Sometimes you need to journal it out! This story is pretty upsetting for me, even now. It is easier, but I think that being told I was pretty much lying about all the work I had done is a bitter pill to swallow at 12. I am not a sore loser at all, but sometimes you just feel hurt by something. I was reminded by Michelle Obama in her documentary, that some of the things you hold on to fuel you to achieve more.
I would still be upset about this, too! Good for you for getting a push rather than thinking you should dumb it down. Gorgeous page, and really cool that you found a copy of the book.
I love your layout! So feminine and strong... delicate at the same time. You picked the perfect kit for it. And yes, sometimes you do need to journal it out... thanks for sharing...
I'm so wowed by this, Claire!! Your page jumped out at me in the forum - I absolutely love everything about it - that was before I could read the journaling. You are truly a magnificently beautiful woman!!!
What an amazing story, Claire! I was showing Miles who you were here at The LilyPad and came across this layout. You are one of the most creative people I've ever met and I'm so glad you didn't let this experience hold you back from your creative passion. Love you, girl!
@Cherylndesigns thank you so much, that means so much coming from you. You are truly the sweetest person ever x @DivaMom96 thank you, you have gifted me so very much, more than you can ever know and now I get to see you in person, it's just a dream come true.
That would be so frustrating! I love how you documented the story with the book cover. The title really draws you in, and that beautiful silhouette over the painted elements really accents the story in a lovely way. I'm sorry for your disappointment. I would be too. I love that you didn't let it hold you back from creativity now though! Thanks for playing in the November Journaling Challenge!
