HAPPY BIRTHDAY BANNER

I made this for my niece's 9th birthday. The specifics are as follows:

Tinkerbell for the flowers and leaves

Storybook for the font

Stickles

Paper - BasicGrey Two Scoops - for the flowers
Bazzill - Safari for the leaves

The flowers were cut at 5.25 inches

The leaves were cut at 6.25

The letters at 3 inches

I used brads to put the banners together.

THE FINISHED PRODUCT

I sort mine by colors according to the color wheel. I am still collecting.

This is what it should look like when completed. You will have 5 rows across and 10 lengthwise.

Dimensions

The dimensions are:



Length:
12 inches long and 15 squares across.
Cut on the 8th square all the way across.
Then cut 7 squares deep.


Across:
6.25 inches lon and 15 sqares.
Cut on the 9th square all the way across.
Then cut 8 squares deep.

STICKLES STORAGE

I got this idea from someone on the Cricut Board who designed the storage for the cricut cartridges in a Snapware Ribbon Holder.

I used men's acrylic shoe boxes from The Container Store and applied the same concept. The squares are a bit snug so the bottles stay upright.

CAVE TUBING IN BELIZE

Here are some photos of our cave tubing adventure in Belize. This was an amazing excursion - probably our favorite of the entire trip. The cave light on my nose was EJ's idea....how cute.

IT'S COMING...

My new scrap room. I spent all morning taking everything off the shelves and putting to the side. We bought some BESTA bookshelves at IKEA yesterday and we are going to put them together tonight. I am so excited. I did not realize I had so much. I need crates and boxes and pretty things to organize everything in but, this is progress.

I also realized I have so much to scrap. I have unfinished albums and such just like everyone else but I have promised myself that I will get to it.

I will post photos as soon as it's put together.

ABUELOS

This is a page for photos with the grandparents. I used Chipboard shapes by Deluxe Designs and I cut the title using Cricut - I think I used Base Camp. Of course I used ribbons because that is another one of my obsessions.
