It Only Hurts When I Breathe


This is a layout that is near and dear to my heart. It has taken a lot of hours of searching for and making the right embellishments. I haven't inserted the photo and the journaling is hidden but it reflects on my feelings of the ending of a relationship that meant the world to me.

I would have to say that this layout is for sure one of my top three all time layouts.

I love the handstitching, bead work and the feathers. Hey Trisha notice the flowers - I have been converted! Lets not forget to mention the use of glimmer mists, and the swirls were from the grunge board but I traced the glimmer mist screens to create them.
