The Birthday should be all about the Birthday Girl. And that goes for any scrapbook layout documenting the fabulous day and related events. This leaves a bit of a problem when it comes to making sure that all the birthday GUESTS get their little spot in the album. Keri Babbitt has offered us the perfect solution using the July 2012 It’s My Party kit (and specifically the Heidi Swapp file folder included in the kit).

Check out the Birthday Girl 12×12 Layout and Keri’s ingenious use of the file folder (from this month’s Little Black Dress Kit Club’s kit) to give the Birthday guests all the face time in the album you could ever want without taking any of the “special” attention away from the birthday girl:

Aww…is there anything more adorable than a little girl who knows just how special she is when she wakes up on her birthday? I love it. And I absolutely lOvE LoVE LOVE how Keri brought that birthday “special” right onto this layout. Her us of the trims and the papers and that awesome paper bow and the alphas and the huge numbers all came together to make this a layout completely worthy of this little princess’s BIG day.

Closeup Alert:

And then…you get to open it up and see her tribute to the celebration and all those who attended said birthday girl’s PAR-TAY! It’s so fun, I’ll stop talking about it and simply let you see it for yourself:

I’ll say it again, AWWWW….I adore this layout, the secret foldout layout and the entire idea. I’ve never seen a better or more adorable method of documenting all the friends of the birthday girl that came out to celebrate and party the day away. Thanks for sharing it with us, Keri!
