Received the Lovely Blog Award from Young and Crafty. Thanks so much! I received this on my Crafty Mommy Diva blog award already, but not here yet =D.

The rules for this award are as follows:

• thank and link back to the person that gave you the award. (above)
• share 7 things about yourself. (below)
• pass the award to at least 4 fellow bloggers that inspire you. (below)
• let them know about the award.

Here are 7 things about me, Maryanne:

1. I hate sleeping with socks on and sometimes I leave my feet out of the covers on purpose.
2. I love to read! Mostly all the LDS Romance books.
3. I really need/want a Silhouette. Going to try to save up for one, but I'm really wishing that I'll win one from all the many blogs giving them away. Or Silhouette would contact me to review one! =D
4. I love playing games, participating in contests and giveaways, and having/going to parties.
5. Desperately need a date with my husband - I keep thinking about (A More Real) Love Story video. I love the ending; amazing how your fairy tale changes =D. Watch below:
6. I was born in the Philippines and came to the U.S. when I was 3 - I'm still not a U.S. citizen.
7. My husband and I are getting together blog design business together to help bring in more income since it's a little difficult to find a job in the Illustration field for him. Check out this blog header he created here. We took a class from April Showers. Hopefully by the New Year we'll be up and ready to go.

I love circle layouts. Love all the details she put on this one bringing more pops of color.

Love the flowers and the diagonal layout for the 2nd one.
