    so, I still need to edit to add the journaling, but I was extremely tired and wanting to make it to the newsletter, but will do later. Not sure how obvious this is, but the top [hoto is Sarita 2014 and then the B&W is the last professional photo shoot she had/payed for for her auditions head shots, a guy called Darren Bell (doesn;t come cheap but is worth it) Love the challenge!!!!!

    @bcnatty Can I do this as a possibly photo-less art journal page, describing changes in life?

    Ahh Change...Isn't It The Foundation Of Life...For Me The Change Is All About The Season/Weather...We Are Still Experiencing Rather Cold Temps Here...Still Some Snow & Cold Winds...So For My Change...In This Layout I Am Going For Spring...Wonder When It Will Get Here?...Either Way...I Love Daisies & I Love Berries...They Always Remind Me Of Spring So I Combined The Idea Of Daisies/Berries/Spring...The Color Palette Of Bright Red/Spring Green With Just A Touch Of Yellow & Blue Seemed Fresh Enough For A Spring Layout...I Used 3 Different Kinds Of Daisy Papers From Various Kits & Blended Them Together...I Really Liked The Cohesion That It Gave The Layout...Then I Used A Graphic/Artsy Paper With The Same Colors On It & Added The Birds Nest & Recolored & Added Effects To Give It A Subtle Texture & Background Effect Behind The Photo Placed On Top Of It...I Liked The Idea Of Using & Look Of 4 Photos But Spacing Them Gradually & Making Then Different Sizes With The Hand/Daisy Photo Being The Largest To Focus & Draw The Eye In & The Others Gradually Placed On Either Side...With Everything Framed Nicely In Matching Red To Give It Pop I Preceded To Add Elements...The Grass On Top In The Centre To Ground The Layout...The Extracted Daisy To Coincide With The Hand/Daisy Photo...The Green Plaid Bow Diagonally Placed To Coincide With The Red Plaid Bow In The Corresponding Pic & The Green Enamel Flower Diagonally Descending To The Extracted Strawberry Also Coinciding With The 3rd Photo...A Red Smiley Face In The Middle To Give Balance...The Clover Stem & The Stitched Shamrock To Coincide Diagonally...I Added In The 3 WA's To Sum Up My Theme & Give More Balance & Placed Them Slightly Askew For Effect & Adding The Extracted Strawberry & Sunglasses For More Diagonal Continuity & Wanted Some More Pop So I Added A Large Confetti & Some Paint To The Background & Finally To Anchor The Entire Layout I Placed That Lovely Extracted Red Car With The Easter Bunny & The Green Frog Going On A Spring Drive Together With The Butterfly In The Air & The Hearts Following Behind In Spring Harmony...Ahh Spring...Wonderful Spring...

    I SOOOOOO understand you @bcnatty. I'm in Minnesota, and today, April 8, it is STILL snowing here! The photos in my layout are from three weeks starting about this time in 2015 - when we had a beautiful, early spring. I'm hoping we turn the corner soon here! Thanks for helping me think of the change to come.

    Thank you for the challenge. I've been intending on doing this layout for ages, but wasn't getting it started.
