I’ve recently been expanding my scrap blog reading, and came upon Lain Ehmann’s blog called ScrapHappy. She recently posted about what “home” means, and quoted a line from Finding Nemo: “I look at you, and I’m home.” Then she challenged others to make a page using that as the inspiration point.
Since the simple idea of it got me all teary eyed, I started thumbing thru photos, and came upon one of my guys all together and smiley in the back seat of my mother’s car. So here’s the layout I made with Lain’s inspiration:
I used some of my favorite products: flowers from making memories and close to my heart, tim holtz’ grungeboard and distress stickles. The patterned paper is from DCWV’s sweet stack, I believe. I think it looks like chocolate cake, how about you?
So, what makes you think of home? Is it a person, a place, a smell? Cleaning out my mother-in-law’s house has made me a little more aware of what makes me think of home.
When I hug Jason and I snuggle into the crook of his neck, I’m home. And when the kitties are happy to see me, I’m home. And when you or mom are picking at my ears, I’m home. 🙂
