live.teach.create challenge

It's been a while since I have had any free time, so as you can guess, it has been a while since I have been able to actually participate in a challenge. So here is my entry for live.teach.create's June challenge:

Who: You!
What: Scrapbooking a Layout (any size is fine)
When: Start June 1st and due by MIDNIGHT CDT June 15th
Where: You MUST upload the layout to the Live.Teach.Create Facebook Fan Page (click on the link and become a fan)
Why: To win a great prize (pic below)
How:
You must create a layout with one photo of YOURSELF (it can include others), you MUST use a die cut of some type AND the layout needs to be about "Why I Scrapbook". I want to see the reasons why you scrapbook and how it makes you who you are! :)

June Challenge Prizes:
All 3 6x6 Pads of the most recent releases from Sassafras Lass (Nerdy Bird, Apple Jack and Cherry Delicious. Three bottles of Glimmer Mist by Tattered Angels (Harvest Orange, Sand and Forest Moss-Nature Collection)
I am so excited to enter. I am still new to scrapbooking, so I still have never worked with Glimmer Mist (but am dying for some), and that paper is so stinking cute. I want it all!


This is a picture of me wearing my scrapbooking glasses, (don't you think they make me look smarter?) I don't even wear glasses, these belong to my Ugly Betty Halloween costume, I just feel in the zone when I wear them while scrapping. Anyway, the paper is from DCWV flower spring pack. I cut out the word create using the Cricut Home Decor cartridge and used Antique Linen stickles to dazzle up the paper . I also used the Cuttlebug to cut out and emboss the butterflies and Broken China distress stickles to accent the yellow silk flowers. The tag is from the K&Company tag pad, and the button is from some Lane Bryant capri's I owned a few years back.
