SHCG: Loving the striped papers with the blue and white pops! That palm treee is FANTASTIC!

SHCG: I used the same sketch by Suzy and I think it's neat how you used it, too, but in combo with two other challenges which I just thought would be too much for me to take on. I like the pp title lettters, and your quilled tree is an absolutely adorable, new unique Sharon element that is perfect for this page, not to mention it adds dimension. I kinda wish the white circles were more colorful (like the ones in your bikini, ay mamacita!) and diversified like the ones in the bg of your hammock photo (love your hammocking lingo which I love to do, too, like pumpkin patching). Ya know, Mexify them a bit, maybe even throw in a quilled circle and/or sun. Cool how you turned pieces of the striped pp to make them horizontal. I wanna suggest something by way of photo placement/sizing on the right page, but then I'm thinking adding another embellishment that spans from under the flower, behind the journaling, above the bottom left photo on the right page, and ending at the bottom right photo to unite the spread, while adding volume to the bottom two photos I mentioned. If you can find netting similar to the hammock that would be cool. Speaking of cool, love the flower's dye job. Way to tackle your challenge head on!

SHCG: I am so jealous (repeat that 25 times! ;) ) I love the palm tree, that is awesome. I like what you did with the flower. The pp works very well with this LO. The circles are great!

SHCG: Cute! I love the little quilled tree, it works perfectly with the theme and the papers. I also enjoyed reading where you got your inspration from. My only suggestions would be to add mats to the photos in a solid color to make them stand out from the background more. I also think it would really add to the page if you added some sparkle or bling in the same colors as the pp, maybe to the center of those white circles on the left page or around the photos.

SHCG: wow you're really on the bwc roll LOL :) I love this page, the design and all the circles you got are great. You executed each blog visit perfectly and the quilled palm tree is so cool! great lo :)

SHCG: I wanna be on that beach with a drink and good book right now! I feel relaxed just looking at the lo! Love your pics! Great colors- the stripes go great with the blue! The title font is great! The palm tree-wow, I never done that , but feel very inspired by the palm tree! I feel like you should put something in the middle of the flower and have 2 more flowers right next to the palm tree! Great lo!

SHCG: First, I have to say I want to be on that beach. It looks so amazingly perfect! Be sure to pull this layout out in January when you need to warm up a little bit. Your quilled palm tree is delightful and I love your use of yellows, teals and blues on this page. I think however, and it could already be cut off by the scan, but I think using that color of blue you used on the left side somewhere else on the page would add a little something. Right now my focal point is that blue strip. If you have some additional blue flowers, I think they would look really cute on this page as well.

shcg: I love the sketch you used combined with all of the elements. The palm tree is made of definite win. Great use of so many different sources of inspiration for this.. Beautiful job Sharon!
