Ok sorry I am late posting this, with my daughter's birthday yesterday I was still kind of hoping to have this project done and uploaded but alas time got the better of me. Any hoo here is the first heart that I finished for my daughter. I was biting my tongue yesterday whether to tease her with what I had done so far or wait until the final set were done or perhaps keep mum about the whole thing entirely and surprise her for Christmas. So far I have decided to stay mum at least for now and kind of on the Christmas gift part..I may just do that..depends on how much I can keep a tight lip and whether or not she visits the blog and sees the project.
She did love the cake I made yesterday and officially declared this her birthday cake request for all future birthdays..it was pretty yummy, those candied pecans really made it over the top.
Back to the project, so I tried to keep it on the simpler side since the pp had a lot of words in it. Funny I don't know how long I had that pp since I tend to see things and think "oh that's cute, I just know I'll use it on some boy page" (I have two full grown boys now) and here it is probably a good 5-8 years later, but at least I am using up my older product so it's all good.
I plan on keeping the blue theme across all 3 hearts but not all 3 the same and am kind of on the fence about that ribbon, wondering if it needs to be wider..any thoughts?
I think this is AWESOME exactly as it is! The photo is the focal point of a stunning gift! Your daughter will LOVE these three gifts! Great use for the cake boards - I love thinking outside the box!
