The Lighter Side of Life – Week Five

This week our journaling prompt revolves around conversations.  In the car, at home, at school, we know that our families and friends say the funniest things and we rarely document them.  Well, here’s your chance!  This week’s prompt is to document a conversation that made you smile.

Here is an example by Polly Heather.  She documented a conversation in the car:

and the one is by me (Carolee) about my little guy (we have had this conversation several times!  LOL):

and I grabbed this cute one from Polly Dana that I love:

We hope you will play with us this week and can’t wait to see what you come up with!  Please see this week’s forum thread here and post in our LSOL challenge gallery so we can leave you some love.

Have a great week!

I’m a creative who pulls inspiration from all corners of life—both the joyful highs and the real-life moments that punch you in the gut. Honestly, I don’t think I can pin down a single scrapbooking style for myself, so let’s just go with eclectic. My layouts really depend on my mindset. If I’m in a deep, cerebral mood, you’ll likely see something chaotic and messy. If I’m more relaxed, it tends to come out clean, simple, and structured.

My brain is usually running on several channels at once, so it’s completely normal for me to be working on a digital layout, dabbling in a hybrid project, and getting messy with art journaling or mixed media—all at the same time.

Here are a few of my go-to tools: Digital: Adobe Photoshop CC + my MacBook; Photos: Canon Rebel or iPhone; Hybrid: Cricut Joy + sewing machine; Art Journaling: watercolors, stencils, and artsticks

And when it comes to embellishments—digital or physical—I’m always reaching for messy threads, ribbons, and Polaroids. Always the Polaroids.
