Well I didn't have time to do three layouts but I was able to create two. The first one is definitely my style. For the second one I wanted to come up with something a little different and stretch myself. I'm pleased with how they both turned out but I am excited about my second one.
Here is my first layout: "Happy Birthday Cupcake"
My inspiration was the ribbon I picked up from the dollar in at Michael's. I loved the cupcakes and cherries.
Cartridges - Celebrations, Create-A-Critter, Lyrical Letters, Zooballoo
Design Studio used to flip and weld cupcake with cherry
Cuttlebug - Divine Swirls folder
Paper – K&Company.
Other supplies - Imaginisce iTop, Liquid Pearls, brown ink, crimper
Here is my second layout: "Birthday Celebration"
Cartridges - Celebrations, George Basics and Shapes, Lyrical Letters, Mini Monograms, Simply Charmed
Cuttlebug – Argyle, Divine Swirls, “Happy Birthday”, Spots & Dots, Textile Texture, Swiss Dots
Paper – K&Company, DCWV and Core’dintations
Other supplies - brown ink, brads, emery board, Clear Star Sakura glitter pen, quilling tool
