Miss Potter, My Most recent Movie

Hello Friends!

I need to talk about this movie I just watched the other day...is with Rene Zellweger and Ewan McGregor.

Is such a sweet and beautiful movie...you need to see it...is one of those movies to watch in your bedroom with a big bowl of ice cream and in your cozy and comfortable bed! The movie is about the story of Beatrix Potter, the author of the beloved and best-selling children's book, "The Tale of Peter Rabbit", and her struggle for love, happiness and success...is just wonderful. But the part I like the most is when he (Ewan) tried to teach her how to dance!! and the song is so beautiful! well you could see it I’m sure you will love it! ..I will post the video so you could enjoy it too! Take my advise, if you like pink girly movies !! this is the movie for you...plus is really life story..

This are the lyrics

Let Me Teach You How To Dance
Let me lead you to the floor
Simply place your hand in mine
And then think of nothing more
Let the music cast its spell
Give the atmosphere a chance
Simply follow where i lead
Let Me Teach You How To Dance

Inspiration is Everywhere!

You don't have to be Ali Edwards to come up with inspiration for your scrapbook pages ideas that reflect your personal style.

Whether you are creating your first Layout (LO) or creating your number 5K, Scrapbooking inspiration and ideas can be found in all sorts of places! You don't have to have a degree in design, photography or any other thing - to create awe-inspiring and incredible pages to preserve your memories. Successful scrapbooking comes from knowing what you like and what works for you, experimenting with what you don’t know, and don't be afraid to try new things. For example take a look to these flowers…they come from a web-site, but as soon as I look at them ...1000 of ideas came to my mind for new pages and endless combinations of colors!
Now there are some fundamentals that you must remember...like Journaling. Journaling on a scrapbook page is an important element in the scrapbook process. It tells the story and the details that will otherwise be forgotten. Sometimes I get stuck, though. What should I write? What do I want to write? At these times I look for journaling inspiration. It's often easier to find than I realize. I encounter many things in my daily life that can lead to a good journaling idea.
Here are a few places to find inspiration:

Advertising. Look around you. The sales pitch for an advertisement can spark an idea for journaling on a layout. For example, I noticed a clever tag line on a Whole Foods grocery bag. With a few changes in the wording I adapted it for a layout. Phrases in Magazines, TV adds, books, even at the supermarket!

Now look around, in sure you will find that inspiration you are looking for!
