Onward and upward. Another sketch from Pagemaps. I wanted one for two photos. So here is another single pager. Hope you like it.

And here is my sample which will be cross-posted (more bonus points?).
I used a piece of paper in a Shimelle pad that I never dreamed I'd have a use for. The other one was used previously by covering up the rocket ship. In May, my brother and his GE Aircraft Engineer wife shared drinks with Jim Lovell and Gene Kranz at the GE Propulsion Hall of Fame dinner. Houston, we've had a problem (which was actually the message). I just had to scrap these photos with Shimelle's rocket. See? If you hang onto paper long enough, you'll have a use for it. I like my results though cI still can't cluster like Pam and Shimelle.

Loved this sketch Jen.

This is a double post! Woo-hoo! An explanation can be found on my Kill The Kit thread. I used my beloved Kelly Purkey Mon Ami kit. If only I could find another one. Sigh.

I really like all the tid bits of paper strips you used and your handwriting is so beautiful. Love that paper too.

I check there regularly now. It's of course hit or miss with them.

Debbie thank you. Those little strips that are meant to be cut off the edges of 12x12s are perfect for those tucked away edges.

Wonderful layout Farley! I love the way you used those little strips also. I tend to save them when I do scrap booking for that very use, just don't get around to using them.

So when I first read the sign I saw "Welcome to Midlife Bypass Area" :lol: (I need my coffee)

I love how you used all the strips

Both great layouts! Jen, what a wonderful occasion to document, and with the perfect paper to do it. Farley, I always enjoy your birding layouts; don't think I've ever seen that paper before.
