Sneak peek & top 2000 flashback

Sit down, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy this ‘top 2000 flashback’

But first of all, this:

And second… a top 2000 flashback!

There were a lot (and when I say a lot, I mean A LOT) participants playing in my top 2000 blog party last week and MAN, did we all have fun!!!

The songs that inspired me to make an art journal page are all songs that have special meaning to me… the song itself may not even be a favorite of mine but each song evokes a certain memory. In this post, I publish each page again with the background story. Enjoy!
