<p>Last one for the night- I promise! :) LOL Been out of the country and didn't have time to post these before I left. Thanks for looking! T.<p>Because this LO is a bit abstract (although it makes perfect sense to me, LOL), I'd like to tell you a little of its meaning to me- The journaling is lyrics taken from the song “The Girl Next Door” by Saving Jane. The lyrics struck a chord with me because I was the second half of each line for most of my life. Never the prom queen, the popular gal, the “Miss America”, but instead the “band geek” who had a small group of close friends and was ultimately just the predictable “girl next door”. As time has passed I've become a lot less shy, realized that these close friends are more than could have ever asked for, and that being “Miss America” so to speak is never what I really wanted anyway, even though in high school I may have felt differently. So….this layout and all of its details have special meaning to me….growing up, discovering that being unique, funky and different are actually GOOD things, and that setting yourself apart from the masses is a virtue to be celebrated….yup, that's what this says to me! LOL <p>Journaling lyrics- “She is the prom queen, I'm in the marching band. She is the cheerleader, I'm sitting in the stands. She gets the top bunk, I'm sleeping on the floor. I get a little bit, she gets a little more. I don't know why I feeling sorry for myself. Spend all my time wishing that I were someone else. She's Miss America and I'm just The Girl Next Door”.<p>And now on to the longest list of credits I've ever posted…..<p>Credits:Brushes above eyes (recolored)- Rhonna Farrer's NSD Cheer at 2 Peas in a BucketBlack polka dot ribbon- Rhonna Farrer's May Free Pea Kit at 2 Peas in a BucketNotebook papers- Rhonna Farrer's Peachy Keen at 2 Peas in a Bucket, Tia Bennett at Designer Digitals, and Valerie's Fowler's Teacher Let the Monkeys Out at The Digi ChickCabana white paper and felt flower (recolored)- Katie Pertiet at Designer DigitalsAd Challege ad image and pointing hand/arm- Kellie Mize at Designer DigitalsDoodle house (recolored)- Tia Bennett at Designer DigitalsDoodle frame and journaling strips- New Growth by Tia Bennett from Simple Scrapbooks Digital Issue 5Vellum word overlay- Michelle Underwood's Fun Loving at Scrapbook-BytesGood times word strip and film strip (recolored)- Michelle Underwood's 2 Peas in a Pod at A Cherry on TopRandom advice artist trading card- Jen Wilson at Scrapbook-Bytes (desaturated)Cardboard- Gina Miller's Build Your Own Bulletin Board Add-On at Scrapbook-Bytes“Queen” dymo label (recolored)- Michelle Underwood's Vintage Chic at Scrapbook-BytesDoodle rub-ons- Michelle Underwood's She at A Cherry On TopDistressed “R” alpha (recolored)- Michelle Underwood's I'm Yours at Scrapbook-BytesPhotoBlast actions on self-portrait (top photo)- Color wash and vivid colorFonts- SBC Fuzz, SBC Distressed Typewriter, Susie's Hand, Swenson, Shoplifter
