As I sit here at my desk this morning, I am feeling very wistful. Having had such a great time with Heidi over the weekend makes me realize just how deeply my heart longs to spend time with my girls! I miss them soooo much! Christmas just can't come soon enough!! I don't know how I am ever going to get through Thanksgiving without them! I am just so happy that they will be together! That does make my sadness seem a little brighter. The best cure for these wistful feelings, though, is scrap therapy!! I am so thankful for this hobby that lets me create and helps me to mend my broken heart at the same time!! Here is a layout I did of my girls from pictures we took over the summer.
This layout is based on a sketch by Allison Cope for the So Sketchy Blog. I used the Scenic Route Sonoma line and a little bit of hand stitching. I just love these papers. I need to do some more creating with them. The colors are gorgeous!!!
I am going to take some time to go and do my bible study. Hopefully that will bring some sonshine into this gray day!!!
Wishing you bright, sunshiny day,
Kristii
