Layouts of my Niece's Birthday Party

Here are some more layouts of the party!!!

My Niece's 1st Birthday Party layouts

I made a few pages with the new digital scrapbooking layout software program Studio Scrap.  I have yet to get Adobe Photoshop and learn how to use it, so I usually venture into the easy plug and play digital layouts and this was so easy.  I really liked getting layouts done in no time at all.  Now the task of the paper scrapbooking is yet to come!

This is the Proud Big Sister Kate next to the Birthday Girl Sara.

Here are some more quickie digital layouts I did using Studio Scrap software program.  Too much fun and easy peasy!

Anniversary Party Pic

Friday was my parents surprise 40th Anniversary party - they were surprised.  I found a really cute trial software for digital scrapbooking that you just click and add pics - that is until I can get around to having some time to do my paper scrapbooking.  It's European - Studio Scrap - I downloaded a free trial and created some really quick layouts - plug and play - awesome and you don't really have the Adobe Photoshop time consuming process for digital scrapbooking - at least that's what I think.  So here is a quick layout I made at work in less than 5 minutes!!

Jenna & Kate two cousins and best friends

So this is a 'blank' background - actually a white 12x12 page - but it looks white with the posting here on blogger.  These two goof balls always have so much goofy girly fun when they get together!

Best friends....

Birthday Invitations

This will have a few pictures in the post of invitations I made for my niece's sleepover party. I purchased these domino boxes from AC Moore. The Slumber Party is made with my cricut and then I had added clear glass beads on the letters to make it sparkle! I used glitter paper on the sides with sleepover stickers, ice cream stickers, cupcake stickers, glitter glue. Inside I found these cute little animals at Michael's that the hands that Velcro together -the invite, which is on velum paper, I rolled into a scroll format and put it in the hands of each stuffed animal. I wrapped my invite with the extra tulle I had from my Halloween costume and used random ribbon to hold it together. I spent $1.19 on each box, stickers where buy 1 get one free at AC Moore - and I used a coupon so it wasn't that expensive. The glitter paper was a bit pricey at $1 a sheet but I only needed 3 of each color and the tool is from Walmart for $1 a yard.

Here is a side view of the boxes.

Here is the little stuffed animal I found in Michael's - each girl has a separate animal.

All wrapped up in his/her blanket - another piece of random material I had left over.

This is the Birthday Girls actual invitation - she wanted one too!!

This is all 7 invitations together. Way to cute!

I will post pictures of the favor bags as well - using tulle instead of tissue paper.

Chocolate Rush Girl

Here is my niece from last summer as we went to this fab little ice cream booth on the side of the road and she wanted nothing but chocolate and this time the girl gave her heated fudge and she was so excited - I didn't even know you could heat this stuff up she said - here she is all chocolatie and loving every bite!

Finally

I finally had a few minutes to create a few layouts. I actually didn't go to spinning class for once so this is definitely a good excuse to miss class! This was a layout of my father with his 2nd Grand-daughter Sara at her Christening.

Family Love

This was a quick layout I just made of my cousin and his family on one of our family vacations.

Happy St. Patricks day

These are my two lovely nieces Kate and Sara.

Sweet and Sassy

Here is a two page layout of my niece at church. As you can see the 1st picture is lovely, then the smile seems to disappear and starts to turn ugly - take the picture already! I used Prima flowers and some awesome chipboard from the stash!

Happy Olivia

Here is my lovely God Daughter again Olivia - under the broadwalk in Seaside New Jersey last year. We walked the entire beach to go under here and you can only go so far no longer a pass through. What an adventure!

Miss Mini Olivia

Here is another quick layout using the Disney cricut letters for the title. My lovely God Daughter Olivia as Mini Mouse for Halloween.

Kate and Me

Here is another simple layout of my stash and Prima Flowers from last years line, chip board hearts and ribbon from Chick n Feed. I actually in 6 years finally scrapped a pic of myself. This is my niece Kate - or my 'mini me' I'm told and me at my other niece's Sara's christening.

The Cake Vulchers

This was a simple layout that I put together in no time - easy. I used what I consider my left overs in the stock this weekend - trying to use up the old before the new arrives!
