This layout has been waiting to come out for a few weeks now, but it's been a hard one to create. Thanks to Rene for encouraging me to do this for the "About Me" challenge!



I used Rene Bross' beautiful Floral Traditions kit, with the background, journaling strips and journaling paper (with the flower cloned out) and paper banner.



Also her Floral Traditions Add-On Pack, with the stamp on the journaling paper and the beads on twine (with one bead's color changed to match my shirt).



Also used the DSP Offset Frame from Lauren Bavin's Frame Brush Variety Pack in the August Club Digital.



Journaling reads:



every moment... a choice

i'm learning so much from this journey of medicine, faith and healing but one lesson stands above all...



I’ve learned that every single moment, I have a choice to make. In every moment I can choose to worry about a future that I can’t control, or I can choose to revel in the blessings of my life right now. Right now, I can love my family. Right now, I can see, hear, walk, laugh, listen to music, play a game with my daughter, pet my cat, breathe fresh air. I can support and be supported by my friends. Right now, I have a wonderful medical team working for me. Right now, I have everything I need, and in every moment I can choose to celebrate the blessings in my life. - October 2006



Thanks for looking. CCs always welcome.

Sharon I am entirely blown away here and touched by your photo, layout, and most incredible (and incredibly thought-provoking) journaling. Wow. My hat is off to you Lady - what an inspiring soul you are. And I am so glad you decided to share. CC? I honestly can't think of any. Your pose in the photo is so powerful, your eyes so expressive, and the boldness and depth of the design simply mirrors this wonderfully. Ah but that journaling tops it all... just a WONDERFUL lo overall. Bravo!!!

Well, first, the actual layout design is stellar. The framing, the placement of everything, the extraction are all first rate.

Second, your journaling . . . there just aren't words. It's heartfelt, emotional, and such a reminder to all of us. Thank you for sharing your art with us. This is gorgeous work and a brave layout.
