happy birthday layout with Artbooking (for BBTB2)

I've started playing with the new Artbooking cartridge (that I got for my birthday) for the BBTB2 challenge, selected by my fabulous DT sister Melanie!   I have a ton of birthday pictures to get scrapped from Son#1's b-day last week (and a few from mine), so I played with the birthday layout ideas.

This cartridge has TONS of overlays!  Artbooking is kind of different in the sizing from the typical cricut cart, so all this (frame, titles, overlays, presents, and cupcake) was cut at the 11 inch size-the handbook tells you the size to cut everything at.  (Very convenient if you are making the layout like theirs, not so much if you are trying to cut individual elements for your project, which I was trying to do for another project.)  The fun print papers are from the Bo Bunny Surprise collection.


Cricut:
Artbooking-all cuts, sized at 11 inches, including star overlay, picture frame, presents, cupcake, titles.
Paper-Bo Bunny Surprise collection prints and journal box, CTMH solids
brown chalk ink

Check out the DT projects for some overlay inspiration and link up your project with us :)
