Birthday Girl

The birthday hat was made with the Cricut machine, using the Celebrations cartridge.

 

The lollipop is handmade.

 

 

 

Who doesn't love a lot of presents?

 

The candles were made with the Learning Curve cartridge.

 

The cupcakes were also made with the Celebrations cartridge; then they were dipped with microbeads. The microbeads look just like the sugar beads you can find on cupcakes, and I'm tempted to eat them! 

 

The Celebrations cartridge was also used to cut the balloons.

 

The Happy Birthday font was made with the Beyond Birthdays cartridge.

 

It was fun using the hinges to make a miniature picture frame, featuring the birthday girl's name.

 

 

 

Pastel colors are so soothing, aren't they? 

 

 

 

The curtains were handmade by securing scrunched fabric with a colored staple.

 

 

Happy Birthday!

 

 

 

 

Scrapbook Layout 8: Cruisin Together

This layout was made with DCWV's Travel Stack; each photo mat was edged with Colorbox Pigment Ink (Earthly Ores).  There was a request for a chubby tear bear wearing a lot of make-up, to resemble someone, so pink eyeshadow was added with chalk.

I had a lot of fun making the palm tree.

The water background was made with a sheet from DCWV's photo stack.

She is enjoying the cruise with a drink in her hand.

Cruisin

I wanted the rail to pop, so I cut long strips of chipboard, but it ended up taking a long time to make!

Together

The block is made of acrylic and adds something 3D to the layout.

Photo Mat #1

It was so lucky to find a mulberry flower that looked so similar in shape and color to the flowers in the cardstock.

Photo Mat #3

Photo Mat #4

The palm tree and flowers were assembled so that a picture can still be tucked behind them.

Some words to describe their fun times.

Scrapbook Layout 7: China Airlines

This China Airlines layout was made with DCWV's Travel Stack and Far East Stack; each photo mat was edged with Colorbox Pigment Ink (Earthly Ores).  The letters were cut with Cricut's Plantin Schoolbook cartridge and the airplane was cut with the My World cartridge.  The tear bears were hand-torn and fluffed; the pilot and stewardesses were based on actual China Airlines uniforms.  If you are interested in the pilot tear bear, it is available for purchase at my Facebook store; it can be found under the tear bears category.  alicazam* Facebook store
