My highlighter is my friend

I have had the sort of day where I have been ploghing my way through a lot of documents. They were very big docuemnts with very small text and they have now changed colour!

Let me explain!

I have to read detailed stuff with my trusty highlighter in my hand so I can highlight anything I need to change, add, action, adhere to, find out about etc. It's a good system that works well. Or it usually works well.

As I look back at the documents from today they simply appear to have changed colour from black and white to luminous yellow. It would appear there are a LOT of things to action!

 

 I have a page to share today that I made a long time ago and it is another for the Florida album

 

I really like the parade at Animal Kingdom and one of the things I love is the song and so I have used the words from the song on the page.

 

I don't think I have ever done a page with quite so much paper distressing and punching and stitching - but it was fun.

 

 

I was trying to create a sort of rustic feel and I don't think it quite came off

 

The large bird was one of my favourite floats from the parade. We only just managed to see the parade before the heavens opened and a true monsoon started.  We were at the start of the parade so the people at the end possibly didn't get to see it.

 

Today I am thankful for

• a successful day
• the last of the late nights this week
• warm gloves ... it's been awfully cold.

 

 

No one imagines that a symphony is supposed to improve as it goes along, or that the whole object of playing is to reach the finale. The point of music is discovered in every moment of playing and listening to it. It is the same, I feel, with the greater part of our lives, and if we are unduly absorbed in improving them we may forget altogether to live them.

Oh, what a great layout! I so like the way you changed the stitching around the tan background cardstock. :-) I feel quite inspired by this layout. I need to try more stitching on mine once in a while.

Fab page Karen - love the variation in stitching you've used and what perfect papers. Great LOLcat too!
