ScrapMatters Birthday Blog Train!

Toot, Toot!!! Welcome to the ScrapMatters 3rd Birthday Blog Train! I hope you've already picked up a ton of amazing goodies on this incredible blog train! You should have arrived here from Amber's blog. And now, you're here, in the middle of Michigan, with me, Becca (aka becca372).

So, birthdays rock, don't they? They're very interesting to me, now, with 2 little girls. Both of my girls have April birthdays (15 days apart), so celebrating their birthdays with family and friends is a bit more challenging now...separate parties, or together? It's hard to plan, especially with Easter in the mix as well! This year was our youngest's first birthday, and so it was the first time we had a blended birthday party...whew! It was fun, but quite a challenge...twice the cake, twice the presents, twice the everything! Here's a layout I scrapped about their first shared party:



I used the brand new Cupcakes & Candles collab kit by the ScrapMatters Design Team. ScrapMatters is giving away the Cupcakes & Candles Collab kit for FREE with a $20 purchase right now (or $8.50 all on it's own...but you know there's more than the collab you want at ScrapMatters!!!).



It's an amazing kit all on it's own, but the Design and Creative Teams have made you some awesome freebies to go along with it. Grab them now, don't wait, because in about a week, all the freebies will be disabled, packaged up, and sold in the shop--so get 'em while they're free!!! Here's mine, a stacked paper (I used it in my layout, above), which I really dig!



(sorry, this freebie is no longer available).


And now you'll all be headed to Suzanne's blog for her fabulous freebie. Now, remember, if any of the links on the train don't work, or if someone's post somehow didn't get up and running (we're all trying our best!!!) head back to the ScrapMatters blog for the master list to follow!

Hope you enjoy, and get lots of inspiration to scrap with!!!
