Beautiful **Unique Laser Designs & Imagination Crafts & Paper House***

I love having tags on hand to add to presents instead of cards, and with all the little girl birthday parties I will end up going to I know this little beauty will come in handy to add to cute little gift we will give to the birthday girl.

I used the wonderful wood butterflies from Unique Laser Designs at the top of the tag.  They are just to cute and sweet and perfect for this little tag!  I love a plain look as seen below, but for this tag I wanted them to sparkle, but not too much.

So I first pressed the wood into the embossing medium (like Versamark) to amek it "sticky" for the mica powders to stick.  I used a pale pink color to match the colors in the tag and just used a small dry paint brush to apply the powder tot eh sticky wood.  I used the wonderful mica powders from Imagination Crafts.

The shine and shimmer is just beautiful when it is done, it just catches the light perfectly, and it will not rub off!!  There is no drying time so to make these little shiny gems is super easy and fast too!!

For the main part of the card I used the wonderful Paper House papers and stickers.  Their cute Little Girl Quilt paper just begs to cut cut apart and used for a tag, and the little Puffy stickers match perfectly.  I topped it off with a chipoxy "beautiful" sticker from the Mom sticker pack, but every little girl loves to be told they are beautiful!!

Tags can be used instead of cards, so have fun making some tags for a change of pace!!

Princess Card **Paper House**

I made this card using the wonderful Little Girl Paper pad and Little Princess 3D Stickers from Paper House.  My 2 year old daughter just loved this paper pad calling it her “pretty book”.  She would sit down with it in my scrap room and “read” it telling me she sees castles, cupcakes, kitties, horse, and so on.  It was just too cute that I know I had to do something super cute with the paper pad.  The pages the book measure 6x6, so it is just perfect for cards!!  We have a little girl birthday coming up, and so we made a special card for the birthday girl.

 

 I used several sheets from the Little Girl Pad to create the front, inside, and back of the card - 6 sheets total.

 

I had made the card, front, back, and insides when my daughter came up to me and asked “where is pretty?” – translation where is the sparkle!?!?!  So with my daughter in mind and to make it “pretty” I added lots of sparkle!

Here are the directions for creating this card

1) I used white cardstock for the base – the front of the card measuring 6.5 x 5 inches.

2) Cut out 4 sections from the paper pad measuring 6.5 x 5 inches to cover all 4 sides of the card – I used all the non pictures papers for this from the pack (teal, pink, purple, etc).

3) I then picked out 2 large graphic images (the castle and unicorn) for the front and back of the card measuring 6 x 4.5 inches.

4) Ink all the edges in pink.

 

5) Glue down to the card.

6) Add liquid glitter (stickles) to make is shine.

7) Add sparkly princess sticker to the front and Happy Birthday alpha stickers inside.

There is nothing like a little girl with a happy smile because she loves something pretty, and it so fun to see her face light up because you gave it to her.
