Well, I know I am a day late, but since I started I had to finish and thought I would post it anyway. :o)
EDIT: OK...just re-read this and found typos. Ugh...Also forgot to photograph one portion...What I am learning right now? The answer was Not Having to Have it All. However, it should have been that I am re-learning how to spell and post photos. :o)
I'm going to take a belt to you for what you said earlier about your book. You are in big trouble! I better not hear you ever say anything negative about your stuff again or else. Yes, I'm threatening you.
What can I say about this masterpiece. I can't say enough. I love it Denise, honestly truly love it. I have to look at it again to take it all in and put in into my favs for future reference.
This is very beautiful. I think my fav part is how you took the pic of your dad in your hand - that is a really cool idea and it makes it seem somehow sentimental instead of just a photo - like you can feel more emotion that way - at least from an outsiders perspective. My second fav part is that you used Emily as your bling and that you used the bling to write her name. I love the colors/papers you chose. Beautiful.
This is such a cool mini! Everything about screams coolness and fun - and I LOVE that you love Chris Garver. It's funny - I think he's my favorite Miami Ink dude as well.
Denise, I am in awe. And it's more than just the fabulous design and beautiful pages. It's the journaling. That you've captured real life and real emotions. Emily definitely is the most amazing accessory you could have. You are both lucky to have each other. Amazing photograph of your dad. And your journaling about that...I can't find the right words so I'll just say, real and raw. This will be a treasure for you, I'm sure of that.

Thank you, Aleida. You are a very good ego builder. :o)
The Emily page tugged at my heartstrings.
I love the page about your Dad, so honest and though provoking.
