Description:
Hi Everyone...

I really wished I had come to the challenge thread and looked at all of the lovely ideas & layout takes on this challenge...then maybe I wouldn't have had to make a layout that took much time to create...The ideas there are amazing!...I just couldn't come up with a subject matter that I could relate to...so I once again,I ended up taking the emotional route,when I could have made the layout less serious and more fun...It just didn't occur to me...My Bad!...So,I ended up creating a very personal layout...very very personal...Thank You! in advance everyone...

*As per the rules of this challenge : list 4 items : I have listed 4 unwelcome surprises that happened to me in June 2025 *

      I'm always blessed by your layouts expressing emotions as they are a part of all of us; yet it often seems that scrappers shy away from recording those less-than-good times which we all have. I applaud you for your honesty and transparency. Right now all I can think about is "grief scrapping" and that's okay because it is where I am right now.

      Your layouts are always such a feast for the eyes, thank you for sharing! I hope making his was therapeutic. I love your element choices, I think the upside down smiley faces are such a clever addition. Wishing you all the best with your move, I hope it will be an easy transition and a better situation for you, xo

      What a clever way to include the images of you with other images. I know this took a long time to create, but it was so worth it.
