hell_to_heaven.jpgWent through Hell and came out in HeavenThinking back over my life and my achievements, my mind kept stopping at this time in my life, as everything now is categorised as 'before' and 'after' this episode when my DS Joshua was sick..getting through that living hell was a huge achievement for me, I had to go through so many changes as a person to deal with it all and I came out a better person on the other side. 14 comments05/23/09 at 15:09BethJ: Beautiful and moving.

countitalljoy.jpgCount it all joy....I can't even descirbe how totally theraputic doing this layout was for me :)
It is all based around the "acheivement" of still having a home that is filled with joy and laughter regardless of what crap stuff is going on with a very huge health battle. I have used lots of found items to represent what I do to survive.

Now_I_am_a_woman_MBM_(Medium).jpgNow I am a Woman (by Sarah aka Byclops)The papers are SEI & I wished they photographed/scanned better as they're gorgeous. The green & grey in them are shiny and raised. For some reason the corrugated cardboard is showing up a diff colour to the pink flowers, but they actually match!

MBM_09_Chall_1.jpgGrandma StatusMBM entry for Challenge 1. The LO is stuck together at the back for scanning purposes but I have cut the LO up into 6 4x6 sections so that I can put it into an AC 12x12 divided refill that I got from Leeanne. I've used Prima pp (Flirty Little Secret - Meander) as the base added paint and bits and pieces from stash and some lace from Mandy's rak (thanks again Mandy). 12 comments05/23/09 at 14:51BethJ: What a fantastic layout Deb! I love the 4x6 idea!
