Celebrate a Birthday!

We're having a ball each month at my Decor Frame Class!  
We meet once a month to create a fun insert for our 


This past week we made this darling birthday design to celebrate the special birthdays in your home.  I plan to put each birthday girl or boy's photo on the little 4x4 Canary Yellow cardstock mat for the week of their special day.  After their celebration, I'll return another page insert that is designed around that particular month, for example: Halloween insert for October, Thanksgiving for November....you get the picture!  
Here's a Winter Wonderland insert we made for January.


The Close to My Heart Exclusive Cricut Cartridges worked like a dream to design and cut the project!  I used shapes from four different cartridges; Art Philosophy, Artiste, Artbooking, and Artistry.



The Embossing Folders add nice texture to the cupcake base and bow on the present.  I put a bit of 3D Foam Tape behind the bow to make it pop and also create space for a Foundry Pin Clip to slide behind.  The pin holds the photo mat in place as seen in the large photo.

By the way, that's my daughter in the photo.  She's a beauty! 

Supplies:
Cardstock - White Daisy, Crystal Blue, Canary Yellow, Thistle, Pacifica, Black
Chevron and Dot Embossing Folders
Retired Products: Foundry Pin Clip, Wishes Paper Pack and Assortment (Clearance item.  Lots of great deals found HERE)
Dotty For You - yellow patterned paper behind the bow
