Birthday Party Decor & Gifts

Tutorial by Maria Smeshkova

“Hello everyone! May is my favorite time because my beloved daughter was born this month. And today I want to show you how I created the decor for her birthday party. I made little gift boxes for guests, cupcake toppers and a banner. All of them are multi-colored but perfectly combined because I used bright and juicy Grow with Love collection.

I decorated the top of the boxes with die-cuts in the shape of butterfly wings and added some crystals. I used stamps and embossing for the toppers, and placed photos of my daughter on the banner.

I think the decoration turned out very cute and girly.
