H2H - Duly Noted

Welcome to H2H's challenge this week!

Our theme this week is titled "Duly Noted". Initially, all of our team members were hesitant with this theme because this is a difficult title... 

However, after a little thought, the ideas began to flow. 

- the Documented paper pack

- music notes

- lots of journaling

- documenting something

- a notebook edged paper from a notebook

- a mini book or mini album

- a layout or page with hidden journaling

- something with a list 

These are just some of the ideas that came about... there are many more! 

Creativity is limited only by your imagination. 

I chose to do something sort of along a couple of these lines. I am formally diagnosed with OCD and for me, it manifests itself in the form of perfectionism. I have lists and organizational items all over my home. They take the form of posters, white boards, rub off plastic boards, binders, my trusty electronic devices and a few others items as well. I rely on all of them at some time during each and every day. I photographed a few of them and created a collage of those pictures that I used on the layout below. My brain does not function without my organizational systems in place. Hence - the title - The OCD Brain. Everything else around that collage is chaos. I journaled around the edge of the layout. 

Come and join us at Heart 2 Heart and show us how you interpret the theme of Duly Noted.
