Theme Challenges, Crackle Paint & Birthdays

Paper Popsicles select a "Theme" every month for their fun challenges! This January, the theme is "Firsts". I participated in two of the challenges thus far, these are the resulting layouts!

This page, along the same theme was an absolute scraplift from DT JackieG at Paper Popsicles. Her page was so amazing, and beautiful... that I couldn't help but attempt to make one myself for my friends' baby album. It uses products from the "Mini Kit" which is soooo not mini!

And yet another birthday page with this great kit!

I'm posting this photo especially for my friend "Lambcrop" who bought some crackle paint and wondered what to do with it! Here are some Costco recycled olive jars and some smaller recycled lotion jars. I painted the lids with crackle paint then applied liquid glass to smooth it out! I supposed a modge podge would also work. Then I glued some Prima flowers and embellies, added a few stickle dots....and voila....some pretty flower and button jars for my scraproom!
