in the gallery.



I was enchanted by Deborah Wagner's "Faces in the Window". I can so vividly imagine the emotional "good bye" that came after seeing and interacting with those children. And her LO carries it off sooooo well. Hauntingly beautiful LO!

I can't believe what a treat it is to visit this thread....once again, you're showing me gems I'd missed last week. My thanks to Carolee and Ang66 for mentioning my pages....it's an honor to be included this awesome line up.

My favorites folder is filling up with pages from Carol's gift book for her DH. This one is noteworthy for the story as well as the excellent design of the page. WTG Carol!

I'd better get in before ALL my favorites are posted!
The iTunes challenge is always so inspiring! I've loved almost all of the pages posted for it this week, but Mel's is a total cracker:


And this one by Anke of her father many years ago is so full of atmosphere!

Thank you, Kelly, for posting my page here. It really touched my heart to see my page about my mom in this thread.

I'd like to add two of my favorites to this post. I'm really drawn to bright colors, so Elena's CT Spotlight Myra page caught my eye immediately:




and kathy02's grow page also got my attention:
