Layout: Honesty – Dig Deep #1

Vivian Bonder inspires me constantly with her work and her new Challenge called Dig Deep comes at a time where I seek a deeper meaning in my scrapbooking pages yet again. Her first challenge is about Honesty .

Vivian Bonder inspiriert mich immer wieder mit ihrer Arbeit und ihre neue Challenge Dig Deep kommt zur rechten Zeit. Ich strebe gerade danach meinen Scrapbook-Seiten eine tiefere Bedeutung beizufügen – irgendwie ist mir das ein wenig verloren gegangen. Ihre erste Herausforderung handelt von Ehrlichkeit.

*The Art of Spoken Word*

Journaling: Honesty – something I seek. It hurts but actually dishonesty hurts even more. When you hear critique behind your back or find out someone you call a friend is dishonest. Often times you are dishonest yourself – not telling you know the truth – it’s a facade – it hurts even more.

I try to be honest to my friends and they value it – most of the time- although it is hard to be honest. Sometimes I do what hurts me with others – just because I don’t know how to say it.

For me Honesty is the Art of Spoken Word. I try to get better at it.

Supplies: Jillibean Soup Spicy Pumpkin Paper, Ranger Color Wash, Camera Stencils, Ranger Inkssentials Pen, Staples and Copic Markers

    I was also going to mention the Billy Joel song. I enjoy reading more in-depth scrappy journaling from folks. I have a separate album for my more personal LO’s and show them to select friends.

    True, very hard to get a honest critic out of a friend because they don’t want to hurt your feelings.

    BUt it is just plain nasty for them to talk behind your back…

    Sorry it sucks!

    Reminds me of this beautiful Billy Joel song – Honesty

    “Honesty is such a lonely word
    Everyone is so untrue
    Honesty is hardly ever heard
    And mostly what I need from you”

    At least I am honest to you about my dolly haha…
    Love you!

    Mhm, eigentlich find ich Deine Seiten sonst auch nich besonders sinnentleert – aber ja, erfreu uns halt zukünftig mit noch mehr Tiefsinn. :-) Die Titel-Technik auf dem Foto find ich auch umwerfend!
