Good Days at Scrapping The Music...

The new challenge at Scrapping The Music features the song "Good Days" by Alain Clark. It's got some really awesome lyrics for Scrapping, and I chose the line "memories of the years I've left behind..."

Here's how it turned out...
This song made me think about the music I listened to in high school, so I decided to do my layout about that. My memories of my teen years are so entwined with the music I listened to, there's virtually no separating the two! I'm guessing that might be true for most people - music has a way of doing that, right? Anyhoo, it was fun to pay tribute to the old days.

The paper I used for this layout is another piece from my friend Nat Kalbach's "Emotions" line. I just love the painty, misty, handmade look of her papers, not to mention the gorgeous colors! Along with her paper, I did some doodling and stamping, and that's it! I felt like the images told the story, and I didn't really want to add anything else!

Oh my goodness, Michelle--I had all of those albums but one when I was back in high school, too! LOL

Thanks for the musical trip down memory lane--and you're absolutely right: when I hear a song from my youth, I'm immediately transported to "back in the day" because you know, as Boston sang, "It's more than a feeling. . . " :)
