A Birthday Surprise

Happy Birthday Pail Created by OMC Designer Machelle



Supplies Used:

Stampendous : Clear 1 Quart Pail w/ Handle
Basic Grey : Bling it On
Prima : Butterfly Embellishment
We Are Memory Keepers : Wide Shimmer Eyelets
Oh My Vinyl : Lilac, Grape, Transfer Tape
Various Purple Ribbon

Instructions:

1. Cut "Happy Birthday" and the name using the Silhouette Machine in both lilac and grape vinyl. I used Berlin Sans FB for "Happy Birthday" and made it 1½" x 1”, and I used the Saginaw font for "Haleigh", cutting it 3”X4”. You can choose your fonts and colors as desired.

2. After cutting the phrases, use transfer tape and apply to pail. Press firmly and then remove transfer tape and then do same process using second color, offsetting the second layer so you can see both colors.
3. Decorate the pail using any embellishments you have. I used the Prima butterfly and then tied the eyelets to the ribbon so they hung from the can for a fun look.

TIP: Fill the pail with small lip gloss or lotions etc. for a fun Birthday Surprise. The pail can be reused for storing hair ribbons, pencils etc. or for decoration.


Happy crafting!
