"Birthday" throwback challenge

Ok, Emma's up to it again with her wonderful throwback challenges. This theme is "Birthday" and to use the cartridge "Celebrations". Well I don't have that cartridge so I did use a few cartridges. I used Teardrop, Doodlecharms, and Create - a Critter.

When she posted this challenge I knew I wanted to do my daughter's 1st Birthday.

The presents will be the mats for the photos. For her 1st Birthday - we did a very large cupcake as the main cake, and a smaller cupcake for her own personal. She had a really cute outfit from Carter's with a big purple, white and confetti colored cup cake. That gave me the idea for the accents on this page.

The candles have red stickles to highlight the flames.

I used SEI Paper line - Happy Day

The Purple is from Archivers.

The ribbon was just a pretty little accent from my stash.

The stitching is done with a white gel pen, and a black Zip marker.

Hope you enjoy it, and Happy Scrappin...

Wild Card - Throwback

Well again its time for Emma's throwback challenge. She has the greatest challenges, this week she allowed us to "vote" for what we liked. My vote was for Wild Card as I have that cartridge and not Celebrations.

My favorite "holiday" if you want to call it is Sweetest Day. Only because my daughter was born that day. It was truely the sweetest thing.

I made a small card for my dear sweet and wonderful hubby.

On the inside just simply says, "I Love you" from the wild card phrase.

I used SEI Chocolat paper. If you haven't guessed by now SEI is one of my favorite paper lines. I also hand trimmed the heart with rinestones.

Hope you enjoy, Happy Scrappin

"Animal" Throwback

Once again, Emma at http://www.creativetimeforme.com/ is hosting another Thursday throwback. This time the cartridge was to use "Zooballoo" and create an Animal theme project. I made this adorable card for a friend of mine. I don't have Zooballoo so I used the birdie from Create a Critter cartridge. On the inside of the card it says, "Have a Tweet Day".

I used:

SEI paper line "Happy Day"

Peachy Keen Princess Face Assortment Stamp

A pearl rinestone for the eye

"Baby" Throwback

It's time again for Emma's throw back Thursday Challenge.(Check out her blog over at http://www.creativetimeforme.com/).

This week the featured cartridge was New Arrival. Well, I don't have this cartridge and since it is a "baby" theme I figured I would do a page of my daughter's favorite word. Yes it is OGG OGG. As in Dog Dog - but she doesn't say the "D's" very well. She is only 20 months what do you expect. She loves to run for the dog's leash and grab it off the table and pretend to hook her up like she was going to take her out. It is truely one of the cutest things.

Given it will be photos of my daughter I will add them off camera. (Sorry).

I used:

SEI Kitty's Place paper

A Child's year Cricut Cartridge

Glue Arts adhesive

and a white gel pen.

Hope you enjoy, and Happy Scrappin'
