Someday

That looks like quite a job! Love how the layers of 'clutter' add to the meaning. Very cool. My Dad was similar, only he kept building new sheds to house all his useful stuff.

Wow, those layers! First of all so awesome that you chose such an old LO, love that. And I love how you layered everything and how the photos match the elements. Amazing lift, thank you for choosing me

@Vrielinkie - It was quite the job! After I created it, I saved that layer file.... LOL! Can't imagine how I could use it again, but "someday...." LOLOLOL! Thanks for the inspiration!

Oh, my!!! I love your documenting and your photos and I can relate as photos of the storage area of my basement would look much the same. And I can relate to all your "someday" statements. I'm putting your layout in my scraplift folder to remind me of what needs to be done!!!

I feel this page, oh my goodness. I bet that was a lot of work to clean up. Your page is a great memory of this. When my husband's family cleaned out the house that his parents lived in for about 50 years, it was so bittersweet. You knew how loved the kids were by all the childhood things they saved.

great documenting, fabulous layering

Awesome lift Mingo I do what you did and go to the earlier pages to lift as they are so much fun to look at the older pages. I love how you lifted this one, and made like a heart shape "bed" to lay your photos on. I love the composition of your page and the shadow work with all the layering. I love that you incorporated emphemera and bits from your parents house to include in your page. I have a lot of things I moved to my home after my brother and I cleaned out Dad's house when he passed. A lot of what I took were the photos and heritage stuff but it is still alot and I really need to go through and purge. I tried to do it several times, but it is emotional to me, but I need to. I love how you documented this in both journaling and in photos. Great lift! Thank your for playing along with the September Scraplift Challenge!

I love how you have layers on your page that echo the layers of items in the photos- it's a very beautiful treatment.
