I had these photos of our family through the years that I wanted to scrap and Screen2Scrap's April challenge gave me the opportunity. The inspiration this month is the movie poster from Ever After -- and the layout needs some bling (the glitter paper), a fairytale title (I started thinking about "ever after" and the song popped into my head, which lead to my journaling tweak), and journaling about my "Cinderella Story". My journaling talks about how David and I met and how quickly we got engaged and married. And quotes a song from the year we were married -- 30 years ago this August. So many people we know (and knew back when) have divorced, remarried, or lost spouses -- hardly anyone we know has been married as long as we have. And yes, in the "ever after", it's not all sweetness and light, we've had rough spots. But we've made it through them. And our "ever after" story includes the two boys -- we wouldn't be complete without them.
Hey Andrea! I love your double page take on this months challenge at From screen 2 Scrap! Well done! A great lot of photos you used and I love your journaling tweak!
ReplyDeleteWonderful LO Andrea & thank you for playing along at FS2S again, with this fun inspiration! I love how you have incorporated your two pages full of photos & your journalling.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 30 years together. My hubby & I have been together for 35 years, & it sure is a milestone.
What a great layout! Congratulations on 30 years!
ReplyDeleteWonderful take on the challenge. Love that you used so many photos.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great 2 page layout celebrating 30 years together. Well done on both counts!
ReplyDeleteGreat story behind the photos. I agree, you have ups and downs but it's worth it in the end. I'd be lost without my 2 boys as well. Thanks for joining in.
