May Monthly Muse - Week 2

Phew!...Finally Back Here With My Week#2 Layout...This Was Certainly An Interesting Challenge!...I Don't Really Use A Lot Of Arrows In My Layouts...Well...It's Pretty Easy To See Why...In Most Cases I Think It Would Be A Distraction From The Insights & Messages I'm Generally Trying To Create...So I Really Had To Think Hard On How I Wanted To Proceed With This One...My Layout Has A Bit Of A Dark Theme...Despair...Wafting Into The Theme Of Hope...There Is Lots Of Dark Imagery...Rain:A Dark Shadowed Hand/Touching The Window...Dreaming Of Escape...The Face/Eye Of Someone Who Clearly Is In Despair...But She Is Tucked Lovingly Inside The Ray Of Sun...That I Have Envisioned For Her...The Bright Yellow Sun With Eyes Of Hope...Coming Into Her Window To Brighten Her Day...& Wash Away All Those Clouds & Rain...Showing Up At Just The Right Time...To Break The Cycle Of Sadness/Darkness/Depression...That She Is Feeling On This Difficult Day...I Had A Hard Time Deciding What Words To Put In & Highlight & Where To Place The Arrows Too...Without Taking Away From The Message Here...I Think I Succeeded Though...The Message Is Perhaps More Clear With Those Written Words...& You Can See All The Bright Yellow Paint & The Bits Of Green & Blue Too!...Blue Sky/Green Of Nature/Yellow Of Sun/Hope & Happiness...

*For My We All Need Time Layout-I Used:

*Winds Of Change-Lynn Grieveson
*The Remix 35Mmm-Micheline Lincoln Designs (7) (AKA The Arrows)
*Chameleon Stamps-Paula Kesselring (1) (Big Yellow Paint Stamp)

 

Thank you for the inspiration!
