Life Book 2014 - week 4


Week 4 of Life Book 2014 was a bonus lession: Be True to You with Kelly  Hoernig.
We were supposed to find a symbol that we could relate to (I chose a star), at least three things that we love (I chose an Italian text, die-cut stars, rubber stamps, handwriting and quotes). We were going to work with the colors from the first lession but I chose pink, red, orange and yellow. I love the bright and happy effect  they give when you combine them. Then we were supposed to use our word for the year again, but I got lost in finding a quote that I liked. I like the sentence "We'll be counting stars" but I ended up with the whole chorus from the song 'Counting Stars' with OneRepublic. I really like that song and I would like to count some more stars in 2014!
