I Will Survive

Good Morning! Today is a layout for Lasting Memories month of Life Affirmations this week it's Strength. For me it was the strength to move forward.  This is the layout I did for that subject, probably one of my strongest moments in my life. This layout came about too from LOAD's prompt of Impact: Music has the power to change our lives. Which song has impacted you as a person? What emotion does that song bring out in you? and I would have to say Gloria Gaynor's song I Will Survive has lots of emotion for me. So my layout:
Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive” is the ultimate anthem of girl power.
I used the sketch over at My Scraps and More Sketches

I rotated it counterclockwise 1/2 turn for my layout.
This is a picture of me shortly after my separation. The song usually makes me think back to this time in my life and what I did to survive.
The journaling spot and title.
 I fun with a CTMH stamp and some butterflies I found in my stash
I had the butterflies surround this spot to focus to draw attention on the words. I used my current counterfeit kit for the layout. Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to see what you create for the challenge.

  5. OMGosh Tina, I love this layout! Why you ask? Because we are twins once again! When I separated from a bad marriage it was this very same song that kept me going. I survived and carried on with my life! I love that you have a picture of that time in your life and could scrap it! Hugs my twin!! Brenda
