It's been nearly a year since my daughter moved across the states... but I pray that she keeps looking up and knowing she's in my heart... Everything is from Debra Tope's new Mysterium...the Kit

I had fun on this smaller scale of collage... it's a 5"x7"... and it's documenting a favorite memory of a special lady from my childhood... Lillian, she always said: "Chewing Gum Daily Keeps the Wrinkles Away"... Crumpled Mat & Corrugated Cardboard by Debra Tope...

OMG! I love this... it's beautiful - everything is perfect... and I really love that you tell the rest of the story with the journaling... love it all... congrats on your honey's new guitar! LOVE IT all!

OOooooo... I love everything! I love the journaling the most - ya know, besides the photos... because it tells so many facts plain as day - and so cute and vintage-y at the same time... love the composition, the colors and the events! LOL

I finally got it finished... I loved the Making Memories Desk Carousel... but the stark white-finish was crying out to me to alter it... and so, many coats of paint and a bit of mod podge collaging later... I'm finally ready to use my new desk caddy in my office! LOL Debra Tope's Crumbled...

debra - these are amazing... I can't wait to play... and frame... truly awesome...

My daughter moved across the country 3 months ago... it was supposed to be just a 3 week vacation... but she decided to stay... the holidays have been a test... scrapping has been tough but it's becoming a therapy... helping me let go... Journaling reads: Dandelions were always fun to find...

One of my old co-workers is engaged... and it was so good to see what's become of her... when she worked with us, she was so young, full of fun and always made us smile... however, she never seemed to realize she was suppose to work, too! hee hee... but now she's grown up... and proved...

This is AWESOME... I love every tidbit of it... and your message is quite clear... gorgeous photo of you... and Steinway... love your crown... and someday - it will be filled with jewels... I LOVE IT... thank you for sharing.

You are a natural... I love this... the more I look - the deeper it is... I LOVE IT!

I loved this challenge of collage... but I wasn't sure about the mood... until I reached within my depths a new crossroads I'm beginning to bare... the empty nest syndrome... I really didn't know it would be like this... after twenty years of being a devoted mom - I'm now supposed to pay...
