Love this! Such great flower clusters on a masculine page!

Such a great boy layout! Love all of the gears and paint!

Il est trop content! J'adore!

Gorgeous clusters! I love those gears and the grungy background.

Awww he looks so happy and feeling so grown! LOVE this masculine page. Great grid work and stitching. I love it!

Look at that smile!! What a great way to document a big day for him and wonderful clusters.

Such a great boy page! I love the mix of flowers with grunge! So awesome!

Emily, my dear girl, NEVER trash a page of yours (because you said at the GSO that you almost threw that page away) you are one of the most wonderful story tellers, a beautiful person with a talent for art, colors or no color, it is always a delight and an emotional experience to come to your gallery. BUT never think you have to keep on the happy side....the reality of life is that (as you well said too) we have highs and lows, and then there is that fact that says that for one to be able to fully appreciate happiness we need to have gone through some stage of un- happiness..... so it becomes (to me at least) almost a necessity to scrap the bad moments....think about the generations that wil;l come after, how much the children of your childremn and their grandchildren will appreciate and love to read about their grandma, great grandma and know how amazing and how stronger and full of talent she was...all through the scrapbook pages she (which is YOU!) made!... If you can, try print some of the pages that tell your story (the family, yours or every kid or whatever you think is important to preserve) a photograph print last for over 100 years....the way technology is fast...not sure when the JPG will become obsolete.... you are a great LO artist, be ALWAYS proud of your pages, you bring so much love into my family, and I am sure most of the people here will agree with me
now onto this page! LOVE it!!!!! his smile brightens up the screen here, that hair line is SOOOO COOOL!!!!!!!!!!! love it when we can document these moments...and you have done beautifully (as always!!!!)

Oh wow! What a fun hair cut! He looks so cool and so grown up! Oh he must be so proud of himself. He looks amazing. :wub:
Love the photos and the colors you used. And I LOVE all those pretty clusters.
Wow! Wow! Wow! Just wow! :wub:

I like your take on the grid challenge! Your layout is super arty and messy in a good way!

Sugarbabe Cassie chose your layout for the scraplift challenge this month!
