Chaotic Life

For Aimee's Inspire Me Journal Challenge #2
We were to use a quote that inspires us and explain why, use colored pencils on our LO, AND use alpha's in any form (sticker, rub-ons, etc.).
My quote is by Friedrich Nietzsche: "You need chaos in your soul to give birth to a dancing star." Journaling reads: I get so frustrated and discouraged when my house is not clean. It seems my scrap room gets the messiest after several days of cropping and not cleaning. I love this quote by German philosopher, Nietzsche. It reminds me that life is not always shiny and clean and should (inserted the word "NOT") be. I must embrace the CHAOS in my life in order to appreciate the amazing results that are produced from the madness. Besides, why do today what you can make your kids do tomorrow!"

Funny story about this LO: I actually forgot that it was being made for my 8 x 8 album and I made it on a 12 x 12 sheet. After everything was finished, I realized my mistake and had to take everything apart and try to reapply it to the 8 x 8 album page. The "o" and "i" in Chaotic were rub-ons so I had to cut them out and just glue them to the new page. The "h", "t", "c" in Chaotic are stickers as well as the "e" in Life. The "L" and "F" in Life are Cosmo Cricket punch outs and the "i" is another rub-on that I had to cut out and just glue...lol. Talk about a chaotic page! Some of the paper got ripped from taking apart but I figured it just added to the Chaotic personality of the page. I used an orange colored pencil (the only one I could find in the entire house) to distress the quote and to outline "Life". TFL!
