I Know You're Out There Somewhere...

Hi!

Hmmmmm.... Wonder if it will EVER warm up around here!  Woke up to snow yet again!  Ugh!  Thank goodness most of it melted today.

Here's a layout that was also submitted at Soul Scrappers for their Song and Lyric Challenge (SLC32).
The song is "I know you're out there" by the Moody Blues.

The lyrics:
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

The mist is lifting slowly
I can see the way ahead
And I've left behind the empty streets
That once inspired my life
And the strength of the emotion
Is like thunder in the air
'Cos the promise that we made each other
Haunts me to the end

I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

The secret of your beauty
And the mystery of your soul
I've been searching for in everyone I meet
And the times I've been mistaken
It's impossible to say
And the grass is growing
Underneath our feet

I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

[Interlude:]
You see I know you're out there somewhere
O yes I know you're out there somewhere
You see I know I'll find you somehow
O yes I know I'll find you somehow

the words that I remember
From my childhood still are true
That there's none so blind
As those who will not see
And to those who lack the courage
And say it's dangerous to try
Well they just don't know
That love eternal will not be denied

I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

Yes I know it's going to happen
I can feel you getting near
And soon we'll be returning
To the fountain of our youth
And if you wake up wondering
In the darkness I'll be there
My arms will close around you
And protect you with the truth

I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow, somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

And choosing the song title words "I Know You're Out There Somewhere," this is my layout:
Thought these words fit perfectly with my thoughts right now... and the photo looks so peaceful and really makes you wonder...

Supplies used:
Paper: gcd Studios
Ribbon
Marker
Flowers
Swirl Stickers
Various Mists
Gems: Home Made
Beads
Sketch: Page Maps (May 2009)

The die cut was cut from pp and tucked just under the photo.  Beads were scattered around the page title.

The flower cluster is cream and white flowers with a large swirl behind them.

Decorative ribbon goes along the edge and above the photo.  Using a marker, I dotted around the scalloped edge.  More beads were scattered to the right of the photo.

Various mists were used on the background paper and splattered.  Taking a deep breath, I blew on the ink splotches for a fun effect.

A better view of the scattered beads.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  :)
