happy birthday

Happy Monday!  I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  Mine was filled with lots of football and lots of laundry.  Pretty typical of Sundays around these parts in the fall.  LOL!  I have a new layout to share with you today.  This layout went up in the Garden today over at Two Peas.  I was asked to use the new Happy Day collection from Simple Stories - this is such an fun birthday collection and I couldn't wait to use it!

This layout is copyright Two Peas in a Bucket

These are some photos I took of my nephew Eli at his first birthday celebration last year.  Isn't he such a cutie?  The distressing on these papers is great and there are so many elements and different bits and pieces that putting this layout together was a snap.  I especially love the bingo cards and flash cards included in the kit - perfect for layering with photos and stickers.

I used one of the kit stickers for my title and just added a Doodlebug button to the "i" in "birthday" for a little more detail and dimension.

I dressed up some more stickers like this cute cupcake with flag and added Doodlebug jewels as my "sprinkles."

And of course I had to add in a Technique Tuesday stamp somewhere on the layout since I'm currently obsessed with them.  The "celebrate" stamp from the "Kids Are Cool" set was perfect for this birthday layout.
