Birthday Bouquet!

This is a Birthday bouquet for a 1 year old's birthday party! His mother is a co-worker of mine, and she's totally into cupcakes! When she showed me the plates and theme for his party, I knew the sweet treats cart would be PERFECT!!!! She even had the perfect container to use for the bouquet, so I borrowed it and will give it back to her looking like this!






One unusual thing: the colors for this party are:
Royal Blue
Lime Green
Aqua
and Yellow (with a little red thrown in)



I embossed each of the letters in Ryker's name with the Happy Birthday cuttlebug folder - I'm not sure if you can see it in the pictures.



The letters are from the Mickey Font cart, and all the cupcakes and the 1 for his first birthday are all from the Sweet Treats cart!

Bridal Shower!

One of my colleagues is getting married at the end of November, and we had a small "work" shower for her. I made the centerpiece to go on the cake table, and then on the Cricut Messageboard I saw a post about a towel cake... I just had to make one! It turned out so cute!

I also made this card for her shower.

Mom's Cricut Bouquet

OK, Yes, I said I was done with those bouquets for awhile, but Mom came to visit, so I just HAD to make her one.. I had a clay pot, and floral foam left to do just ONE more.... but I made her help!

I used the Walk in my Garden cartridge, and if you look in the flowers, you'll see a bee, butterfly, and ladybug.

Instead of cutting 2 black shadows, I cut one shadow, and 2 colored pieces, so each of the pieces in the bouquet is 2 sided, and can be viewed at any angle. Mom wants to put it on the kitchen table, so I thought that would help solve the 1 sided problem with my school project pots.

I hope you enjoy!

2 More Locker Talk Bouquets

So the story goes that our Library assistant was sad to see the centerpieces I made leave our library and go to the conference room, so I made one for her - and my principal asked me to make one for our front office. Here's the office centerpiece. As always, comments are welcome. I really enjoy making these, but now I'm done for a bit. I think the next centerpieces will be flowers - just for variety!

Here they are!
I got the inspiration for these flowerpot bouquets from the Cricut Messageboard http://www.cricut.com/ and since I just got the Locker Talk cart, I knew I HAD to use it!!!
In the library, we have 6 tables used for meetings, etc. I think these will be GREAT centerpieces!
Most of the cuts are 3 inches - I used Stickles for highlights, and got advice from the messageboard members on how to mount the cuts to the sticks. Once I figured that out with their help, I was off and running! I also used some stickers to decorate the pots so they weren't so plain, and used paper confetti to cover the tops of the pots.
As always, comments are welcome.
