Nancy's right - this is very heartwarming! You're such a sweetie! I'm with you on having layouts involving our family as my favs! And then there are those layouts that I'm amazed that I could do them in an artistic sense or when a photo turned out like I wanted it to - which is pretty rare compared to the number of photos I take. Here are some of my favorites:
Love this one of our Grandsons and Great Granddaughter:

This one brings back a fun memory:

I don't normally like whimsical layouts, but this one was such a challenge for me, it became one of my favorites:

I think Nancy took my words out of my mouth! Such a great video and wonderful LO's for various reasons. I might have to borrow that title about reaching out and giving a big kiss. Love that! I'll have to really look back to find some favorites that also give some meaning, although I know have favorites that highlight specific lessons that I happened to love and use over and over. I'll be back!

I loved the video Hummie.
I think my most favourite layouts are those of my family. My most favourite I thin is a paper scrapping page of my dad who sadly passed over when I was 8. It is a very simple black and red page with a great big red cutout rose on it and a little book that I wrote things in. The rose symbols the roses in the garden which he was so proud of and the only thing that I had of his is a "rose Society" badge which he always wore on his best jacket. This I have attached to the page also. Sadly I cannot show you the layout as I am without printer, scanner etc,etc at the moment.

One of my very favorite layouts is of my great-granddaughter, Kaysie, and her experiment with powder. When we were told the entire story behind this incident, the whole family was hysterical with laughter. Sometimes just saying her name, Kaysie, conjures up what she did that day. It was just a precious layout and I will always treasure it.

Awww Hummie, what a great video! And your hubby is hillarious! Actually, the two of you together are a great team!

Hmmm.... my favorite layouts.... *looking through my gallery*

I like making layouts for myself, but I get a lot of joy in making for others as gifts. My friends mean a lot to me, and I can't always afford to do things for them, but I have found that scrapping pages for them is something inexpensive that I can do, that I know will mean a lot to them.

Here are a couple of my favorites...
This one is a favorite, because I learned a lot about color isolation here, and it was so effective on this layout. It's such a sweet photo, and this was the perfect way to scrap it.


When I show my album to people, they always linger on this one. It takes them a minute, then all of a sudden, they burst out in laughter- because they finally understand the meaning of the title

I had to do another post, because I am limited to four images in my post, and apparently it counts emoticons!

I actually have this framed in my room, and several friends have asked for copies of it. I think I have had this printed six times. I've thought about taking it over to Maumee Bay, but I have never done it. This was my first real try at blending.


OK, I think that is enough for now. I could go on forever!!! Oh! But I can't complete my favorites without a favorite of Aiden. It is so hard to choose, but I chose this one, because of the meaning of the journaling.

I already got credit for this, but I'd like to add that by doing the LO's for my heritage album I am able to write down my family's history for my children. When one of my sons asked me to make a copy of the album for him, I was overwhelmed with emotion. When I make pages about my parents, I feel closer to them and really appreciate that feeling since they are both gone. And, of course, when I do LO's of the grandkids, I'm filled with joy and laugh at their cute little faces. I'm just so happy to have found this wonderful hobby!

Well, as you all know I am a sucker for my grandkids and great grandkids and here is one of my favorites of all my great-grandchildren. And like I said before----I love fantasy layouts!


I also love Christmas layouts because they bring back so many wonderful warm memories. Here is one of two of my grandchildren with Santa:


And then there are the layouts I have done for my dh's memorial album. Everytime I do a layout, all the wonderful memories of our life together come back to me.

Hummmmm----don't know why that last layout showed up so small----oh well, you can still see it.

I've had a good look through my layouts and picked this one.


I know it is very simple but I think that is more my style. The main reason though is it's a layout of my grandson painting my picture. I remember when he did it and still have the painting and that is why I scrap, to record those precious memories

I have so many layouts and nothing immediately pops to mind as to which is my favorite, but I have to admit that I really love this one because it has most of my favortie peeps in it.

Forgot to mention that I've had quite a few books published and given some as gifts. I haven't gotten any complaints! lol I've already gotten a couple published for Christmas gifts for this year and can't wait to give them out.

Hummie, thank you for sharing some of your memories with us - reminds us why we scrap, and of course, it is not whether it's a fancy page or would win design prizes that matters ... it's whether it preserves and triggers the memories, emotions etc that we want to capture. I don't have access to may of my pages here, but I'm attaching my most recent creation as I think my favorutie subject matter i usually oiur cats or dogs. I never seem to tire of scrapping them - and htere's always something new to say about them!

I didn't need to go through my layouts to know I love scrapping my grandchildren. They are such an important part of my life these days. I love the following of one of my daughters and her family because it is such an idyllic view of a family on a beautiful summer's day.


and I love the following because I think it shows the complete adoration of her mother by my granddaughter
