Who knew you played the xylophone!! (okay I spelled and respelled that three times, whaaatever!) Those hidden talents that lo's like this one bring to light are the reason I love them... My own gm had almost passed away before I knew that she played the violin very, very, very well! It's just one of those tidbits you treasure knowing about people when they're no longer there.
Okay...you've inspired me to once again break out my Memory Makers metal tags. I love this design as you have created SUCH wonderful source of inspiration. Love it! :)Tessa
I love all the tags and title. It's so rare that we focus on the positive things our lives. It is wonderful to see a page that celebrates them so completely. I really like what you did with the chipboard letters.
Great job!!! Love all the "tags" and that you got the pics small enough to fit! Like the heart hanging from the tag! That title is uniquely done, also...all around excellent layout! WTG
Wow! Stunning! You come up with the coolest LO's! Love the charms and how you put the journaling in the card "hanging" from the L. Thank you so much for sharing! This is awesome.
Wow!! Where you came up with this idea, I will never know, but it is awesome. Love the chipboard title and the cool charms are so nice :) Oh I love the staples, they are a very nice touch!
OH MY! You have taken this challenge to new limits with your idea for "photographic" journaling. So very sentimental and clever to use 10 photos and hide your journaling. This is soooooo precious Mandy!!!! I love everything about it and the charms are the perfect metaphor for a happy and satisfying life. Beautiful pps and title work. Definitely a favorite and inspiration. Good luck with the challenge!
Very cool!!! Love the charm bracelet and all the photos! Wonderful title!! Great photos and journaling! Can I borrow your muse!!!??? Did you stamp the chipboard? Love it!!
This layout was created for the May Challenge "DO YOURSELF JUSTICE". These photos are from various times in my life up to and including the photo taken of me with my DGD April 2007 with the Easter Bunny in Columbus Ohio. HIDDEN JOURNALING reads: By focusing on the positives of my life I came to the conclusion that I have a charmed life. I was a happy baby and loved animals from an early age. Music lessons, in spite of the instrument, contributed to my enjoyment of music, especially singing and dancing. Then I add my loving husband and two grown children to the mix and I am well on my way to feeling complete. The heady feeling of having my original artwork displayed in the prestigious Federal Reserve Bank Gallery in Boston was nothing when compared with the advent of becoming a grandmother. And to have four more grandchildren added to the first has made me positively giddy with the life-affirming joy that it has brought me. I am at my most happy when I am having fun with the grandchildren....including having my picture taken with the Easter Bunny this spring.
