Let's Party

That is our theme this week at The Cuttlebug Spot and what a fitting time - we have had the holidays and then started off the year with birthdays for my Mother-in-law, a nephew and then in a couple weeks my baby girl will be 18 along with my nephew celebrating his birthday the same day Cait turns 18!!! We get a little reprieve then til the end of March when it is my darlin' hubby's birthday!!!

I chose to make a super fun pinwheel for my party favor this week. Don't you just remember growing up playing with these and having so much fun with such a simple toy? Those were definitely amazing days when life was so much simpler! I used papers from my Honey I'm Home kit at Scrapbooking Deals 4 U and my nesties to cut out 4 cardstock scalloped circles and then 2 patterned paper circles. I embossed the cardstock circles then cut both the scalloped and patterned paper circles in half and assembled as shown! In addition I threw together one of the cute sour cream containers just to use up the last piece of that paper!!

Just to cover all bases...................

I am not the best scrapper out there. I don't claim to be totally original, I lift from many places and in many forms from color combinations, to product usage, to technique and so forth. I try to be fair to all scrappers out there and mention them when I lift from them - now keep in mind, there are so many people out there scrapping, card making and altering items that naturally more than one person will have similar ideas. When I mention lifting, or casing as some call it, I mean when you intentionally take a design you see and duplicate it exactly or only change up the coloring........KWIM???

With that said..........
