Can you believe Celebrate is Club Scrap's 200th kit? Celebration time!!!
This collection is also perfect for birthday parties!
This is the good thing about being on a Design Team...I feel motivated to catch up on my scrapbooks...ha! I'm using photos from my second son's birthday from a couple of years ago:

Let's take a look at the left page...

I cut a slit with a craft knife, near the flourish on the patterned paper, just wide enough to weave the ribbon (Fiber):

I backed the yellow circle die cut with another die cut and adhered the blue star Puffy Patch on top. The embellishment was adhered on page with foam tapes. I added one of the Paper Fasteners on the journaling cutapart:

I used 3 Banner Stickers on thread (from my stash):

Let's take a look at the right page...

I fussy cut the orange patterned paper and adhered it on the blue cardstock for a border:

I added orange photo mats and an embellishment cutapart. I also added a patterned Bottle Cap:

I added a ribbon (Fiber) and another Bottle Cap at the bottom, but this time, I put a black Paper Fastener in the Bottle Cap trapped with Mod Podge Dimensional Magic with glitter:

I love the shine the glitter adds to it, but I must say you have to squeeze a bunch before the glitter comes out (good thing I had to fill up the bottle cap)! And don't shake it, trying to get the glitter down...you get lots of bubbles!

And if you're all caught up with party photos, you can also use this collection for other themes...I love the black & silver patterned paper and the glitter paper!
I was inspired by the Jan sketch at Scrapping Everyday Miracles:

I layered the papers, added ribbon, flowers, embellishments and the die cut title.

I inked the edges of the die cuts and adhered the big one with foam tape:

Can you also see the white Paper Fastener on the black ribbon (Fiber)?

Here's another pic showing the pretty glitter paper's shine:
