First Birthday Hat





For my project I chose to make a birthday hat for my girlfriends daughter's 1st birthday in July! I know it seem's like it's away's out there, but the summer is a really busy time for us as a family! We love to go camping and boating, and usually are gone almost every weekend!! Enough of my rambling, now onto my project!!





I love Echo Park's " Hello Summer" line and was perfect for this cute little birthday hat
I used Elmo's Party cartridge and did the hat "fit to page" which came out at about 11"
The rosette is a 12" x 1 1/2" piece of paper scored every 1/4"
The number 1 is from the Celebrations Cartridge cut at 3"
The butterflies are from Create A Critter and Serenade Cartridge cut at 3" and I inked the edges
I added brads to the sides of the hat and put pink ribbon through so we could tie it to her little head :)


Thanks for stopping by

Big Crafty Hugs,

Jenn
