Our House ~ New Challenges up at ScrapthatSong

Hi Everyone,

The New Challenges are up over at http://scrapthatsong.blogspot.com/ and the awesome DT (if I do say so myself) have come up with a fabulous range of songs. The songs to choose from are all so varied and offer a wide range for your interpretations to scrap. So join in and scrap a song that speaks to you. We look forward to seeing what you come up with
My song Is "Our House" by Crosby, Stills, Young & Nash.  I choose this song as this is what has been on my mind the last few months and so it is something scrapping helps me deal with. I finally think I am coming to terms with everything now and it looks like my Brother is going to buy the family home, so that has certainly made me happy .
So this is my layout





And the hidden journalling



So there you have it . Don't forget to pop over to http://scrapthatsong.blogspot.com/ and see the other girls gorgeous layouts, they have done a super superb job
Please let me know you called and hope you all get scrapping one of the songs over there....oh or even two or three :)

Hugs

Its funny how the seemingly insignificant things can evoke the strongest emotions


Hope your days a good one
