This week, I went back and worked on my intro page for our Mammoth vacation. I used some old papers gifted me by a neighbor, and I actually love the pink and brown color combo with some added touches of blue and orange. Hope you like it, too.
On another note, ever since I got a new computer, the very old software I use to stitch together the scans of my layout has not been working well. Somedays, I can get it to work fine, but other days, it tells me I don't have enough memory to do anything! If you have a great suggestion for stitching together scanned halves of layouts, please let me know, because I am getting super frustrated (and don't even get me started on the challenge of putting a double page layout on a 24"x12" canvas)!

Beautiful. You have a lovely blog 😊 Warm greetings from a 68 year old lady living in Montreal, Canada ❤️ 🇨🇦 😀
I love your beautiful 2-page layout, Cheryl! I really like the color combo and all of your wonderful photos! And I especially like how you incorporated scallops onto your pages. Thank you so much for joining us at Challenge YOUrself this month! (And I'm sorry - I don't know anything about stitching together scanned layouts. I hope you get answers - It must be so frustrating!)
A lovely creation Sheryl! Thanks so much for joining us at Challenge YOUrself!

Wonderful double page LO! Great design and use of all those photos. Love the die cut holiday embellishments. Thanks for sharing with A Cut Above's April, "Anything Goes With A Die Cut" Challenge.
Really loving your use of 3x4 cards!! I will definitely use this idea. You always have such great inspiration.
