This is one that caught my eye when I was looking through her gallery today.

[Goshiki]

Thank you so much Lizzanne. The photos seemed an unlikely pair, but I worked the lighting hard on the gull statue and it turned into a nighttime, dreamy photo - perfect for my birdwatching cat.

I was drawn to this page because of the paper contrast and angel. Very striking.

Thank you Sue. This layout came together quite quickly with Robyns wonderful kit...

I would like to add my layout to this thread...I just love the deep colours and the blended background photo focusing on the hand playing the game of noughts and crosses :)

This AWESOME LO by Sailingsue just screamed to go in here!!! :love3:

(http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/showphoto.php?photo=329411)

[sailingsue]

I'm totally overwhelmed.....this LO "I'm Late" started out around one of my favorite songs from Alice in Wonderland with the White Rabbit singing "I'm late". It's a tune I frequently sing since I'm always running late. Didn't have a white rabbit for the LO so the Jack Rabbit pic was the closest I could get. I'm so glad Dogartist liked it well enough to place it in this gallery. I'm so honored. Thanks Dogartist!!!!!

Wow and thank you! I have to be honest, I had no clue what Weekly Wonder was. I thought it was another name for the favorite folder :o
After getting two notices mentioning it, I had to go look.
This is such a great idea!
I am off to pick one now, and thank you again! :hug:

Isn't this incredible???? It is by Edgy!

awww, thank you Peeku :hug:. I have to give the credit to Kay Butler whose LO I scraplifted http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com...22&ppuser=1832 and a template from another site.

I found this one by JB Carr on the New Layouts page , it has terrific gallery appeal. I love the page design, love the way the journalling is done,I love the blended background papers, I love the yellow behind the photo...takes the eye straight there, I love the little circles leading down to the photo, I love the subtle OOB work and I think this is a very worthy Weekly Wonder. It is also a Trendsetter entry.
