This one, not where I was going. But ya know how that happens! I am not allowed to put FIL online so I kept each person to symbols that represent them for me. The irony is fast cars and eagles are SO my dad but if an eagle EVER sat on his fast car he wold freak!! Because its full of personal symbols it took a few more kits, which I am thankful for the artists and variety. Couldn't have made this page without their talents, another gratitude!!!

Journaling Reads:
Dad
You taught me I am a princess, a badass, and how to drive!
Hit the gas and go baby!
Love of my life
You taught me I am cherished. Always up for adventure and allowing me to try new things. My true North
Dad Two
You taught me so much but most of all the hugs.
Grandpa
You taught me to never give up, never stop learning, never stop loving.

Kits Used: Never Forget Kit, Sailor Boy, Rev Your Engine, My Camping Story, Vintage Watercolor Cars and Shining Moments for the background paper.

This is SO awesome, Tracy!!!!! Everything that your family stands for - we have talked so many times about our memories - the first thing that comes to my "frame" is the American flag, the next thing is the CORVETTE. You have lived such an amazing and wonderful life and have these "symbols" are a perfect representation of that life. I absolutely LOVE everything about your page - you are an awesome representation of what these challenges are all about. :heartpumpred::heartpumpred::heartpumpred::heartpumpred::heartpumpred:

Awww Cheryl, youre so sweet. The flag is a huge part. My dad was the only non-military one, he was knocked unconscious too many times (car wrecks) that they wouldn't take him. So the flag is a huge symbol. And yeah, The Corvette! Best car ever made!!!! Thank you so much for loving my page and my efforts. Its been a fun growth process and learning and letting everything out yet making it art and turning things (other months) that are icky into beauty. Helps BIG time with healing. Who know. Well, you all did and showed me how much healing could happen.

Tracy, it's all about the healing among other things. This has been such a healing outlet for me and I doubt I could be where I am today without it. I'm SO thrilled that you have joined the AJ challenges and have gotten so much personal relief from them. Yes, girl, the Corvette - symbol of American pride - you can't beat that. :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred:

Thank you Marilyn. It is very much a story of how important these mean were/are in my life. They have no idea how much they each shaped me. :heartpumppink:
