AnnaLift 3-26 Butterfly Maiden

I had intended to use these stairway photos for this week's lift (these are the Green Street steps in San Francisco on Russian Hill), then got completely carried away :) But I did:
-use multiple frames
-include some WordART or a title
-add some brushwork, and texture
-include some text or journaling
-add some splashes of color

Supplies from Anna Aspnes:
Spring Template Album 2
APP Find My Way
APP Inflorescence
APP Aspera
APP Encapsulate
APP Globe Trotter
See Word Art
Acrylic Alpha
8x10 Cosmic Overlays (these are what tie all the page colors together)
Warm Glows 8

Journaling left: We were hiking back from the lagoon volcano in Costa Rica and having this conversation about Laura & Yvonne. Hopefully they will soon be able to both legally stay in the US where they will be happier than in the suburbs of Oslo. I feel for them and the difficult life they have chosen. I told Megan I was glad she chose the path she did. Of course she thought I was talking about the hiking path we were on and was confused because, as she said, there really wasnt much of an option since the path was a loop. A comic moment, but still an important point. Life is hard enough without choosing hard paths.

Journaling right:
At our opening yoga session at the Costa Rica retreat we each blindly chose a goddess card. I got the Butterfly Maiden. I dont think anything could have been more appropriate, for this goddess is about transformation. All these transformations - Megans new job, Megan, Sam & Cher moving away, the water leak, the house repairs, the uncertainty of the future ...
I can handle it all, because ...
I am the Butterfly Maiden
your transformative trip is beautifully reflected in your design. love all the fanciful touches and the soft palette.
 
beautifully done! how wonderful to choose the butterfly maiden. the colors are like looking through stained glass-light and bright at the same time.
 
Love all the butterflies, blending and framing! Yes, a story book page!
 
Wonderful! LOVE your journalling and reassured to know that you have life under control as the Butterfly Maiden! :)
 
You ended up with a magical departure from your usual lovely layouts.. usually a lot more color.... This is so pretty, soft, dreamy....
