*Vinyl*

Happy Monday!!!...a new week begins!...i have been super busy, shopping for a car, buying a car, getting rid of a lot of stuff in my home, cleaning and on and on!!...here is a layout I made using the *mommy's little monster kit*.....over the years i have accumulated a small collection of punk rock vinyl!!...I have listened to punk music for well over 16 years...being that I'm 30 now, i haven't seem to outgrow it...it's my number 1 music!!...I mean now I do listen to other music but for most of my young adult life i knew no other music than punk!...I went to as many shows as I could!...I have such fond memories,,,i remember there was a group of four of us that would go to shows mon-sun!!...we would pile in my brothers ex-girlfriends minivan and drive to L.A., San Diego, and even out of state!!!...what i remember the most is the awesome time we would all have, singing loud, knowing all the words, meeting the singers and the happiness we would all feel when we left!!!...the picture is a glimpse of my collection and for me, it's a wonderful memory that i will hold forever!!!

have a fun rest of your day!!! love, miss nely!!!

love layout

I've been holding on to this picture for a little over a year now...i've been trying to find the perfect time to make a layout for it and i finally did!!...my father-in-law looks so loving and innocent in this picture...i love it and i love him dearly!!!...when i found this paper in my stash i knew it would be perfect with this pic. I splattered some paint around, used alcohol ink and used some sassafrass flowers....i like the happiness feel of it...at least that's how i feel about it...have a happy day everyone!!!
