Lots of changes in my life documented.....

I haven't blogged in a while because we've been trying to get our youngest off to college  - leaving me with quite a big hole in my life now. I feel very adrift. There's been quite a few major changes going on in my life at this moment and I'm feeling kind of shaky about them, so I documented my feelings in my scrapbook page!

I used bits and pieces from my August Studio Calico kit. I had several sequins left, so I decided to layer them all under a diecut feather that I cut with my Silhouette machine. The cut is an Amy Tangerine diecut and it's my favorite feather cut I've found. I love the way this looks! And I used up all of my sequins from this kit!! YAY! I do have several thousand leftover sequins from other kits and purchases, so I felt safe in stash busting these!! ;)

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!! :)

  2. Awesome layout design-wise and also awesome that you documented this stage in your life! I think it's vital that we also scrap the not-so-good times..
    Sending you a hug :) Now think of all the possibilities that are now open for you! Everything will turn out fine!

  3. Empathising with you for so very similar reasons (although I'm not nearly 50 I'm off to a friend's 50th on Sat and he's not that much older than me!) Love that die cut with the sequins. Hoping that things settle for both of us! :hugs:
