Petite Prints Challenge: Happy Birthday Layout by Corri

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing a project with the new Petite Prints - Gingham - Linen.  This adorable photo of my oldest daughter has been sitting on my desk for months now.  I've been waiting for the perfect paper to coordinate with her cute dress.    The monochromatic colors in this collection allowed me to design a layout that matched perfectly.

I wanted to make the balloons a focal point on this because all she wanted for her third birthday was balloons...lots of balloons.  She carried that one around all day.   I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut these and added Doodle Twine to match each. 

I matted the photo with white card stock and then used my flag punch to create three flags for the upper left corner.   I placed three small doilies behind the lower right corner.  

Finally, to create my title, I used my Cameo again to cut letters from black cardstock.  I added clusters of Sprinkles  to accent the title.  

Check out the complete Petite Prints Collection.  You can create a color combination to work with any photo!

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing some fun projects with the new Silhouette Cut files.  Anyone who knows me, knows I love to use my Cameo.  I just love making shape cards...they always get a huge reaction and are really easy to make.

2. Click on the Offset Icon
3. Adjust size and click apply.
4. Click Mirror Above and move the two shapes so they are touching.
5. Right click on your mouse and select Weld.

Now you're ready to assemble your card.

For my globe card, I added a sentiment strip and a few embellishments.  These cute shape cards have such a big impact.  I hope you will give them a try.
