scrapin weekend part2

So over at Frosted Designs is a fabulous challenge to use no patterned paper... can you imagine? than I found a great challenge at Crop Suey... to use paint..how cool is that...lol.. so I made this .. and its of me! Can you imagine that too?? I am not fond of being subject but I really felt like it ...




I love the colors and actually like how it came out .. even if it is me!
I got inspiration from a sketch over at sketchy Thursday.. I really like the sketches over there. I was encouraged to add Journeling from the challenge over at Punky Scraps! The journaling says:

There are moments in each of our lives that we will never ever forget.. sometimes its sad moments .. loss of a loved one .. and after all these years I still miss you Nana! But then there are those moments that take our breaths away.. you could close your eyes and you are right there again.. You could look at a picture and know every single detail of the moment.. even what you were thinking.. to the eye that does not know ... they will always miss the thousand words the picture holds... the little moments within the moments...the excitment... the fear.. the drama .. and the "how" you got to that exact moment... it holds friends in your heart .. those who stayed close .. those who left .. those who were temporary in our lives...the missed chances.. the great choices and even the wrong choices.. living in the picture are all those things that no one ever sees or knows...

Thats what I feel when I look back at pictures... especially of my life! Great challenges .. all of them.. its good to stop and look sometimes....
