Episode 76: All About Me Layout

Today's post is for the Creative Critterz Imaginations blog.  The theme this week is to make a layout about yourself.  I had a real hard time with this project because 1) I don't scrapbook and 2) I didn't know how to scrap about myself.  So I did a little searching online and found a LO that I liked to use for mine.

The page is 12x12 and the brown squares are 3.5"x3.5", the cream squares, which I embossed w/ the Cuttlebug D'Vine Swirls embossing folder, are cut at 3.25"x3.25".

I was going to make my page have bright colors but since this page is about me I went w/ warmer tones.  I'm not a pastel, elementary, neon kind of girl.  I prefer browns, dark blues/greens/reds.  

All of the designer paper I used on the cuts are from the Vintage Damask Imagine cartridge.  The 12x12 sheet is from the Heirloom Imagine cartridge.  Even though I don't scrapbook or do anything about myself I had a lot of fun making this.  Watch the video to see what each block means, if you can't tell.  :)

Sorry the pictures aren't the best, I haven't figured out the best way to take a picture of a 12x12 sheet of paper.  :)
