This is absolutely amazing. You are a beautiful, strong woman, and it is apparent. Love the red, my fav, color, but also because the symbolism in the color. Congratulations for finding yourself again!
Thank you for sharing such an intimate and otherwise hidden story in your layout.
I like that you chose red to accent with.
Red signifies strength, vitality and courage when in balance and it is certainly balanced out in this LO!! Congratulations and Thanks again :) x
Right ON! ^5 Well done on the 'ME' make-over and congratulations on that! You definately got that Free thing down and I'm so very happy for your ability to move forward! I love the red on your LO that definately makes a bold statement, that is what you did for you then and achieved in your LO! Photos are ABFAB! and Graphic45 is always a favorite of mine and I love seeing what everyone does with it. Super!
Very beautiful and touching layout! I've been through the same and I always felt I was broken until I left and then realized I was only broken when I was with him!! So glad you got out of it!! God Bless!!
Love this!!!! What an accomplishment! I truly admire your strength and am so happy you found the strength to remove yourself from a bad situation. Your LO represents your victory beautifully!!!
Gorgeous! Love the meaning behind this! Congratulations on getting out of that relationship! This is a beautiful page and you are beautiful in your photos as well!
So proud of you Marta for not letting go of your true self. How very strong and courageous you are all though at times I am sure you didn't feel that way. You are doing an amazing job and I love the way you have commemorated this in your lo, with all the symbolic pieces. hugs to you my friend :)
you are an amazingly strong woman! I am so proud of you for breaking free! I see the effects of an abusive relationship a best friend is in and it breaks my heart to see her go through that...The fact that you had the courage to get out speaks volumes about your strength of character! I am truly in awe of you! Thanks for sharing this inspirational LO! I hope one day my friend will be able to celebrate the way you are.
WOW.. Girl you are so beautiful.. I was touched by your description and sure can relate in many ways. Glad you broke free and Glad you are who you are a wonderful young lady... Love your design absolutely beautiful a fave for sure for me!!!!
Very powerful topic. I like the circles just peaking out, it is very much like the top you are wearing in the photos. And red is a great color for this subject because it is so bold and raw.
I am so very sad that you had to go through all of that pain and suffering to get where you are today, my sweet friend. In the end, YOU obviously won!!!!! What a wonderful layout celebrating the new you with your freedom and strength! I am so happy for your now! TFS this with us! Your layout is absolutely beautiful! You did a great job with the distressing.
This lo... was a real challenge, in that I was trying to incorporate only nuetral color pallete with one accent color. But I took a step back, and tried tried tried again. In the end this was the result. I had tears in my eyes as I put this together... I have gone through alot of trials... One of the hardest being an abbusive relationship. As I was thinking back trying to get ideas for this lo, I thought of these pictures and what else the signified to me. I remembered that these pics were part of the new me. A free and libirated me. No more suffering, not more pain. I felt free! Changed everything about me... The way I wore my hair, the way I dressed the way I spoke. Even the way I carried myself. He thought he had broken me! And for a very long time he thought he had won! But he was wrong! Lots of distressing for this... And I am new to distressing. Not sure exactly how well this came out. But in the end I like it. Thought the steam punk line really worked with this lo, the woman with hidding behind the fan, the crutched leg the wings with the light. And best of all teh lightbulb with the woman lifting her arm in some what of a vitory!!! This is in all my all time favorite. I found myself again! And I am loving it! There will be journaling. Might just turn it into a double lo, For the BOM. I am also adding this into the November Neutrals challenge, and the November rounds challenge.
