Hellloooo helllooooo I will come back explain a bit more, I couldn't scrap last night and we need to go out soon now, but I will be back later. Some of you last week went further than the physical thing and went deeper, which was what I had planned for this week, and at least a couple of you even went further onto how dislikes made accomplishments.... so, this week, lets talk about something we LOVE about ourselves spiritually, from our personality, an achievement in general or a recent achievement, something that makes you proud.... I felt so strongly the feeling of The Liilypad family, the sisterhood so many of you are vital part of, so I went for something I will come back and explain further later. I\m extremely happy right now, you guys gave me the best night sleep, and I feel so proud of everything we accomplish here as scrapper, because it goes so so much further and deeper than just pages..... anyway, here is my page, A Leap of Faith I'll be back later tonight. and with all my heart, THANK YOU!!!!!!! can't wait for your pages now!!!!
Love you, Cynthia!! It warms my heart that you got such a lift from us and that you got a good night's sleep. Wonderful page!!!
Oh my goodness, what a vibrant layout. I could pick apart each small piece of it as the symbolism is so on point here! Your spirit literally leaps off the page Cynthia. Thank you for sharing with us all and motivating and encouraging and just being that one to help us accomplish these layouts!
Here's mine. Contradicts all feminist culture, I know. But when two people are happier with each other than in all the 55 years we've known each other, I'll risk the Culture Police coming after me. https://the-lilypad.com/forum/galleries/10-19_wk3_heart-happiest.408601/
Oh boy, this was a great challenge for me. I have the most whacky sense of humor - it's a "family thing". My dad was the biggest instigator - he used to get us kids in all kinds of trouble, especially in inappropriate situations. You wouldn't believe the stories I could tell. On the other side of the coin, our crazy humor has gotten us through some extremely tough times and our motto is "laugh to keep from crying". Here's the page I came up with. My GS brought me this headband with the sugar skulls the other night and we all got hysterical because I put it right on and was just working away on my computer, wearing them. Humor is how I get through life.
I think I struggled most with this one - not because I couldn't think of something I really loved, but because there were so many choices. Ego, quitting smoking, sense of faith and hope ... it wasn't until I was goofing around with words and fonts that this started taking shape. Once I realized it was a perfect way to dig into Rebecca's Beetris kit it came together quickly. By the time it was finished I was head over heels with it.
here's my take about my anxiety and my timidy. they rot my life but day after day I try to repulse them
I love being a mother, and nothing makes me happier than watching my children succeed and given awards.
Sorry I'm a bit late. Life has been crazy. I aspire to be kind. I believe that most people would say that I am.

I'm catching up with agree..... (and thanks for being around when I couldn't!!!!) Angela did message me about this at the time, we had a chat and she then sorted (and in a wonderful manner, I have to add!!!) the page. I think sometimes we struggle because we have this concept that art journal needs to be this internal process or abstract representation of something...... I see it in a different light , like sometimes we can just go for a color play, a fun side of things or just get inspired by any part of the concept or image we have from the hostess here in the Muse...which I know Dalis also sees/knows because you just have to look at her gallery to see the balance of so much so different, so amazing and fitting for different situations....anyway, apologies for the delay, once again, I am expecting that this month I will be wayyyyyyy better!!!!!!!!!!!! @Angela Toucan I'm almost all caught with you guys, I will sort the coupon latest Monday...if there is anyone who want to participate, that couldn't finish the 4 weeks and wants to qualify for the coupon and want more time, let me know!!!!!
