I so love your honesty and willingness to be so open with your feelings, experiences. I have not gotten there yet, but pages like yours are more inspiring to me than you'll ever realize and for that I am grateful. So glad you are willing to share. Know that that is powerful and so meaningful to others too. Hugs.
{{HUGS}} . . . and thank you so much for reaching out to us. I know how difficult your situation is, but just know you have caring friends here. BTW you do beautiful work, and this is just another example of it. I love your title work and that beautiful flower cut. Pretty "blingy" butterfly!
(((HUGS))) beautiful page - and you are so right- the people here are overall so supportive & work hard to be uplifting (most of the time) - when my mom died in 2012 & the emotional period prior to that, I could rely on those here on SB.com to keep my spirits lifted. I looked forward to signing on and connecting with beautiful & positive people.
What a beautiful page! And it is so true....there have been so many times I have needed a friend and I will hear from someone here and it just lifts my day. sb.com does have one of the best communities to be a part of.
Chris thank you so much for sharing. I know many of us can relate in different ways especially the part about feeling you are a part of something here on sb.com. I know I will always treasure the friendships (real and virtual) I have made here because the people here understand my passion. I'm so happy to see you sharing and giving us a small glimpse of your life and you feel comfortable doing so. Beautiful layout :)
So great the you found friends through Scrapbooking. Love the openness of your gorgeous LO and the honesty in your journaling. You will always find someone on this site to share with. sending a hug. :)
Gorgeously scrapped and wonderful (thogh bittersweet) story! I too have found lots of friends on here since I joined in 2007. Shame we all live so far away, but hope you can feel the vitural hugs coming your way! :)
I love your heartfelt journaling and the openness. You are a very welcome member of this group and I am glad you feel that this is a fun and safe place for you. Fabulous layout.
I am so glad you are part of the scrapbook.com family. Your journaling is awesome and so inspiring. I am glad you are venturing out into the world again, and sharing your beautiful work.
This is truly a heartbreaking story with a happy ending. So glad you found us on scrapbook.com. I agree we are like family here. In addition to your journaling, I love your title work and the flower and butterfly. Thanks for being part of the gratitude challenge.
Such open and honest journaling! I am glad you found us here and that you feel right at home here too. This is a great place with lots of great people! And you do beautiful work as well! Hugs!
I read your journalling and felt your heartache from being alone for so long and then not knowing how to communicate anymore. I feel the same, for different reasons. Reading your words has made me want to reach out to people again. Thank you xo
I have just read your story and totally agree what you say about scrapbook .com i feel the same way infact i started a thread addicted to scrapbook,com on genereal scrapbooking as layout really pretty
It is so hard to get back into society when you have had to stay alone so long. Please continue trying. Scrapping does help get you feelings where you can see them and read them over and over until they lose memories their power. You do beautiful work and will always have a safe place here. I have never seen a discouraging word on any of the threads or forums here. So glad you found us and joined us.
what a lovely lo - full of heartfelt journaling. I too am glad that you have found friends here - people who share your love of scrapping and show kindness and respect each and every day. I too hope your circle of friends continues to grow.
I can relate in a very small way to your story, I have felt for a long time that I don't have any close friends in town that share my love of scrapping. Most days I have been here with you all scrapping away. Hugs to you for sharing this love of scrapping with us!
What a touching story....and you're right this is a great group of people. Scrappers are such nice people, I have found. I hope your circle of friends continues to grow. Love the pretty flowers and butterflies.
