I hope others will add photos of their items to the threads I have started.

This is the LO I did for Karin for the photo I got for the swap. Karin and Lily are
at the aquarium and I didn't have any fishy paper so went for colours instead.

She did. It was perfect, absolutely perfect ( and I did get a bit emotinal at seeing it). The colours in the paper were a bang on match for the Yellow Tangs in the background.

I wanted this picture doing as so far I haven't done any LO of just me and her.

Thank you Steph. xxxx

I liked all the brads you used to make the lace into flowers at the bottom, well that's what they put me in mind of anyway, the colours were bang on and the papers just right for this pretty pair.
I thought it was nice to see the names on the LO too as people often don't put their own names in their LO's.

Very effective.

Oh I didn't notice the stamp bit on the edges of the striped paper. All the LOs were lovely, so well done. Its nice that we all put so much thought and effort into it.

This is the LO Patty did for me. It was taken from when we went on the Rhine quite a few years ago. It was a misty day and I like the paper Patty used to show this.

I've never crafted like that before either Gill. I didn't mind working with people round me,
but it is distracting because you want to see what everyone else is doing Rolling Eyes

This is the lovely LO Jo did with DD's pic, a bit scary the pink she has on, but Jo was very enterprising and it's great, we're both really pleased with it. I still haven't done the journalling, but I will, I promise.

Maria the Alamo was very interesting to look around. I didn't really know much about it before we went , but found it fascinating.
The LO Alison did for me is great.

I found it quite difficult to do a LO with someones else's photo , especially as I got Kim's and she was sitting next to me!
