The news last week included the little blurb that the word "selfie" has been named the word of the year by Oxford Disctionary. So I decided to use that to title this page of me. I rarely do pages of myself but decided to because it is important to include ourselves in our scrapbooks.
I used this sketch from The Memory Nest and the twist was to use a selfie.
I am also entering this page in Scrap Our Stash challenge to use only paper from 6x6 paper pads. And to include 6 of something on your page. I have 6 enamel dots on my page and all the papers (except the aqua cardstock) are from Dear Lizzy's Polka Dot Party which I have had for sometime and never used. The enamel dots have been living in my drawer for awhile also.
Edited 8/13/15 to add: I am linking this page up to the current issue at Paper Issues -- It's All About the Face
Thanks for checking out my blog....I have several other projects to share with you this week. I am on vacation (staycation, actually) this week with the hubby. He just got the new Xbox One and is breaking that in so I get plenty of time this week to be creative.
