Persevere

My One Little Word for 2010 is Persevere.
My "hope" for 2010 is to be able to have faith in my word and believe in it as whole heartedly as I did my word for last year which was gratitude! I have chosen an owl to represent my word.
Owls are wise and strong and that is what I think of when I hear the word persevere. Read more about my word here.I created this layout for 2 challenges. 1st- Scrap That Poetry
The poem for challenge #7 is Hope by Emily Dickenson.
Journaling reads: I hope to persevere during 2010 through all my obstacles! OLW
The next challenge that I created this for was Mission Create. I used their 5 concepts as the bones behind the layout.
1- Masking
2- Red
3- grid or ledger paper
4- strip journaling
5- stamping
I chose to use all 5 concepts in my layout!

The next layout I created is also for my OLW, as I plan to do a few to keep myself motivated this year!! I created this one using Sketchy Thursday's 12.31 sketch (which is one of my absolute favs and plan on using over and over).
Happy New Year!!!
