This page is actually mounted on a thick piece of corrugated cardboard. I then cut a hole in it, added a piece of chipboard to create a new back for the hole, and used flattened bottlecaps as accents for the hidden journaling. On a couple, I did use the Doodlebug Small alpha rub-on's but it was just too tedious so I hand-wrote the rest. They read as follows:<BR><BR>"Tears", "Hugs", "Anger", "Kisses", "Hurt", <BR><BR>"Love", "Frustration", "Understanding".<BR><BR><BR><BR>The journaling reads:<BR><BR>"Daniel...<BR><BR><BR><BR>We have traveled a rocky road for the past few years, haven't we? Since we lived so far apart from each other during our courtship, I don't think we really had a chance to be together enough to see what living with each other was going to be like. We married in August, 1998 and almost split up in the summer of 1999. I am glad that we decided to try again at that time...but even a lot of the time in the years since then has not been very pretty. I don't think we made much effort to change the things that were wrong. Even so, when we almost decided to separate again this past summer, I was devastated. I think it's part stubbornness and part love...but I want to be with you. Somehow, we have come through that dark cloud, and things seem different. The road is somehow clearer. We are actually making a conscientious effort to be better spouses to each other, and to make our marriage stronger. The day-to-day moments are calmer, and our love seems much deeper. I am very thankful that we have come to our senses. I look forward to looking ahead with you.<BR><BR>Yours,<BR><BR>Amy<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>Sorry the bottlecaps scanned so poorly. I tried about 3 times but couldn't get it to come out any better.<BR><BR>Thanks for looking!<BR><BR>Amy<BR><BR>
