Monday, Monday (ba da ba ba da ba)!!!

Don't you just love some Mamas and the Papas--I may be young but I had parents (mostly my father) who listened to oldies in the car my ENTIRE childhood--so  I am well versed! LOL.
Alright on to the birthday book handover!

So here he is with his custom birthday book--one year to the day from the last birthday party! No one said I was quick--just creative.  We all met for dinner at the best Mexican place in Dallas and then off to Family Karaoke!  All of us had a privet room so we could sing as bad as we wanted and not embarrass ourselves or cause any pain to other ears.  I have found my inner love for a microphone and making smart comments--have I missed my called????

Here is the opening page--I still think the cupcake is AWESOME!!! Here is a link to how I did it!

Here is the layout complete with pictures that I made using the new CTMH Magic book

The next page turned out very bright and perfect for a birthday party--I used some basic grey patterned paper and CTMH solid card stock!

I used some of the CTMH 4x6 flip flaps to add 8 pictures to a layout what would only have four otherwise!  These flip flaps were a wow at the party--people thought they were super cool--and for only $3.95 a small investment for a BIG impact!

I used this pre-made embellishment that I got at Hobby Lobby on sale for $1.50 to add some bling to the page.

I added a few silver brads to the right page as well.--it is amazing how a few simple brads add pop to a page--I used my BIG BITE to punch the holes.  I buy these brads in bulk as I use them all the time--just google bulk brads and you will get tons of places to buy them--these are just the normal sized ones.

Over the next week I will be showing you all the pages as well as a simple birthday card so keep checking back so you don't miss anything.
Make it a great one!
