Right Now @ Scrap Around the World..

I have not joined in with the scrappers at Scrap Around the World before but with such a fabulous event of one year's worth of challenges..how could I resist!

So this is my page....titled 'Celebrate Today, Right Now'...

I have used this photo of me in 1985, looking so joyous...but I know how insecure I was feeling! I felt I had the weight of the world on my shoulders....a little family whom I loved, & I really thought that I wasn't clever/confident/able to bring them up well.  So of course they are grown up & so independent...of course I need not have stressed myself out so much....if I had only realized that one foot follows another, & all is well with the world if you decide it is.

Here is the wonderful inspiration for my page -

 

I actually love this photo..even if it is of me, so thought I would use it in this context...

I have used gesso & texture paste on black CS, masks, Heido Swapp ColorShine, along with washi tappe, plasters tape, frames, Heidi Swapp embellies, Freckled Fawn enamel dots, tags, stamping, handmade tiny flowers, & a whole lot of thought at my life back then too.

And lots of layering which I love too!

There is nothing like a good time out to play with scrapping bits & bobs to make me feel great!!

Thank you gals for a fabulous inspirational challenge...

And right now, all is great with the world!!
