January 13: In a Mirror

full
 
I realized that we don't really have mirrors other than the bathroom mirrors in the house so had to really think and get creative. In the end I used the rear view mirror - with my oldest getting his learner permit to drive this year it was fitting (it's definitely closer than it should be I feel to him being old enough)

just an idea, but maybe you could copy this page description, or one of your other page descriptions , change it up slightly to fit ,and use it in one of the journaling challenges.
 
Couldn't think of creative use of mirror, so just stuck one in baby's nest and absolutely love the result. I might just do it again. :) Thanks for the challenge
 
finally I got it together- I explained in the gallery, I am not totally convince about the page, the photo is not very interesting, I haven't been well so the messy page goes with the state of our lives right now LOL but didn't want to forget, may fix it before Feb 2nd :) Credits in the gallery (ALL products on half price today!)

 
That was not as easy as I only have round mirrors and bad weather. Today it was better and I used the passenger's side mirror. The other photo is the complete view outside the car.

 
I grabbed this shot of my daughter as she was preparing to sing in church last Sunday.

Love this, might try it when I get my hair done at the hairdresser next week.....it’s the only creative thing I can think of at the moment

Thinking someone might have an idea on how to achieve this. Any thing I’ve done with a mirror has resulted in seeing my phone in the image which I’d rather not have....or is it as simple as cropping out my hand and phone before scrapping it?
