This one was tough. With Covid and lockdowns, mentally I'm struggling, so I forced myself to find positive words for who I am right now.
Thank you of the challenge and the inspiration! Like many others before, I used LBW design, as they are perfect for this challenge. And I spend more time browsing my LBW collection rather than scrapping!
This was fun! Thank you for the challenge Cynthia @MrsPeel MOC9: Day 3 by CindyB posted Jan 4, 2021 at 4:01 PM
I'm so , so happy you like the challenge and, once again, I am amazed with the pages that are filled with talent, emotion, creativity and so many that have surprised me and (as you always do) inspired me. Once again : If I didn't click "like" in your post is because I will do once I have commented in the gallery, I need specific visual pointers for memory, the pages are awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -REmoved the images to make it easier for me to answer- @melscrap this is the BEST present you could give me!!!!!!!!! One of the things that keep me happy, hopeful and fighting is that I feel that I am not that useless these days, my interaction with the community here has transformed you guys into a chosen family of mine if I can inspire you or get you to scrap something you didn't think you would enjoy, this is fuel for my heart and mind !!!!!!!! And when the [ages are as they are....well, LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!! @meagan43 Meagan, PERFECT train of thought!!!!!!!!! thanks for explaining this to us, as I said above to Mel, it is important to me that we get to make something we enjoy or that serves our purpose.... Something I suggest always is that, at least from time to time, I like to make pages about me that will go into my printed books, because I want the people who will see them in the future (hopefully my daughter will give me a bunch of grandchildren!!!!!!) I want them to know who the person who made them is/was, so sometimes I do just a page to fit the moment I am going through during that book, love how you adapted, will try to get to the gallery very soon Also, thanks for the inspiration, I didn't think of using challenges to fit my books, and I have been talking a lot lately about going back to scrap my daughter's baby books (I stopped at 8 years old, wanted to go to 15) and to put together all the pages I scrapped into books for printing again....stopped putting the books together in the middle of 2012, so you now encourage me to get back to the chronological for printing!!!! @rlucasmn Robin, you have NO IDEA how happy this makes me!!!!!!!!
