Queen For A Day

Queen For a Day- Lola's first birthday cupcake 9/12/10
Materials: American Crafts Confetti glitter paper, Bella Blvd Family Dynamix Quadrants,
American Crafts glitter alphas,  Recollections rhinestone "day" and squares,
Anna Griffin crown brad, Teal stripe alphas from CardBlanc on Etsy
Holy Canoli! I missed my Punky Scraps weekly challenge deadline! OH NOOOO! I'm really sorry Nat and team! I'll get started on my canvas project right away. And YOU- gets to creating! STAT!
Here's the creative prompt:
Punky Scraps Challenge 14- CANVAS
Fun huh?  Why did I think this was due next week? ARGH!

American Crafts "Confetti" line is so CUTE!!!! I wish I had more items but a girl can only spend so much on crafty goodies. Dude when did cheese get so expensive? A pound of grapes, some Heluva Good extra sharp cheddar cheese and a loaf of bread= 12 bucks! I almost fell over! Lola cannot LIVE without her mac and cheese and broccoli lunch so I am one broke Momma.

In scrap related "news"- I have an entire BOX of bling that I've never used! I have bling words, bling shapes, bling animals, bling EVERYTHING- how did I not use my stash on every page? A mystery!
I really love how it brightens up a page but it's super hard to get it to shine on camera- a simple bounce card next to the camera lens to reflect light back onto the page fixes that right up.

I hope you have a wonderful Easter! It will be raining here in NYC so we will spend the day watching movies and playing inside. No eggs this year- Miss Lola is too young and thinks throwing them is more fun.
Miss Lola walks in Alphabet City- that FACE!!! 
Special thanks to Amy- Curly Q Mosaics! she sent me a beautiful package of home made buttons and a gorgeous Easter Themed ATC. I plan to use those buttons on my pages- one even reads:

MUcHoS SmOoChEs!
Loves it!

    I am so happy you received it before Easter! That is so funny that she was sticking the Peeps to the walls! I would have to agree, that would be much funner than eating them. :)

    Your layout of Miss Lola is precious! I of course adore all the bling and the red/white candy striped border!

    I look forward to your layout with the buttons. I am sure they will look great on there, of course every layout you make is over-the-top fabulous!
