I hope that you have started the year on a very positive note and that these few few days of 2014 have been good one's. So far, this year has been good and I am a happy chappy! ;-)
I am sharing my page with you for the OUAS January Challenge.
Journalling Theme: "Lesson learnt..."
You are free to interpret our theme ANY WAY you like. It is for your inspiration and this theme word DOES NOT need to be part of your title or journalling. But please make sure your layout is based on the sketch below and includes journalling (hidden journalling is fine). Acceptable journalling is MORE than just a sentence, or generic writing such as date/place etc. It needs to be present and at least 3 lines long. Remember, hidden journalling (under a photo/tag or behind your page) is perfectly fine but please DO let us know in your post where your journalling is!
Here is my take on it.
I have really been getting stuck into my stash and so I was pleased to use these gorgeous Crate Papers and accents.
This is my little journalling card behind my photo and tells you about my Happiness learn. This has certainly not always been an easy learn and sometimes I still need to remind myself of this little fact.
I used some Petloo flowers and leaves, along with some chipboard pieces for my clusters.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
I hope you have a super evening!

ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful photo of you Denise and I soooo agree with your journalling about happiness. It took me a while to learn this life lesson, but it's absolutely true. Love the woodgrain background and the stencilling. The petaloo flowers tie it all together perfectly :)
