Why I love the template gallery...

I was running out of time...I needed to make a book and fast....that's where the template library saved me!  Below is the cover for my Indi book that I made for Gabrielle, below that is the original cover of the template.

One of my favororite pages from the Indi book

You're so vain...I bet you think this song is about you

In my defense, I created this 16x 20 stretched canvas as an art experiment.  It ended up being super cool.  I took this pic with my iPhone and then used an iPhone app to make it look grungy.  Usually its important to have good photo resolution but with this I was hoping for a griddy look...and it really worked out well.   

Here are my Birthday party invites. My fabulous twinnie and I made these invites together. I love the bright colors and of course...I'm a sucker for polka dots!

The hardest book for me to make

The original title of this book was "I'm Your," But life plays out so unexpectedly sometimes and so I had to change it to "When I was yours." This book is a testament to the amazing healing power of storybooking. It was hard to write. There were many tears but many smiles too. I didnt make this book to glorify the past or hold on to future that is no longer mine, but rather to
honor the amazing lessons I have learned about love and the unpredictable nature of life. The best part about this book is it really did help me. I am in a much better place now and It feels great to be able to say that I am thankful for when I got what I wanted and I am also thankful for the opportunities that arise because I didn't get what I had wanted so bad.
