Happy Day - Fortnite Party Layout - CraftOnline Creative Team

I really wanted to scrap E's Fortnite themed Birthday but as there is no Fortnite themed supplies I decided to pull a few things together from CraftOnline and created a Fortnite kit for myself. 
If you have a Fortniter in the family then this bundle of goodies will suit your needs to scrap those Fortnite photos.

Items used

Poppy Crafts Paper Pad Textured Cardstock 6x6

Other items bought but not used for this layout
(I will use these items on another Fortnite layout that I will share on the blog later.)

Doodle Pops Fry Day
Doodle Pops Pizza Love
Doodle Pops Well Done 
Poppy Crafts Ribbons Greens
Poppy Crafts Ribbons Violets

For the Supply Drop I cut my pieces from from the Doodlbebug Designs Petite Prints papers using a nice blue for the box/basket I ensured my paper just on the box and a little over the bow to give me a surface to glue.  For the yellow I cut it so that the entire bow and balloon was cover.  I cut 2 different yellows and 2 of the same blue.
Then I die cut some trees with the Poppy Crafts 3 Pine Trees Die from the dark green in the Poppy Crafts Textured Cardstock paper pad ready for my layouts. 



Next I sorted the die cuts from the American Crafts Pebbles Happy Hooray Ephemera Die Cuts to find the ones that might suit my layout.  Then I precut the papers I wanted to use on my layout into random sizes so they were ready to got and I mounted my photos with the dark blue paper in the Poppy Crafts Textured Cardstock paper pad.

Having everything ready to go meant I could work quickly and just focus on playing with my supplies to help tell the story of the photos I was using. 
Watch the video to see how I played with my papers and supplies until happy with what I had.

 

I pieced my Fortnite Supply Drop by gluing the main balloon piece to the box where the bow is.
Next I pieced the Balloon pieces together using the different yellow pieces to give shading.  I stuck them together with The Stickmaster heat resistant tape.

I adhered my balloons directly to my page with Helmar Acid Free Glue  and with my trees I adhered some with Helmar Acid Free Glue but then popped some up with Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots to give my forest dimension.
I adhered the die cut banner Happy Day on top of my trees with Helmar Acid Free Glue  and adhere the stars from the pack randomly to the right, placing one on the supply drop box to hide a mistake.

I finished my layout off with a doodly border and called it done.

E love seeing the first layout about his Fortnite Party done and is looking forward to my getting some more scrapped with my little kit I have pulled together.

Fortnite Birthday Party DIYS - Helmar Creative Team

My son really wanted a Fortnite party for his 12^th Birthday and there wasn’t much available that suited so I did a few quick DIY’s for it, I wanted to share with you how I created some of them with Helmar.

Supply DROP container

You will need
Blue storage container
Yellow Cardstock to die cut the letters
Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive
Helmar Crystal Kote Matte Varnish

Cut 2 lots of the letters DROP from yellow cardstock in a sort of stencil font, I used my Silhouette Curio for this but you could do it by hand also.












 Adhere the letters to each side of the container with Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive.

Once Dry give the letters a coat of Helmar Krystal Kote Matte Varnish to protect them.
On the day of the party tie a Yellow balloon to the handles for the DROP to arrive.

Chug Jugs

You will need
Cans of soft drink
Printable chug jug labels
Hemlar Premium Craft Glue

Once you have printed the labels and cut them out adhere them to your cans with Helmar Premium Craft Glue.

Med Kits

You will need
White Cardstock
Red paper, serviette or tissue paper scraps cut into inch wide strips
White paper scraps
Helmar Craft & Hobby PVA

Cut the box shape out of the white cardstock, I used my Silhouette Curio and a box template I found online and sized the file so I could get 2 to a A4 sheet.

Assemble the boxes with Helmar Craft & Hobby PVA
Adhere the red strip (I cut mine from a red serviette) around the box.
Adhere a white + (I just cut mine from scrap printer paper) to the top of the box on the red strip.
Before sealing the red strip I added a clear glitter high bounce ball and some lollies in it.

Mini brown paper pags for Fries

You will need
Brown Paper Bags
Helmar Craft & Hobby PVA
12 inch trimmer
Cut each paper bag in quarters.
Cut a half inch away from what will be the bottom for the bags from the top half.
Fold over the side and bottom and glue with Helmar Craft & Hobby PVA.

I bought some French Fries Origninal chips and put them in small ziploc bags to keep them fresh until the kids ate them, this went inside the mini brown paper bags.  And they were put on the table next to Burger Gummie lollies from Aldi and served with Pizza. 
The kids loved that they were getting Fortnite food.

I also applied Shield Potion labels I found online to water bottles.  I filled the Drop Box with the Chug Jugs, Shield Potions and $1 water guns from The Reject Shop so it served as a supply drop and prompted a water fight.

I was hoping to convert a donky pinata to a Fortnite Llama pinata by removing the rainbow tissue papers and adhering the correct colours to it with Helmar Craft & Hobby PVA but I ran out of time so I just glued a printable version of the saddle bags to my rainbow donky with Helmar Craft & Hobby PVA the kids loved it but I couldn't get a good photo as the wind kept blowing it sideways.  It took a while to break due to the wind as the kids kept missing it so we ditched the blindfold due to the wind.

This all came together quickly and they kids loved it all.   Much fun was had and lots of happy memories on the day.
