This is a picture of my daughter, Stephanie and my sweet little grandson on his first birthday at my house. The journaling on the picture reads: Steph, when I look at this picture, I see the love in your face and the joy in Tristans. It fills my heart and I love you even more, if it were...

This is my precious Tristan at his last birthday, 02/08/09. He had two birthdaysone in his town and one at my house the following week. This was the one with all his little friends in the neighborhood and his buddies at daycare. Steph told me he gave each person a kiss or a hug right after he...

LOVE ISNT Putting me in a box Seeing only half of who I am. The part of me of which you approve And want the world to recognize. I want to be whole. I long to feel alive To have the autumn breeze caress my face And know that I exist in my entirety. Let me go, because LOVE ISNT What...

I cant possibly tell you in all the ways my sweet Dave has enriched my life or how much I love him or even how fully he returns that love. Suffice it to say, I love him now. Ive loved him for 26 years and I will love him forever. Everything in this lo by: MDesigns, guest at Shabby Pickle...

Do you ever dream of simply SOARING creatively? I know I do. I can feel it, almost touch it, so close, but somehow just out of my grasp. I want to release my fears of inadequacy, of comparing my style with others and desiring to produce layouts like them. I want so much to let them go and...

Wishing, I was young again, wishing I could travel whenever I desired, wishing my father was still alive, wishing I lived near my daughters and grandson, wishing my thyroid would straighten out, wishing Jocelyn & Jake could have a child, wishing I had enough money to give my children...

SOMETIMES On summer days, I dream of faraway places, places with cobbled streets and cultures different from my own.of building centuries old and a heritage rich in history, paintings and sculptures made by the masters of the time. I dream of being there and engulfing myself in the wonder of...

Could these pictures be any more perfect for this kit? .My precious (no prejudice there, you say!) These pictures of Tristan were taken at Chad (my nephew) and Stephenies (his new bride) wedding. He looked soooo cute in his fancy tux. He and Stephenies little nephew served as ring bearers...

Theres kind of a funny story behind the title of this lo. It had a completely different one, originally, Youre the One, from the song, but I printed one out to check for errors and kept humming this old cowboy tune my father used to sing, Angels in Heaven Know I Love You. That may not even be...

Hollie, thank you sooooo, soooo much for RAK-ing me with this fun, wild, eclectic kit!!! Ive had so much fun with it and this is just my first layout! There is a trifle bit of obvious symbolism here. Background: Shes a very wealthy woman, alone, sometime in the late 1950s, early 1960sI...
