Hannah Montana Party Favors / Scrapbook Pal Design Team Entry

Hello everyone!

Please excuse me as I'm still getting a handle on how this blog thing works. I promise to post on a more regular schedule. Now on to today's craft...

For my daughter's 7th Birthday she wanted a Hannah Montana themed Birthday Party, so we did what every parent would do and rented a recording studio for her and her friends to be rock stars for the day. We found the perfect place at Rockstar Recording Studio in Ft. Lauderdale. The owners were great and the girls recorded several Hannah Montana songs, each getting a cd of the recording.  Since everything was handled by the recording studio I felt a little out of my element because I was not up until midnight making bags, decorations, favors, piñatas, etc. I had even ordered the Hannah Montana cricut cartridge and I had no use for it!

So what's a crafty lady to do? The day before the party I went to Walmart and found this awesome metallic paper, I went home, started playing around with my cricut and decided to make favor bags for all the girls to take their cd's home in.

Here's what I came up with....

I used the Cricut Plantin Schoolbook cartridge to make the bag on various colored cardstock papers. Then using the Hannah Montana Cricut Cartridge and Design Studio I cut out the Hannah Monatana silhouette on the metallic paper. Cutting the HM logo was a little trickier because it's actually the whole named spelled out. Using Design Studio I was able to hide the rest of the letters leaving the HM only. I glued everthing into place, added some tissue paper and  voila...we had party favors!

P.S. Still learning how to use this blog thing, so if you want the cut files please email me. Don't have a Cricut but want the bags, go to my Etsy site.
