    The pages are beautiful. I like the idea of a tropical flower. On a large scale.

    I wondered if you would use the red seal Nina, was glad you did.The blue page is very dainty I imagine a piece of cerise silk on the opposite page maybe with Chinese characters on it and a little border of blossoms. Thx Nina. Have a great week

    Beautiful pages yet again. I just love the way red and black look together! Your husband leaving the little bag in his pocket made me laugh, he did definitely have good intentions and it's great how he knows you so well and knows that a simple paper bag would make you happy! Great prompt this week!

    Thank you so much Nina, you never ever cease to amaze me 😳😳😳😳😳😳. I really really love ❤️ all of those stunning and gorgeous page’s. You are really really talented and clever too, you have the eye to put together beautifully all those different elements. Even that piece of waste from the printer has been used in a fantastic way. I really would have never seen any potential in that, but you certainly did, and it’s really really stunning too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

    Absolutely gorgeous! I was wowed by your red pages, but then you pulled out the Chinese rice paper die cuts!!! So jealous! Beautiful! Definitely fuchsia for opposite the bird page. It’s hilarious and very touching that your husband at least had good intentions regarding the bag, but you absolutely have to use it, AS IS!!! You could combine it with Louie paw prints as a tribute to the men in your life. 🤣 Have fun with your mother in law! Thanks for the great video. 👍✌️❤️

    Good morning ninaI can imagine you loved the pages with the card and the collage opposite to it, loved them too. It is so good when things come together so well. How nice your mother in law is coming to visit you , since she could not come last christmas due to omicron. It has changed for the better since then and we should be so grateful for that, being able to enjoy eachothers company again. I wish you a good time with her. Love and hugs lena xxx

    I love the way you coordinated the red shoes card with the opposite page of food and travel in terms of color scheme and theme. Also the die cut bird is really beautiful. I could see a plant themed page opposite that page. Definitely, something nature themed.

    Amazing pages! I am crazy over the moon for the rice paper die cut page. The colors are all so cohesive! What a treasured friend you have in Pam to make a gift of those lovely embellishments! I was holding my breath when you were gluing it down. LOL. Wish I did have a suggestion for the black and white page. I think you are right about finding something fuchsia, what? No clue. Sorry not helpful. TFS. 💞🌹🙏

    Beautiful pages, as always. Something that might help out when sewing on slippery materials is something that my mother did back in the 70's. She was making me a vinyl raincoat (she would try absolutely anything) and the vinyl, of course, was sticking to the feeddogs and sliding around under the foot. She fixed that buy taping some pattern tissue over the sewing line on both surfaces. It just tore off after she was done stitching. Worked like a charm. Have a great week!
