this is not a test
I did this LO for the OLW challenge. I usually don’t do challenges unless I really feel some major inspiration. Otherwise I feel like I’m forcing something that just isn’t right. But I thought about the word grow, and really did feel inspired to journal about the growth I’ve experienced after my gramma’s death last summer.
The design of the second layout was inspired by dare 91.
The one also is pretty important to me.
My family has always worked very hard
for everything we have,
and I’ve learned so much about life
(working hard and having a sense of humor)
from the examples of my father and grandparents.
And so this page is all about us.
Oh and in case you didn’t figure it out,
The title is a twist on the airline slogan.
I got some stencils a couple weeks ago and overused them a lot last night. I used cardstock and NO patterned paper (a huge deal for me) and everything I used was clipped from magazines or printed/typed out. (transparency and typewriting)
good luck w/your last week in classes. my hubs is in the same boat. love IKEA… and ur pages… incredibly inspiring… i love everything you do girl…just amazing and so personal and I <3 that! xoxo
