Challenge #3 "Home is {where}..."

What is home to you?? It is where you want?
Our homes can be a hotel room when need be, or a McMansion... but what is at the heart of it all??
What do you have to say about where your home is? What is it's meaning? What is it missing? How is it "yours"...

Yes, it isn't always brick and mortar... many times it an issue of the heart.

Whatever it means to you, scrap it, post it and WIN a prize package from
GLITZ DESIGNS-this challenges sponsor!
And be sure to check out their "home" page, to see what is new at Glitz!! I think they have a little give-away goin' on at their blog!!

And now, for our guest designer-Emilie Ahern!!
You can see Emilie monthly in magazines, recently on the COVER of Memory Makers... Emilie has accomplished a LOT in her scrapbooking career, and we are ecstatic to have her here guest designing at The Story Matters!! Thank you Emilie! Be sure to check out her blog! I know it is one of MY favorites!! Emilie is not only talented, but pretty darn funny too!!!
And a HUGE fan of Project Runway!! I'm with ya girl!!! :)
And from our designers...

Kate: (YAY!! Kate is back!!)
Candi:Theresa:
Sasha: Home is where I sang my heart out ... and nobody cares.
Ashleigh:Kim: (Journaling reads: It's is crazy around here! We have been trying to get more 'organized' and more 'structured'...but it is just not how this family rolls...there are always messes to clean up and it is very loud when everyone is around. But I have come to the conclusion that I wouldn't have it any other way. So it is much like a circus - there is silliness, fun, laughter, death-defying tricks, and a little magic along the way...)
Tina:Post by Friday, August 22nd at midnight, PST (CA time!)!! I can't WAIT to see where you "live"!! :)

I hope I did it right, we are in a special situation and living with family, but it is all explained on my blog along with the layout. www.melonscraps.blogspot.com. Thanks for offering this challenge, it has really helped me to deal with our situation, and really touched my husband's heart!

Yikes!! I just got a phone call from a friend saying that one of your examples has the same title as mine, and I just wanted to say for the record, I had not seen that, oops, and I did not copy it, lol! Sorry Penny!

Penny Smith said...

Marilyn: It is SO fine!!!
It is a good title-and SHOULD be used over and over... and ya both feel that way, so it makes all the sense in the world that ya both did your own layouts your own way, even if they did have the same title-no biggie!
