My Mind's Eye: Halfway There!

Soooo - if you are a regular visitor to my blog, you probably realize that I am in love with, infatuated with, totally obsessed with My Mind's Eye paper!  Hello, I am Jenn and I am addicted to buying MME 6x6 paper pads.  I think if I had to guess, I'd say I use MME paper/cardstock on at least 75% of my projects.  Probably more.  Yet somehow, some way, I managed to totally not realize that they have their own challenge blog!  I stumbled across it last night and of course, the deadline was today - so I busted my butt today and made this little ATC mini album all for ME.  I almost always make stuff for others, to sell or give away, but this one is for me.  The challenge is:


The challenge, Halfway There, is to somehow incorporate the fact that we are halfway through 2012 already into our project.  I sat down and thought about what that meant to me and decided to do a little reflecting on my life, who I am, what I feel, and this is what I came up with: 

The paper I used is all from MME's Follow Your Heart - Be Amazing 6x6 pad.

This is me - I'm a Leo, and I'm all these things and more (at least I try to be):

Peace.  Need I say more?

I've always loved this saying, and it feels appropriate right now for me.  I added a little starfish charm and done:

This is how I feel about my recent move to California - scary, but exciting:

Create yourself.  Be unique.  I think creating yourself is an ongoing process, but being unique is an important part of it:

And this last one - I loved the "laugh" on the kite, so I just kind of went with the kite theme.  You fly, you soar.  Sounds good to me:

Hope you like it - I had fun making it!  Peace signs & kite dies are from My Favorite Things.  Peace.
