::: Almost 4 :::

Almost 4, almost ready for her first day of preschool and almost ready to write her name. I finally found some time to scrapbook, and I actually managed to get my cricut out of the box {can you believe it}..I got my cricut for Mother's Day and am just now getting it out ::: sad ::

I created this layout using some of my latest finds at our local scrapbook store. I absolutely love the patterned paper from Three Bugs in a Rug, I used several pieces from this set, too { F U N }

::: { Supplies } :::

Paper: Three Bugs in a Rug {Color Me Pink}, Basic Black, Whisper White

Other: George Font { Cricut }, misc die cut from the scrapbook store, and some misc gems left over from dance costumes.

::: I purchased several sheets of the Color Me Pink Swirl, I used one sheet as a base and cut the others to bits. I cut out all the little flowers, all the little dots and the scrolls so I could pop them up on top for some extra dimension. I added little dots to the flowers and swirls and rhinestones on anything that would hold still, I don't think you can ever have enough bling when scrapbooking for little girls.

::: On a side note ::: Your feedback is greatly appreciated... I have never claimed scrapbooking to be a talent of mine as it does not come naturally to me as cards do. Creating cards just comes to me and its a matter of putting it all together, scrapbooking seems to take a bit more time even after the photos and supplies have been decided.

I love your scrapbook page. I too feel comfortable making cards, but haven't quite gotten into scrapbooking enough yet. Just a few pages from a Maui vacation, but I don't feel like the creativity is there. Did you just force yourself to make the page and did it come naturally??? Cheryl in Reno-Sparks, NV

I saw this page in the gallery and a comment that referred to you saying scrapbooking "wasn't your thing," so I had to check out your blog, since I thought I must have read wrong.

Hmmmm, it may not come easy to you, but you are very talented at it. This is beautiful!
