You Make Me Happy

I'm trying to get back into creative mode, and having a hard time coming up with anything, so I decided to case something from Stampin' Up!'s catty. I got the layout from page 118 of the Fall-Winter 2008 Catalog. I just changed out the colors according to what I had on hand. The circle and flower are chipboard pieces I colored with Craft ink. This is what it started out looking like, and I thought it was just too plain, so I decided to jazz it up some.





I decided to add Crystal Effects to the chipboard, that added a little bit more texture, but then I sprinkled Dazzling Diamonds over the Crystal Effects. I love the way it turned out. It's so pretty and sparkly.


The sentiment is a rub on left over from Sale a Bration 2 years ago!! I really need to use those things up!!

I thought this angle gave a better view of the full affect. What do you think?

Tomorrow I'm getting the kids pictures taken by a friend who does photography for a hobby, so I probably won't get back to you till the weekend. Then I hope to have some great scrapbook pages on the way!! See you later!!
