34 Balloons and Counting Blog HOP Hosted by KinderStampo

Welcome everyone to the 34 Balloons and Counting Blog HOP.  How exciting an new year and everyone gets a year older.  Birthdays are always so fun and I am so happy that Jessica from KinderStampo asked me to participate in the hop.  There are 43 wonderful stops on this hop.  You will be a hopping maniac after this. :D  Make sure you get through the whole hop because there are some awesome ideas here that you can use all year.

You should have arrived here from Sarah PinkCricut http://www.pinkcricut.com/.  If not you can start at the beginning over at KinderStampO www.KinderStampO.com.
 The theme for this hop is Birthday so, I decided to make some cute invites or you can use them as Birthday cards. :D

Here is what you will need:

You will also need  your Cuttlebug , your Swiss Dots folder and your Swirls Folder (not pictured)
Here is the Super cute and fun Invite :

 

These invites were so fun to make and are super easy. :D

The Details:

For this little cutie, I used my gypsy and welded together 2 party hats form the Martha Stewart Seasonal Cakes Cartridge making sure to use the flip feature on the right hat not the left hat. Otherwise they will not line up right. They are cut at 5 1/2inches.  

 Here is where I used the flip feature, the arrow points to what was flipped.

Her on the picture to the left you can see that i ran the strips to the invite through the Swiss dots folder and the top of the invite through the swirls folder.   Also, bling and a Prima flower were added to the top of the hat to add some sparkle and fun. :D   To the blue hat I added a bling and a pom pom to change it up a bit.          

For the sentiment I used My Pink Stamper Stamps and cut the bottom off of a tab that coordinated with the hat.  Pop Dots were added for some dimension.

I hope you had a great time up to this point.  You are almost done so hang in there for the last few.  You won't be sorry. :D  Your next stop on the Hop is the very talented  Sigrid from http://lovescrapreflect.blogspot.com/

Hugs and Blessings,
