Going round in circles

Broke out the ole circle scissors.
I have a love/hate relationship with that tool mostly
because I'm highly uncoordinated.
Using the packaging technique with mists I pulled the colors
from the washi tape that came in the Studio Calico November kit.
I miss my firework, splash, grass punch.
It just disappeared one day and I KNOW I would NEVER
have given it away.
These splats are courtesy of my pal Holli who punched
a bunch in advance for me.

I think this turned out to be very fun with the circles and the mists.
Once again are those MAMBI alphas.

8 inch circle page

I haven't done a circle page in a long time and
I need to do it more because they are fun.
It actually started out as a mat on a 12x12 page but I
just wasn't feeling the love so....
When I tossed this photo on it as I was passing by it
just flew together like in 15 minutes.
Whew!
 I rounded the corners because it looked like I needed to.
It just looked right.
 Behind the photo for some dimension are
my Creative Cafe stamps.
Love those stamps.
I need to figure out how to reink them without making a mess.
A fun page, for a fun photo - worked out well.
It was a different kinda page - I didn't really obsess about
embellies or where to put them.
Its one of the fastest pages ever.
Not like I'm looking for speed but sometimes I get
completely anal about everything and
it becomes tiring.
It fits really fine in an 8x8 page protector too.
Give it awhirl.
I need to find a bigger circle to cut a 12x12.

Circles- go round and round

I love circles.
They can be fun and happy.
And they can highlight something.
 This is a mix of Shimelle and Basic Grey.
I started the page with the happy photo and then
went digging in my die cut box.
 My die cut box is full of random die cuts
from random scraps.
Sometimes they work - sometimes they don't
but if I'm lazy and they work.
Win-win
 Using the positive and negative on the entire page.
 And then I felt the bottom of the page needed
a little something-something so I used
hearts
already punched from another project
that didn't make it to the page.
I find I'm quite liking the project life cards
for titles and such.
And Lou has such a great smile going on.

I'm also having issues with splattering mist.
How can you splatter wrong.
I can do it.
It either comes out OMG STOP or not enough.
