Hi!  Thanks for stopping by to see this week’s Gallery Standouts!  We sure do have amazing scrappers at ScrapMatters!

First  we have a fun layout chosen by Jaye.  She said, “This page by chelisa grabbed me for the sweet photos and how crisp it looks. Love how the colours pop on that white background yet she softened it with the patterned paper behind.”  I love that she scrapped a fun photo and a serious one to show her daughter’s personality.

Michelle (msbrad) gave a shoutout for this beautiful layout by karen32.  The colors are perfect for the adorable photo!  Michelle said, “Check out this beauty of a page using the Jan 12 – Saturday Special tutorial. Love the combo of papers and the results!”  The Saturday Special tutorials are great for trying new tecniques for awesome layouts like this one!

Amber nominated this layout by Emmy (emmyxlou) and said, “Wow, Emmy – you have totally been rocking this kit! Love the huge title and front and center photo! Way to go!!”  I really like the paper stacking and cropped photo.  When my daughter saw this layout on my computer screen, she said she loves this song and to include this great layout in today’s list!  I have a wise daughter!

I can’t stop smiling when I look at this gorgeous layout and that cute little heart breaker!  Emmy chose this layout by Nonna2Dreja, and said, “I really love everything about this page!! The pocket cluster, the arrow in the hand and of course, he is so adorable!!!”  Absolutely perfect!

Jadelyn (scrappycharmer) treated us to this great layout that was chosen by Linda (lindabglw).  “Wow – this is gorgeous! Love the colors you used, the paint behind the photos, the string/ribbon, and the pretty floral clusters.” Yes, Linda loved it all, and so do I!

Amber brought this fabulous layout by GlitterQueen to our attention.  The layering and monochromatic greens are super with the photo treatment of her cute photos!  Amber said, “This is gorgeous! Love the photos and fun composition!”  For more lovely scrapping, you should see Calm…another GSO by GlitterQueen this week!

Each layout is linked to the gallery to check credits on these masterpieces, so feel free to leave love.  And if you find a GSO in the ScrapMatters gallery, please add it to the GSO thread so we can all ooh and ahh together!  Thanks for spending a little time with us today and I hope you have a nice rest of your weekend!
