"Late Bloomer"


This layout was done for the Cooking Up Creations scrapbook site as part of being the "Next Crop Chef" winner.  I had to design a layout for "Inspirational Sunday" and decided the theme would be about a "game changing" or life altering event.  In my example, I used my weight loss surgery experience from three years ago. 

The flowers were fun to  make.  I used Co-ordinations cardstock and ran it through the Wizard with a Cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder, distressing it with sandpaper.  Then I cut a spiral out of the paper and wound it around, securing it to the base with a dab of hot glue.

If anyone would like to ask me questions about bariatric surgery or my experience, I would be happy to talk about it.  There is a lot to know before that kind of surgery is undertaken, but it certainly has changed my life in a fantastic way.
