    Ein echt “krasses” Layout. Ich finde es ehrlich gesagt ziemlich beängstigend, wie Medien (die sich dieser Wirkung von Bildern natürlich bewusst sind) mit dieser Macht umgehen. Wenn ich nur an den 11. September denke *schauder*

DT Work: There Are Places *STM 64* and…BACK!

Hallo meine Lieben :-) Einige wußten es ja- ich war die letzen zwei Wochen gar nicht da….ich bin erst gestern morgen aus den USA zurückgekommen. Erst ein langer Flug an die Westküste für eine Woche und dann eine Woche Familie und Freunde an der Ostküste. Es war grandios – Ihr werdet also die nächsten Tage mit Bildern und Berichten überschüttet – LOL.

Hi my Lovelies :) Some of you knew it – I have been away the last two weeks…I came home from the States yesterday morning. It was a very long flight to the West Coast where we stayed for a week and then another week on the East Coast with family and friends. It was awesome – you’ll have to cope with a lot of pictures and stories the next days – LOL.

Und passend dazu mein Layout für die dieswöchige Challenge bei Scrapping the Music – ein Song der Beatles “In my Life”.

And what a match is my layout for this week’s challenge at Scrapping the Music – a song by the Beatles “In my Life”.

 *There are Places*

Supplies. Cardboard, Acrylic Paints, Glimmer Mist, 7Gypsies Paper, Mapstickers, Prima Pebbles, Julie Balzer Journaling Stamp, Heidi Swapp Chipboard Letters.

Und nu erstmal den Jet-Lag weiter bekämpfen!

And now off to fight the jet lag! :)
