Ever since I was about 40 I could never remember how old I was whenever someone asked. I always had to figure it out. Until this year. Now that I am a Beatle's song, I can't forget how old I am. I realized that for most people, turning 60 or 65 was a major milestone, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that for me it was "When I'm 64" I had it in mind to do a layout related to that when last month I was inspired by Rachel0017's Book Lover's Challenge to "create a layout about yourself and the things you are good at". So.....I came up with this layout...."When I'm 64"



YOUR challenge will be to use "When I'm......" as the lead in for your title. Now you don't have to follow my lead and do your age - although you are certainly welcome to, especially if it is a milestone for you, it doesn't even have to be about you! For example does your child tell you that he/she wants to be something when they grow up? "When I'm a/an _________" with a picture of them pretending to be one now would be an idea. Other ideas that look into the future would be "When I'm a mom" or "When I'm retired." You could also choose a time or location such as "When I'm on vacation" or "When I'm at the beach"

Your only limit is your imagination!

Ah! Great layout! I went around singing that song when I turned 64, didn't make a layout, though. What a great idea, you did good!

Your layout shows current pictures of your current life. I am not sure what pictures to use if the premise is in my future?  So a future trip... where do I get those pictures? Maybe I am misunderstanding.

this is fabulous..and so is your layout!

well - you can always find destination pics online. Or a copy of your flight plans or itinerary would work. So would a pic of you right now "day dreaming". What ever you'd imagine would work

Love your layout and really love your hair too 

thanks - it is 100% natural - color, curl, everything. It took me 50 years to make peace with my hair, LOL

Love your example

Oh! I have an idea! Thanks so much for the inspiration!

Oh wow, this is a great idea! Will be fun to look back on in a few years.

THIS is an excellent idea! I really like your example!

Love your layout and the challenge! Really the only thing I “look forward to” with anticipation is being a grandmother. Lol
None of my kids even have prospective significant others to make that happen! Lol

Question...I had a thought pop into my head this morning. Does it have to be something in the future? If so, that's okay, just want to make sure I'm clear. Thanks

Absolutely not! It can be anything you want it to be! Like right now I could do “when I’m quarantined!” So no limits!

Your layout is LOVELY!  Now, I can’t think of anything just yet.  I really admire all of the hostesses creativity this last weekend!  Super job! (I agree, I love your hair too!) Now where did I put my thinking cap…
