Party Time

This is a 12"x12" single page layout. The background cardstock is from My Mind's Eye, as is the cardstock for the scalloped circle. The patterned cardstock for the photo mat is from DCWV. The rest of the cardstock and paper is from my stash. The scalloped circle was cut from Mini Monograms at 10." I used Once Upon a Princess for the rest of the cuts. The title was cut at 3" and the tag behind it was cut using the cut to length feature at 7 1/4." The white tag was cut at 3" and I added two butterfly brads to the sides. The rose was cut at 2 1/2." I embossed the rose with the D'vine Swirls folder and the party hat was embossed with the Swiss Dots folder. The photo mat was cut at 4 1/4"x6 1/4" and the lime green layer was cut 1/8" larger, this way it is ready for a 4"x6" photo. I adhered everything to the base layer, except the rose...I used pop-dots to adhere that to the page.
I made this for the following challenges:
