FRIENDS GOOD TIMES ~ SCRAP THE GIRLS

Hello !
So I did this layout a little while ago for the challenge at Scrap the Girls and it has been sitting in my craft room ever since.
I sometimes loose confidence in my scrapping and think it isn't good enough and wastn't going to post . But then I think it is a special time with friends documented and that is the main thing. At the end of the day we all differ in what appeals to us style wise.
Anyway here is my take on the sketch 




I have used the pink and white polka dot tissue paper under my photos as my present was wrapped in it. The feather washi tape was from Bec


Thank You for calling by , I really appreciate any comments to brighten my day.
Love, Peace and Kindness

Oh Mary definitely the moments in the photos are what it is all about.. I love looking at those amazing pages with layers and mixed media and heaps of product on their pages, and thats ok, but the special layouts are the ones about the photo and the memories and emotions they convey.. and yes we are all different, in our styles and the way we use embellies, I sometimes think Oh I wish I could do that, but at the end of the day we must be true to ourselves.. this is a lovely layout, and yes the photos are very special and I think you have created a wonderful page.. thanks for sharing..

Love this page Mary, the colours really pop. I do understand what you are saying when it come to a page not quite hitting your thoughts.I have had times where i have been the same and it sits and then I say, "just post it, they cant all be the same". There are ones that I think "now that is perfect, exactly where I wanted to go", I post those fast..... You shouldn't have worried about this page because I think it is fantastic. I love it. XXX

Ah Mary, I understand your thoughts about wondering if a layout is good enough. Why do we have those seasons of self doubt, I wonder? Others can say wonderful things and truly mean them, yet those old thoughts can make us fell unworthy. I was chatting to the leader of one of my DT only yesterday and we were discussing this very topic. She said she suffers from the same affliction. Your colorful page and beautiful photos speak to me of a joy filled day with special friends. That's what scrapping is all about IMHO. Be gentle with yourself. xo
