*The title of this layout was inspired by a certain song I was listening to over the last many days...Music has always been an integral part of my layout creation process and I lost that after Ray passed...I now understand why that was & alas why I am once again more inspired to create...as I am finding my "musical groove" to help me create once again...It's like meeting up with an old friend who has always been there...eventhough you may not have realized...The song in question...is called "Come Undone" By Duran Duran...A very prominent 80's musical group that I grew up listening to...Basically,when you come "undone" [ IE : fall apart due to stress,grief,sadness etc...]...who do you run to or who do you go to for help [that's my loose translation on how it relates to my current life situation ]...My Husband Ray,was my "Run To" ...for everything and now that he is gone...I miss that connection terribly... and it certainly...makes everything more difficult to navigate through when you are alone...So,for me,it is important to find other ways and other people to help me get through those "Inbetween" tough moments...So..."remembering" eventhough difficult...is part of the moving "through" process of my grief ...so I can reach the other side of healing...

* My Inspirations : I Liked everything about it...and it inspired my layout design too :
* 1. The Color Story she used here : Green,Yellow,Orange...with some white,black and grey mixed in although my colors are more muted in tone...
* 2. The use of Multiple Word Strips
* 3. One Photo and One Frame
* 4. Female subject matter
* 5. Paint
* 6. Flowers
* 7. Thread
* 8. She has Sequins and I have Stars to mimic a similar effect...
* 9. The idea of scrapping a lot of elements behind the frame and photo
* 10. The brown word strip and her hair : inspired me to put in the brown paint to play off that idea...
