Happy Birthday Art Deco Style

My father-in-law's birthday is fast approaching and I wanted to do something a little different. So I bought the Art Deco cartridge from Micheal's during the Thanksgiving sale. It's very 20's flapper style...not that my father-in-law is that old. I just thought it would be really cool to do it up ol' school.

All papers are from Recollections 835x11 paper packs.

Cricut Image Cartridge: page37<HghlndPk>, <Hglnd-s> , <layer hghlndk> and <layer hghlnd-s> size 5.75. This was hard to put together at this size. Its definitely better at a 6.5 or higher. The book says not to do it smaller than 5 inches but the top segment on <layer hghlndk> was very hard to get off so I ended up having to use the inside which is not used to make it work. I also used the Teresa Collins 6x6 paper pack called "World Traveler". The stamp sentiment on the inside comes from The Stamps of Life set called "pinwheels2stamp" by Stephanie Barnard.

Glitter Glue Dots -- Oh My!!!

Glitter Glue Dot Technique I used Stampin Up paper mellow moss Michaels Recollections stamps VersaMark watermark stamp pad Michaels Recollection extra fine glitter - Apricot 3 different paper tapes (can not remember by who) I saw a video where the lady laid out glue dots and used embossing powder and heat set it. So I decided to use glitter and use the small glue dots and it came out pretty cool. I may try this on a larger area or even try the embossing technique. My goal is to try more techniques that I find in magazines as well as enter more blog competions.
