Well, I started this earlier (about 11 AM, and DUH just finishing it. That's kind of how my day has gone. Remember, I have been "off" on my days so this just puts the icing on it. I didn't let Daisy sleep with me last night and she wasn't happy about that. Woke me up this morning by laying...

Thanks so much, Jenn. This makes me so happy because of the wonderful memories of our trip to Europe. :heartpumpred::heartpumpred::heartpumpred:

Just beautiful! This would make a wonderful Christmas card!

This is so pretty. Love the big white bird, with his wings outstretched. Very wintery and beautiful!

Love this! Very wintery with the train coming out of the tunnel and passing the snowmen. Love the snowman on ice skates.

I love your queen. She looks like a tough woman - very artistic!

Oh my gosh, how adorable is this, Evelyn? Makes me smile. I haven't tackled this challenge yet, but you've inspired me.

Thanks, Amanda. I'll have this one put on canvas, too. I have these pictures so many places on my computer because every time I see them, I get the warm fuzzies with that smile. I just had the layout (where he's standing on the stairs, quoting John Wayne) put on canvas.

I didn't know there was a magazine for all things ADD. That's so interesting. I'm pretty familiar with ADD and ADHD and I'm sorry you're having so increasing trouble with it. Hopefully, AJ can help you with your "journey".

I love the small pictures on the left side of your page. They really balance out your entire layout. I'm so happy that one of the quotes on the mood boards inspired you. Thanks so much for playing along, Robyn.

What a great quote and I love the way you used the inspiration on your page, Robyn.

Thanks, Tracy. I love my front porch.

I took pictures of my "Welcome" sign, the mum and the pumpkins I just got.

Thank you so much, Vicky!!!

Such love and support I've gotten here. It's beyond words. :hug2::grouphugyay::heartpumpred::heartpumpred:

I found out that I can't force things. Remember when you asked how I could just "trash" a LO? It's easy - if you've been fighting with it and your muse is taking you a totally different direction. You "trash" it and start over. We cannot force AJ - that's the absolute beauty of it.

This is SO true, Amy and Tracy. That's why I love AJ so much. One thing I've learned is to be open to change and let my muse just go where it wants to. If you fight it, you won't get the awesome experience of just letting go.

You literally just gave me chills, Tracy. I know because this happens to me so often in AJ. I start out with one "idea" and where I end up is nowhere near what I had envisioned when I started. This is the absolute beauty of AJ - IF we will just remain open to where our muse takes us. I LOVE...

Belle, this is so wonderful and I'm just thrilled that you're embracing our AJ challenges each week. I always look forward to what you will create. :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred: :heartpumpred:

This is truly magnificent, Tracy. That black background is stunning and everything just jumps off your page. I wish I could rock the black backgrounds like you did here. Thanks SO much for embracing the AJ challenges - I'm always amazed by what you create.
