And I think sometimes we are far to hard on ourselves, as long as we are leaving our memories, are enjoy the creative process that is what matters, not other peoples judgements.

As someone who suffers from profound depression and anxiety, it means the world to me that I'm not alone. And that we can live and prosper.<br />P.S.

Soooo very true! LOL...I had to smile when I read your and Val's page for OUAS...such a similar sentiment...and I can so relate to both. I have always said that we are our own worst critics...and if sometimes our work is not validated that we lose faith... But we each have such different styles and for such different reasons and they are special, because they are our personal styles. I truly believe that the heart that we create with, is ultimately the heart that will shine through in every page...and that's what is important! You surely create with heart and we see it! xxDenise van Deventerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06897595163306511834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7054901116784258328.post-65816956926874575422014-02-03T06:29:24.984+10:302014-02-03T06:29:24.984+10:30I like both of the quotes you used on your page. ...I like both of the quotes you used on your page.

They totally rock. Another slightly contradictory layout for me... :) They are so artsy and yet your journalling tells a different story... I wonder if perhaps we just don't see our art the way others does... I strive to be like you... yet your journalling resonated with me once again. I don't know how we stop being so hard on ourselves... I love the background on this layout and that stamp is one of my faves... I am willing to be that you have more than five years worth of stash too :D :D :D<br />This is another fabulous layout.Val-Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16987733200402725988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7054901116784258328.post-81813503550457833252014-02-01T20:53:25.771+10:302014-02-01T20:53:25.771+10:30Oh, yes, that being the best is only good enough t...Oh, yes, that being the best is only good enough thing is a bit of a bug bear that we have to live with, eh???!!!

I do think we can take it all a bit too seriously, and there is no such thing as a mistake, just a detour in the road to what we were going to create!! and I love the tim holtz stamp too!!Lizzychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03140977596517699764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7054901116784258328.post-34856727159300669582014-02-01T19:46:36.846+10:302014-02-01T19:46:36.846+10:30Wow...this is just fabulous Helen.
