Friday 26aug11 customer submitted challenge by lorac (Carol!) - Pink Party Ribbons

Jode, I am so moved by this beautiful page and your beautiful spirit. How brave you are. I teared up as I read the account of your journey through cancer. I love the cheerful spin you put on your situation with the positive word art. Thank you for sharing your story.

Jode... I am speechless... I read your journaling on my tiny 13 inch screen and while your story is scary and sad, what touched me most deeply was your spirit and truthfulness.

I LOVE your take on this challenge and you are correct that your words and positive energy clearly show where you are going. So does your cheerful smile -- I know it's not always easy when you're feeling so yucky.

I am in awe of your story and outlook on life and your experiences. Your journaling is poignant and uplifting and I am honored that you shared it with us.

Your layout is beautiful - I love your background and all the pinks and two kinds of ribbons and their significance... I really like your blending of paper and photo - how gorgeous.

As it all is.. Thank you again for sharing your story with us. Holding many warm thoughts for your upcoming surgery - please keep us informed. Sending many hugs - take care.

Wow. I'm trying to think of what to say...as I wipe away some tears. What a wonderful layout. The "look" of it is fabulous. But, of course, the journaling...the journaling is what "makes" it. You write so well. And your spirit shines through. I'm not great at words and expressing my thoughts, just know that I think it's wonderful and thank you for posting it.

 

I'll be praying for your upcoming surgery.

Oh my God, you are amazing Jody. I have no idea what to write only that your story has touched me so much. Even though I am in tears it really is an inspirational story. Your Layout is fantastic. I love all the journalling too. What a great take on the challenge. Our thoughts are with you in this struggle but I know your spirit will carry you through. Lots and lots of big fat hugs. Kay
