Ghostbuster Pages

Here are some pages I have done of Ghostbuster - he was such a great horse - he will be missed! Thank you for looking and thanks for all the sweet comments and encouraging words! My kids have handled it better than I thought they would - Kaylee especially loved Ghostbuster, she takes after me with her love of horses. After I talked to my dad, Brailee could tell I was upset and asked me why I was sad. I told her that Ghostbuster had died and she said, "Will he wake up tomorrow?" I briefly tried to explain the best I could to a 2 year old and we haven't talked about it since. Then last night when David got home she went up to him and said, "Ghostbuster died and now I can't ride him anymore." Oh how I wish that weren't so!
I'm even getting brave enough to post some "old" pages - I did these at least 10 years ago! Now keep in mind, I did these back in high school, so lack of supplies and experience contributed to these pages - thank goodness for decorative scissors (which I still have, by the way), decorative borders and markers, or they would be even plainer! As much as I don't like my style on these pages, I will never re-do them (except maybe the water damaged one) as it shows how my style has changed over the years!

Those are some great layouts and thanks for sharing some of your older work. I still go through all my older books and am amazed at all the great creative opportunities we have available today.

Great pages Jena. And I mean all of them. I don't think anyone should redo their old pages. That's what the style was back then and that in itself tells a story.

These pages are wonderful, Jena. I'm so sorry for your loss. How hard it must be to lose a friend that you've known from the very beginning of his life. Hopefully making these lovely pages will be of some comfort to you and make you smile. Think of you often :)

Jena,

I am so sorry for your loss, I truly know how you feel.

Also, I love the pages-old and new. I am another one that has pages pretty similar to yours and I won't re-do them either. I think it is a part of who we are and how we've progressed.

Thank you for sharing!
