 I wanted to create a bright and happy layout for my son's birthday party photos using some of the fun new product. Here's a look at the two page layout- let's have a closer look at all the new products used on these scrapbook pages.

On the left hand side of the page, I started off by using the Noteworthy Paper Packet as the main paper. The music notes went perfectly with the music themed birthday party! 

I used the new colour Capri Cardstock for a photo mat and accent strip- how beautiful is this colour? Then I added some stickers from the new Smarty Pants Sticker Sheet and used the Smarty Pants Zip Strip for the rainbow accent.

I also used the new Smarty Pants Picture My Life Cards to mat the journal circle I created using the Smarty Pants Stamp Set and Thin Cuts. 

On the right hand side of the layout, I kept with the same layout and matted my photos in Lemonade Cardstock as well as using more of the musical note paper.

The title was stamped using the awesome new Celebration Alphabet stamp set- you can stamp the outline and the inside separately and create any colour combo you want! I used Nectarine, Lemonade, Candy Apple, Avocado and Sapphire inks to create this. The little "happy" above the stamped alphabet comes from the new Love Story Scrapbooking stamp set.

The last new product I used on this layout was the gorgeous Capri Glitter Paper- it doesn't look this dark in real life and it added a fun,. party themed touch to the layout. 

Now "Hop" on over to Gina's Blog to see her work! Be sure to visit all the Consultants at their Blogs to get some great crafting ideas and other fun ideas! 

Here's a quick visual list of all the new products I used on this layout for reference.
