My younger daughter has had this habit of taking "selfie" photos for as long as I can remember. At first, I thought it was kind of silly, but I've come to really appreciate this quirk of hers because it has given me a huge number of photographs of her that are scrap worthy, and I have a documented record of her growing up, right in front of my eyes. She always manages to capture her own personal quirky personality as well.

This is for the Scraplift Your Favorites Challenge.

I did a shameless lift of Doll Scrap's Cell Shots project - in fact, I loved it so much I did as little as I possibly could to alter it and tried to keep it as true to her project as possible given my personal stash.

You can see Jeannie's gorgeous project right here.

I'm going to turn it into the Girls Girls Girls challenge too.

Doily and Butterfly dies are by Stampin' Up.
