Joyce Ann I can look at the file if you want to send it to me. I can PM you my email address. I just need the page.. don't need any of the additional stuff. Am I making any sense what so ever?
Just looked ..the yellow butst is above the blue and the stitching..it must be a separate element cause it has a shadow..but is it locked into position?
I do know about the "eye" for hiding the layer. When I isolate the yellow burst and try to move it, only the yellow paper behind the shape moves - not the shape itself. There's gotta be a way, I'll have to keep playing around.
Wish you peace, even if you aren't sleeping! Hugs!
Joyce Ann, if you are trying to move the shape and the paper together, you have to click on both layers to move together. I forget if it's the shift key or the control key when choosing layers. Once you have both layers chosen you can put your cursor on the yellow and they should move together.
I'm going to start going back through Jessica Sprague's lessons that I bought years ago since I just downloaded PSE 14.
My GF wants me to print out a picture for her that she sent to me off her cell phone so I need to play with PSE in order to get rid of the top and bottom menu items that came over with the picture. I have refigured out how to do the cloning again so that's a start
Lynn, you are back. Yay. Sorry to hear that you have problems sleeping and hope your meds help. Love your pages and you should put them in the gallery even if the faces are obscured...I do.
Happy creating and hope you get some rest. Take care and hugs from Oz
Happy Monday everyone...off to see the poppets after school

Thinking of you, today, Jayne.
Sorry, everyone, I haven�t been on much. I had a project I have been working on. Check my blog out to see what I was working on. I hope to post project on SCS, soon.
It sure is! The stash buster challenges is getting me to use up stuff I have been hoarding. The smooth pink I had didn't match the DP so I went with the messy stuff.

Just got over a yucky cold, thankfully the baby didn't get sick. Here are 8 more pages two double layouts and a 4 page layout. Hope you all have a wonderful love filled day!
Happy Wednesday! Looking forward to a fun weekend, I'm headed up to MI to scrap with my BFF :cool: It's getting me thru this week, it's been a little crazy
I did have some time to upload some recent pages.... I'm SO happy Sharon (smadson) has brought back the Stash Challenge. I've pulled out so many items I've not used for awhile ...
Sorry, everyone, I haven�t been on much. I had a project I have been working on. Check my blog out to see what I was working on. I hope to post project on SCS, soon.
SHARON .... wow, (almost) 52 years Married! That's wonderful! It sounds like your Valentine Date was magical (I did peek at your blog ;) ) I also think anyone who got a cute Valentine bookmark was lucky, so cute!

Had fun creating this page tonight using Monday’s TLC challenge. As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted to make it into a scrap page. Joyce Ann had the same idea and her page turned out great, check it out if you haven’t seen it yet. Finding lots of inspiration lately in the weekly challenges to expand them into scrap pages. This was fun and very easy to do and Gosh do I have a lot of colors of acrylic paint to use up! Sharon, you may want to add that to a future Stashbuster!
Thank you to everyone for your kind wishes for my op. All went well with the op and I now have to be a good girl and stay put for 2 weeks and for the next 2 days keep the leg elevated and iced. Unfortunately hubby says no crafting for me as I can't sit but where there's a will, there's a way LOL :rolleyes::p
Here's a photo I got hubby to take for my scrapping LOL. Sorry had to block out my personal details on my band.:rolleyes:;) As you can see, I scored another pair of red socks LOL.
Have a wonderful Friday and weekend. I will be hanging around a lot so will be on this site checking out your wonderful creations.
Thinking of Florida...another senseless attack and hopefully your Congress will finally do something to stop it happening again.:( Take care. Hugs from Oz

Happy Friday again.....Sharon....checked out your blog. How do you find the time? A belated congratulations to you and your hubby and how romantic that you still celebrate the proposal date. My hubby would say people get less for life.....oops, but we still celebrate the day we met too. You sounded as though you had a wonderful day.
What a kind thing you do for your bible study ladies. The tags were lovely and how can you part with your teacup and teapot collection? There's some beautiful ones there. I used to collect jugs and no one wants them so I intend to ship them back to the UK to my nephew who said he would like them. He likes antiques. The kids said when we pop our clogs they will simply get the big green bin and dump everything in....eek. :rolleyes: So this year we intend to go through everything again..famous last words, but my word is Commit lol.
Seriously, I am thinking of America today...I was reading an article on the stats for this year. It is heartbreaking. I wont say more as this is not the forum for this topic but I am sending lots of hugs although I know this won't change what has happened. :(Jx

Oh, Jayne! Bless your heart! Rest, and heal, the. You can craft!Glad it is over, and hope you will heal quickly and feel better!
You commented about how I have time to Blog: I am amazed at all the pages you ladies do, and cards, too, some of you have a lot more responsibilities than I do, but get so much done! I think of Lela with her traveling job and how many pages she gets done! I don’t know if I over think or what, but I just can’t scrap that quickly!
Giving up cups: my kids don’t want them so decided to do this. It was really a hit! Everyone just felt so special that I gave them a teacup! So, I think mother would have liked the way I did it instead of giving them to Goodwill.
Happy day, Jayne and everyone!

Thank you Sharon. I'm good...the bandage makes it look worse than it is. I'm resting lots and my hands are starting to get very twitchy LOL...I hobble past my dining room table covered in craft items and just want to make something. For now I have to keep the leg elevated as much as possible.
I agree, I also am amazed at how many pages some of the ladies create and especially Lela who works and is so busy. I also think I overthink things and I know my LOs aren't CAS and that is my problem. I look at everyone's LOs and wish I could do something similar but my brain is whizzing and won't stop when I start a LO...:rolleyes::p
I think what you do with your teacups and teapots is a wonderful thing to do and so special. All of my friends are decluttering and I doubt would want one of my jugs. I also have a collection of Lilliput Lane houses and will keep a couple for my grandchildren. I have been keeping a lookout in case I come across someone who would just like one or all of them. All I have to do now is check that my nephew still wants them and arrange shipping which isn't cheap. Maybe I just take one or two back with me when we visit..now that's a thought.
The sun is shining here today. I'm being good and lying on the bed and will check out all the wonderful creations. Happy day and weekend everyone jx

What a wonderful idea! My kids have also said they don�t need the hundreds of knickknacks I have and that is not counting the tea cups I had been collecting since I was a little girl. I have a China cabinet and 4 curio cabinets full of teacups. I will admit that I called �uncle� on buying/receiving teacups/knickknacks about 5 years ago cause I ran out of room where to put them.

Michele, I also collected teapots in the past! I have given quite a few of my teapots away to good will, and now am giving the more special ones to friends. I still may keep several. We just feel we need to start getting rid of stuff. It was difficult helping my mother move here when she was in her 80s. She had a full house of stuff of hers, her mothers, my dad's mothers. We did what we could. Then when she passed away, she still had a 5 room apartment and storage packed with stuff. And of course, much to my DH chagrin, I drug some here! So, we have large house and basement full of stuff! Not even counting my large craft room of stuff!!!! I am trying little by little taking carloads of stuff to Goodwill, and giving some to friends. I even cleaned out my purses. I had 28, and still have 14! Anyway, carried those around in my trunk for awhile letting friends take their pick. My DD and DGD had already taken several. Yes, I am a bag lady! My DH could not believe it! LOL I have a long ways to go.
I really downsized when I moved to the apartment from the house. Enough ornaments for 2 trees as well as 2 Christmas trees to Goodwill before Christmas that year. Any clothing that did not fit to a woman's shelter. A ton of stickers and crafting stuff to the school. My son has a full apartment if stuff and I just kept the things I wanted and bought some new furniture from the proceeds of the sale.
For Christmas I have all the special ornaments and a 4 foot tall tree. My son kept a box of special ornaments and a 3 foot tall tree.
When I was on the other sleep meditation that time shifted me... I was awake at night and slept during the day.. I got very analytical. I went through sentimental stuff I had kept from when maman passed. Got rid of 90%. Her costume jewelry being in a box did nothing. The twin girls got all of it for play day. The special things are all organized in a memory box.

OMG ... you could be my sister from another mother ... LOL! I'm trying to clean stuff. We had a bad year last year with my husband's health but he is doing so much better. I decided we needed to organize/clean and started in the craft room. We bought new office furniture and moved hubby into what is his "I love me room" with all the stuff from his office when he retired. He rebuilt my craft room last month and I was able to organize all my craft supplies. That's when I realized I really don't need to buy anything for a long time. I have unopened packs of paper from 10 years ago!
Next is going to be my closet. I have a lot of purses and use 1! And a ton of shoes and I only wear a few.

I think from reading your posts that we ladies who have a craft addiction also have a shoe and handbag and general hoarding addiction......I know I have. :rolleyes:;)
I even keep things such as cardboard boxes now for my craft and bits of string....I look at things differently. So sad and I know I must stop as it never gets used. I wear the same shoes and use the same handbag until it falls apart...lol. I am trying this year to say....get rid, declutter but it's so hard. I find things I haven't seen for years and fall in love with them again....and back into the cupboard they go Lol.
Whilst we were building our home, we rented an apartment for 18 months in the city and stored our stuff. Gosh it was liberating. I couldn't craft as there wasn't room and when we moved into our new home and unpacked I was so happy to see my things again but half of it is still in boxes in our garage as we changed our style of home and have mowhere to put it all. How can I part with paintings people bought us and we don't have enough walls in this house to show them off. We did think we would,put them up in the garage...lol. Gosh it's tricky. So many things boxed up collecting dust...eek!
Take care and happy day :cool:
