Love Rules רק האהבה תנצח את כל הדמעות







These photos were taken at my best friend's yard, about 4 years ago, but the date is really not so important. All that metters is the title. It has always been the most important thing, and it has even more emphasis these days.
The past months were very stressful for me, mostly concerning my youngest (yes, that sweet little pie laying in my arms...). I do hope we've come to the end of this period, with more answers and certainties, so I can get the best treatment for him. Tomorrow will be a crucial day, so please cross your fingers for us.
And yes, this lo was made with all my thought, fears and hopes concerning my two adorable kids, the apple of my eye.
I was caught by this week's challenge over Scrapping the Music, which is "Love Shack", so I knew that I will have this title for my lo. As I finished it, I had in mind an Israeli song, named:  "Only love will win/overcome", and part of this songs says: "only love will overcome all the tears". Oh my, so much tears I've had this past months! But, as these songs say: Only love will over come, and love rules....

I used the sketch from one of my fav challenge blogs: Sketches in Thyme, a sketch by the talented Helen Croft:

I also combined it with the challenge over Frosted Designs (one of my favs too...), which was circle with decorative edges (and I wasn't the only one combining those two challenges... LOL). I used a big doily in the center, and 3 small one that I crumpled to flowers. In the center of each one I adhered crochet flowers I've made myself (and so are the green leaves under the upper flower).
I used MS doily lace border punch and a lace ribbon. Added some pearls pins on one of the flowers, and pale blue pearls on all of them. I also put some butterflies and heart shaped buttons.
The cardstock is dark blue (not black..) and it was too dark for me, so I stamped lots of swirls with ivory acrylic paint.
Did you notice that cute little heart charm, tied to the "s" letter? And the use of a Fiskars border punch on one of the photos? I saw it at an Israeli talented scraper, Ilanit's blog, and I just loved it, so I scraplifted it (you should really look at her creations. Very unique and creative!).

And the other challenges I'm entering this lo for are:
lace in stitches - #24 sisc
lace/ribbon - for fun
pearls - #86 crafty pad
peatal & pearls - #11 crafts and me
flowers (mine are handmade) - cowgirl's

butterflies - #119 fluterby wednesday
wings - #5 a pocket full of posies; #2 cyda
anything goes - #13 the paper players; #1 ces
Thanks for stopping by!


התמונות הללו צולמו לפני כארבע וחצי שנים, בחצר הבית של חברתי הטובה ביותר. התאריך בו צולמו חסר חשיבות, מה שבאמת חשוב זו הכותרת.
החודשים האחרונים היו מלאי מתח ודאגה עבורי, במיוחד סביב בני הצעיר. אני מאד מקווה שאנחנו בסיומה של התקופה הזאת, עם יותר תשובות ויותר ודאויות.
הדף הזה הוכן עם כל המטען הרגשי של התקופה האחרונה, כי אחרי ככלות הכל, באמת רק האהבה תנצח. זה התאים לי לאתגר שיש באחד מהאתרים (קישור בחלק באנגלית), וכשסיימתי להכין אותו התנגן לי בראש השיר של אתניקס - "רק האהבה תנצח את כל הדמעות". אז עם כל השמאלציות שבזה, המילים הללו כל כך משקפות את  מה שאני מרגישה, והתמונות הללו הן מהיפות שלנו ביחד, תמיד ביחד.
מחר אמור להיות יום קריטי עבורנו, אז תחזיקו לנו אצבעות ותהיו שותפים לתקווה שלי שהכל יסתדר על הצד הטוב ביותר.

בדף הזה השתמשתי במפיות תחרה (גדולה וקטנות כבסיס של הפרחים), פרפרים, תליון מטאלי בצורת לב, פרחי ועלי קרושה שהכנתי בעצמי, פרחים קנויים, פנינים, סרט תחרה ופאנצ' בורדר תחרה. הקארדסטוק הוא כחול כהה (לא שחור...) והוא היה לי כהה מידי אז החתמתי אותו עם צבע אקרילי שנהב. באחת מהתמונות השתמשתי בפאנצ' בורדר של פיסקרס, דבר שראיתי אצל אילנית, ומאד אהבתי.

תודה שנכנסתן להסתכל ועל הסבלנות לקרוא עד הסוף....

קודם כל..
ווואאאאוווווווו!
איזה דף עוצר נשימה!
מחזיקה אצבעות לקטנטן שלך יקירתי המון בריאות ורק טוב.
החלפנו הנהלה בבלוג האתגרים החדש ולוקח לנו קצת זמן להתרגל, בימים הקרובים אני אעשה קאטש אפ עם התגובות.
הדף פשוט יפייפה ושוב, המשמעות לאחר הקריאה עושה אותו למדהים!
רק טוב XXX

איזה דף מקסים. אני רואה שהמוזה מבקרת אצלך הרבה לאחרונה וזה נהדר כי יש תוצרים מקסימים.
מחזיקה לך אצבעות שהכל יהיה בסדר ובכלל אופטימיות תמיד עוזרת בכל מצב.
מקווה שנדבר בקרוב.
