My childhood....Dan Miller



No this man is not a member of my family, and I have never met him personally. But he has been the news anchor on Channel 4 in Nashville my ENTIRE LIFE! I mean, you turn on the channel 4 news and you expect to see Dan & Demetria. WOW! This news hits me kind of hard this morning. Someone you have been used to seeing every night when you watch the news, and now he is gone. He has a young daughter, and I feel for her so much, and can relate - losing my own dad at 17.

Dan is a piece of my youth, and my present, and he will be greatly missed.

Prayers lifted up for his family and co-workers, and all the people of Middle Tennessee who loved him.

Rub-Ons GONE WILD

I had this sheet of patterned paper. I honestly don't even know where it came from. It was the sweetest shade of pink with these cute little retro dots on it. I have wanted to use this "dag-gone" (don't ya love my word there) piece of paper forever now, and finally this sweet picture of our Marlie & Keith was perfect for it. But WHAT on earth was I going to match to it? I found some great colors of cardstock, but they were SO BRIGHT, but nothing else matched. So here it is - RUB-ONs GONE WILD!!!!! Totally fitting for April Fool's Day.


I had this stash of DCWV Rub-ons I had bought from QVC last year, and some Love, Elsie rub-ons I got at Hobby Lobby (I think). And I decided to just do it. And so I began to layer. The white DCWV went on first, and then I sprinkled the colored Love, Elsie rub-ons around. The piece of Chipboard was sort of hanging out, and it got "rub'd on" to!
Supplies:
DCWV Blue Cardstock
CTMH Pink Cardstock
Patterned Paper - UNKNOWN
DCWV Whimsical Rub-ons
Love, Elsie Rub-ons
Chipboard is Autumn Leaves
