My husband captured this moment with his Android when I wasn’t looking and I really liked the fact that he encapsulated not only the moment but a theme in my current life.
I added a scribble on the top left side of the layout “When a law degree and a dual license to practice aren’t enough”, as I felt it gives the story a bit more depth, as this is not a picture of me studying for a class, but a picture of me acquiring more knowledge and absorbing more information in a quest to swallow the world of knowledge that is out there. A quest that has no rhyme or reason to it and has no specific path. I’m taking coding classes, mathematic classes, history classes, English literature classes, Ethics classes – as well as classes for my Continuing Legal Education credits quota. I’m nuts like that. Whenever I feel especially overwhelmed with lack of time and pressure to finish things, I just add another class that I either self-study or take online.
In this layout I tried a layered look that I usually do not go for, as I am a linear type of person. [a.k.a geek]
It was fun trying a new look, but you can tell that layering isn’t my strong suit… Mainly because I lose patience along the way and start adhering things down too soon.
I also added some concealed journaling inside the itty bitty envelope under the photo to include more details and personal notes. I glued an old ribbon that looked exactly like my washi tape to pull the journaling spot from its place.

Thanks. I’m just grateful that my husband took this picture. He’s ‘secretly documenting’ me a lot 🙂
I think you did a great job at layering and collage. It gives me hope that I can do the same. I’m beginning to believe that I am a linear geek! Congrats also on your stamp launch! I follow Lisa Spangler so I heard the good news. Good luck!
Thanks so much!
