Well, here are the rest of the pages. In all I’d made 5 pages, 2 pages to wish her the best birthday, and the other three was one page each from the dad, mum and bro. I hear the young little girl loved it :) I am thankful to God I could add a little more happiness on her special day.
Cover Page
This first page is to reflect everything about this 10 yo – the dress form to reflect the little diva, the mirror like frame for the fairy tale Snow White ‘Mirror Mirror on the wall.. who is the prettiest of all!’, the crown for the dad’s little princess and the rosette to reflect the beautiful little mum’s flower that she is (and yes for the number 10 too, hehee).. and the sheet music stamp background coz she is into Western music singing. And all that pretty glitter… which girl doesn’t love some bling

Page 2 – A Rainbow Birthday Wish
I wanted a very cheerful and colourful page as the second page. I stamped the tiny little birthday stamps from Hero Arts in some light colours, then went to town with some HeroArts, PTI and Fiskars stamps.
The ‘CELEBRATE’, ‘Happy Birthday to You’ and ‘BIRTHDAY’ hand cut panels where coloured with a swish of water color. The Hero Arts cup cake was coloured by K – I used hers instead of the boring cupcake I’d coloured <grin>

Putting the pages together
- The pages were assembled the way Tejal had and also the blog she’d linked to.
- I wanted a soft feminine finish – so I chose to make the stand with Chipboard (from ItsyBitsy) covered with pages with DCWV
- I used a soft pink ribbon to hold the stand together rather
Are you still here?? :))))) Thank you so much.
