Love.....

This weekend was a wonderfully busy one.....and one that reminded me how small the world is.  How interconnected we all are.  It also reminded me how truly lucky I am. I felt like my heart could burst.  My daughter, my Cortney has been chosen as one of 20 kids to be photographed this upcoming Saturday by a well known Chicago fashion photographer.  His name is Michael Canavan.  He has done a lot of magazine, TV, and modeling work.  He knows the right people in the industry.  He is creating a portfolio for each of our children to give to advertisers, modeling agents, etc. 

There is a bit more to the story, but I can't share it all ....... yet.

But seriously, pinch me.

I can not wait until this weekend.  I can't wait to meet this amazing man, who has selflessly given up his time to do this for our kids.  All of this is because of these two amazing people I met a year ago, Katie Driscoll and Steve English.  They started a campaign called, Changing the Face of Beauty.  And change it, they have.

And my lil' dolly gets to be a part of this.

My Crafty Secrets card uses paper from the Vintage CD collection and the tag is from the digital Valentine kit. I added a bit of pom pom trim, a flower cut from my Silhouette, machine stitching, and seam binding. 

Found these little posies in my stash.......love them.

A little rhinestone for the center of my flower...... 

Thank you all for your support.  It means so much to me to be able to share this with you. 

I am off to teach my 5th grade kiddos!

Have a great day!

Much love,

XOXO
