EAJC # 11, your initial...

Emily's Art Journal Challenge for this week is "your initial".

Even though my first name is Rebecca... so you would think my initial is R, it is acutally B... most people call me Bek, Bec, Beck, rarely Rebecca.
Journalling on the back is:
People only call me Rebecca in formal correspondence, my work colleages and thats about it. Everyone else knows me as Bek. I always refer to myself as Bek and if I use initials on a scrap layout its usually a B because B is for Bek and thats Me.

Supplies used:
* acrylic paint (only on the back)
* uni pin fine line black pen
* FancyPants Designs paper
* Making Memories kraft paper stickers
* Heidi Swapp bling frames icee
* calendar - su doko The Times 2007 daily desk calendar

I just thought of something... its funny that I use Rebecca in my banner. I like the name Rebecca, I guess I would like it if people called me Rebecca more often... after all it is my name. My mother once sent a girl home for calling me Becky {parents are strange about names}! I will never forget that, its a funny joke we share in our family "her name is Rebecca" !!!

No one calls me Becky, or rather no one usually gets away with it asides from my Dad.

So there you go.
I guess I am both a B or an R depending on my mood. I always introduce myself as Rebecca. Must be the Gemini in me *grin*

Love out...

I was introduced to you as Bek.
By some drunken woman with a camera.
On that day I made a friend, that warms my heart and touches my soul with her compassion honesty and reliability.

I love both Rebecca and Bek.
Always xxx
