You are...

This week's challenge over at Sketches! {by tamara} is a Journaling Challenge from Karen - to "journal about an interesting characteristic or trait of someone you love"
***
Here is the layout that I created - can you tell that I just LOVE this new Topstitch paper and Togetherness stamp! I liked the layout on page 8 of the new Spring Idea Book from CTMH, so I used that for my inspiration for this page.

This tag pulls out to reveal my hidden journaling...




And here is a close-up of the journaling...on the front I made a list of some of her traits...


...and on the back I added a little more detail about some of them - especially the more unique traits...



Here is a close-up of the Suede Pinwheels and Stickease that I clustered together.

Products Used (all CTMH): Topstitch paper and Stickease, Soft Suede Pinwheels, Togetherness stamp set, Cocktail Alphabet stamp set, 3-D Foam Squares, Vineyard Berry stamp pad, Chocolate stamp pad

This is a precious layout, but the journaling you share is what makes it absolutely beautiful. This work of art is a treasure for your daughter because it speaks from your heart.

What an absolutely fabulous layout and not just because you used a terrific paper and embellishment (even though they are fab). Your journaling is what makes this layout stand out. What a precious daughter you have and your journaling about her uniqueness will be treasured. You may want to pull this out and look at it as a reminder when she's displaying some not so fun traits.

What an awesome daughter. What an awesome mom! Thanks for sharing!
