Happy Birthday cake box!!!

Happy Wednesday Everyone!!

I love waking up to sunshine :)  I created this birthday cake box within minutes!  There are such a variety of ways that you can utilize this box, Weddings, Anniversarys, etc.  It was a lot of fun to make and very easy.  If you don't have the Tags, Bags, Boxes and more cartridge I would recommend you grab it quick!  It's about to be discontinued and it is one of the cartridges that I think are widely used.  Here is what I used to complete this project:

  

Birthday cake box: Tags, Bags, Boxes, and More cartridge-used for the cake box; Celebrations cartridge-used for the birthday hat (cut at 2 3/4 inches); DCWV The Glitter cardstock stack; DCWV The Sweet Stack; Martha Stewart punch; ribbon, Mono adhesive; and pop-dots are the materials that I used for this version of the cake box.

Have a wonderful day and remember to....roll up your sleeves and create something with the heart!

Playing Around in the snow srapbook page "Disney Pooh and Friends and Celebrations cartridges"

This was a fun 2-page layout!  I needed to do something fun since all of this snow lately has put a damper on everything.  I used the Disney Pooh & Friends cartridge for the snowflakes (cut at 2 1/2 inches) and the Celebrations cartridge for the stars (cut at a variety of lengths).  The colorful paper is by Close to My Heart (Stardust) paper collection.  I added some stamping for the Month and year and also added a gold star brad.  This page took no time at all!  I think my boys will remember this winter for a very long time.  On this day alone we received just about 10 inches-I think the D.C. metro/Southern Maryland area has received a total of near 60 inches so far!!!!  We truly cannot wait for Spring to make its appearance.  I hope you are enjoying your day and remember to.....roll up your sleeves and create something from the heart!!!
