Did you ever buy these???
i have had these in my collection for years... there has been time when i have wanted to throw them away...when they really have nearly gone in the bin...but yesterday i happened upon them and they reminded me of the Tim H ones that came out a few months ago...but for half the price!!!
So i challenged myself to use them...so that is how i started this layout...with these and no other idea in my mind...that is how i put most things together. I cannot just sit down and just start something without a thing or an idea of what i want to base the whole page around...
Okay... first i added some colour to them...i did it like this...choose my pattern paper that i wanted to use, in this case some Cosmo Cricket...and then cut out some small squares or strips...
i then added a small layer of wet glue around the bottom of the plastic discs...and adhered them on...
I then cut around the outside...i did this for all of them...and ended up with this!
Now tell me..how pretty do they look!!!! soooo cute it makes me smile!
So then after far to many hours of moving stuff around and taking stuff off...i came up with this page...
Can i ask a question? does the image look really blurry to you? i am having serious problems with uploading my pictures to blogger and them coming out blurry...thanks!
And some close ups...
hmmm...guess i will have to find something to challenge me know huh...
I feel like i have lifted my favourite scrapper on this page....check her out..she is a fellow dt member for the Nook and American Crafts and also designs for Bo Bunny and Jelly Bean Soup...that is an amazing list to design for huh!!!...you can check her blog out here... Becky.. and she is having a give away at the moment as well so go and leave a comment....come back on wednesday as i have another frame for you...see you then x

I really love this layout - so many great details but so well balanced at the same time.
And how good does it feel to finally use up some old stash?! Great idea :-)
I love this LO..fantastic..really love all the tiny details that make it a superb one!!
The photo is not too blurry but a little bit yes..I'm having the same problem with blogger..if the image is small it is sharp, the moment i make it into a large size image, it becomes blurry!! no idea why!!
That is brilliant! I wish I have some of those! Gorgeous layout as always Wendy
I am having the same problem with blogger. The layout looks okay but not as sharp if I clicked on it and it will show the entire photo size
What a fabulous idea, love how those icicles turned out. And that LO is gorgeous, so striking. Off to have a looky at your friends blog thanks for the link.xx warmest wishes Anita..xx
These look great Wendy! I adore that layout, it's gorgeous!
love this new look to your blog, so bright & sassy!!
Gorgeous layout and I love your improved version of the bubbles. I've been trying to concentrate on using up scraps and that's a great way to use them.
I like your new look was it inspired by your layout :)
Oooh! I love this! :)
Wendy, those turned out so cute. You have me blushing that you were trying to lift me. You have no idea how much I love your work so I feel so special ♥ knowing that you like my work, too. I'm so excited to get to work with you at the Nook and American Crafts! This is gorgeous, and if Cosmo Cricket does have a DT call this year I sure hope you get on. You are AMAZING!!!
p.s. I've found that if I load my pictures from Flickr they come out sharper.
Great page!! Love those bubbles!!
The photo doesn't look blurry at all! I love the vibrant bubbles you made, and thanks for the tutorial. Your layout turned out truly amazing. Very inspiring. One of my newest favorites! : )

Those are adorable! I absolutely adore your layout! Fantastic work!
You know what? Even if your pics were a teeny tiny bit blurry (which I'm not sure they are), it wouldn't really matter. That's how awesome this layout is. You're totally sick.
