Finally A Layout and A Blog Party Announcement

No... your eyes are not deceiving you! I made a layout for my blog and I'm posting about it... Can you believe it?!

Yesterday I was finally feeling up to some crafting time and so I pulled out all my supplies from the Craft Junctions March Kits. I used a combo of two kits, but most of the papers came from here. If you've looked at my blog this past weekend, I'm pretty sure you'll notice these photos too. They are from this post. So lots of links to look at. Fun right?!

I wanted to keep the layout's color tones warm and yet at the same time... soft. Almost like a sunrise color scheme. The crafty bug has bit me again and it felt so good to scrapbook. While I was on bed rest, I looked at all my crafty friend's blogs and I felt so inspired by all their work. It was nice to just absorb the talents of others, so that when I picked up my scissors... I was ready to work. Oh and speaking of other scrapbookers... my sweet and sassy fun sister in law made a few layouts herself. I thought she did such a great job and I wanted to share the link to them. If you are a scrapper... go leave her some love HERE.

As always, I layered a ton of embellishments and focused on circle shapes. I know it's nothing new, but I ALWAYS love using circles on my layouts. There is something soft and pleasing to the eye about them. Simply put... I love circles and I use them on almost every layout :) 

One last thing before I go.... I thought I would share this info.

 

There will be TONS of giveaways of product I used in the book and fun sneaks of the chapters and other goodies :) I hope you stop by and join me on this REALLY BIG moment in my scrappy life. Thanks for being a friend
