Born this way

I just have to put this out there; I love Lady Gaga! Her new song inspired me to do a layout about myself (yes I know, another one) and what makes me the way that I am. 

I bought a new Cricut cartridge "Paper Lace" and I am totally in love with it. The circle flower and fleur de lis were cut out with it. Again I used liquid pearls, which I love the look of. I don't have much to say about this layout, it was pretty simple to make, but I love how it looks.

Since this LO is about me, I thought I'd share some random facts about myself:

• I'm stubborn.
• I like to take pictures of myself (kind of obvious, I know).
• Every night when I'm cooking supper, I have a dance party.
• I love baking.
• I treat my dog better than most humans.
• I like my dog more than most humans.
• I love watching movies with the subtitles on.
• The beach is my favorite place.
• I hate cleaning.
• Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day.
• I'm pretty lazy, but I'll push myself when I need to.
• I'm a horrible singer.
• I'm obsessed with the Calgary Flames.
• I'm a water waster, I stay in the shower until the hot water runs out.
• I'm training for my first half-marathon and I'm totally freaked out about it.

I hope you like what makes me, me!

Have a good weekend!

My 2 new fave layouts and more!

Hello! I've been working evening shift all week so I haven't done any scrapping. So here's some layouts and a card that I made last weekend. 

It was my friend's wedding shower last weekend and I made this card for her. It was pretty simple and easy to make. I cut out the frame with my cricut - Cindy Loo cartridge. The stamp I borrowed from a coworker and it's from Stamp it up. I used some stickles and liquid pearls around the frames and topped it off with a prima flower!

Here's my #1 fave LO at the moment! I love love love Sassafras paper! I think it's just my style! I loved cutting out the flowers from another piece of paper to add a little dimension to the LO. Using liquid pearls is one of my new fave techniques and I'm using it on a lot of layouts right now. I did lots of punching too. I love the crocheted flower from prima. I wish I knew how to crochet, because I would make tons of these for my layouts!

 Here's another view of the layout:

Here's my new fave LO #2! I love the look of cutting out the circles and filling the empty space with liquid pearls. Overall it's a pretty simple layout with minimal embellishments, but I think the cut outs add something special.

And my last layout to show you is another simple one. I love the Sassafras paper, I however don't like the LO and I don't know why. I think I need different embellishments. Oh well maybe I'll come back to it someday and fix it.

Well its almost time to get ready for work :( Boooooo!

Have a great weekend!
