~Circle page by Mandy Harrell~

I love round layouts and I don't do them often enough.  I just think they have such a nice flowing feel to them.  I created this layout using papers from the Urban Lily Blink collection and bits from the Urban Cuts pages.  I just added in some of my own embellishments.  I based this layout on a sketch by Ali MacDonald.

To get the scallops I used a large scalloped decorative scissor and went around the edges.  Other decorative styles work as well.

A tip I always like to share when working with flowers or larger embellishments is to cluster up and hug them into your photos.  This way they don't look like they are floating on your page. 

Thanks for stopping by Urban Swank!!  Take Care and Come Back Soon!!
