The first man a girl falls in love with is her daddy!

While looking at one of Angela Ashley's outstanding photography books she made of my friend, I decided that the next page I needed to make needed to center on my daughter's love for her daddy. I couldn't resist using that saying for the title of the page. I always remember my own dad being like a superhero to me and fortunately, I have my very own superhero for a husband. It is only natural for me to try to convey that same love to my darling daughter. You can't see underneath the title, but I used some of my flower stamps from the Fresh Cuts set to stamp a border for a journaling pullout. That way Halleigh can pull out the journaling to see my thoughts about how much I love her Poppy and how I hope she will always love her daddy as much as I do!

Mirror for your purse

If you're looking for a cute project that is terrifically easy to make for your coworkers or friends for Christmas, this is the project for you! This took me about 15 minutes total to create! And look how cute and useful this compact mirror is for your purse! You can even color coordinate it with the color of your purse! The image above is the outside of the compact. The image below is what it looks like when you open it up. I got the mirrors from Michael's. Otherwise, it is Old Olive paper and Chocolate Chip ribbon and ink. There are rub-ons used on the mirror and the flowers on the outside are from the Fresh Cuts stamp set. The other set used on this project is the hostess set Live Like You Mean It.

The best part of it all is - rub-ons are on sale for 20% off when you purchase $20 or more this month! Remember - if you are a club member, you get to make one of these pretty mirrors at our November 21 club meeting!

Stipple Brush card

Well, I recently saw a post showing how to create images using stipple brushes over embossed images, so I just had to try it! I used the Fresh Cuts stamp set to create the card and went with Green Galore, Tempting Turquoise, and Pixie Pink for my colors. It created a really interesting look!
