Princess Blog Hop

:
Welcome to my blog and the Princess Blog Hop.  If you happen to stumble upon my Blog and would like to play along please do so by starting at Sylvia's blog over at www.bellascrapbookdesigns.blogspot.com
To check out the Sweet Stamping Treats giveaway click here.

For this hop I decided to make something for a little princess that I know. She is very special, and I thought that she deserved something pretty and hand made for her bedroom.
This is Miss Olivia. She is 2 1/2 months old and has the most beautiful blue eyes. Olivia and her Mommy are visiting from out of state. They came to be with Olivia's grandfather, who passed away from cancer on Thursday. Little Olivia is having a hard time with all of this, constant changes in location and lack of routine have made her a bit fussy. And I know exactly how Mommy feels, as I lost my own mother to cancer more than 20 years ago.  
 



So I made this banner for Olivia to take home with her and hang in her room. I hope that it will remind Olivia and her Mommy that someone out here besides Grandpa thinks she is a princess.

I cut the castles from Life's a Beach, and I used Best Creations patterned paper and glitter paper to create them. I also backed them with chipboard so they would be sturdy enough for the travel home.


I made a crown, because what princess would be complete without her crown? This one is from Happily Ever after. Of course I did some resizing with my Gypsy. I punched holes in each of the designs and ran some satin ribbon through them and tied bows.

And a of course a heart. Olivia is sure the be a heart breaker soon with those baby blues. This one is from Create a Critter and I really like the way it looks.

The font I used to cut out the letters is Jasmine. And what would a Princess Blog Hop be without candy?
I have put together some sweet blog candy for you. This includes a Chatterbox album in chocolate brown (i love this one by the way) some Inkadinakdo damask stamps, a set of 66 chipboard flowers from Making Memories, and all the other fun crafty stuff you see here.
