Wow is this for me


I made this page today throughout the day, I went to the gym on my scooter and at lunchtime Greg and I went for a walk downtown to get a Red Mango frozen yogurt for lunch as it was 28 degrees and sunny today so we thought why not go out and get some sun! My poor foot is giving me grief today so it's good to rest it and do some scrapbooking. I have managed to make the salad for dinner and fold up some washing so I can help my darling hubby Greg. I had a kit I bought ages ago from Big Lots, it was something like $5 for an SEI kit. I thought it was perfect as it went with the colours of both my dress in the photo and the cake for Valentines Day. I started with white cardstock then used some of the red dot paper in the kit and cut it on my Cricut Winter Woodland cartridge to fit to a 12 x 12 page for a scalloped square. I then layered on some floral paper from the same kit. The tag, foldover tab and letters are from the kit but I used the font for WOW from my Pooh and friends Cricut cartridge with a shadow. I cut the flower stems from Walk in my Garden and then made my own layered flowers using circles, scallops and buttons. I put the yellow circle layers through Cuttlebug folders. I cut the sweet square from a sheet I have been using for years to cut out bits, same with the heart. I printed my journalling on some lemon and yellow paper and stuck it onto a journalling block from my kit. I think it turned out pretty well!
