Angry Birds Invite

My DD recently turned 5 years old.  She told me she wanted an Angry Birds beach party...here's the invitation that I made for her party.  During my hunt for an easy Angry Birds punch art design, I came across Teri's design.  I absolutely loved it and knew it would be the way to go (thanks Teri!). I ended up using her punch art design for some coloring books I put together for the kids goodie bags and for the party favors as well (I'll share those a little later).

Having both my kids in school now has definitely been an adjustment.  Since I'm a SAHM and both of them are in school, I thought I'd have more free time on my hands during the week - um, I was definitely WRONG!  With all of the homework and afterschool commitments on top of my volunteer work in both of their classrooms, I am finding little time to do much else - especially crafting!  But I wouldn't change this time for anything in the world.  Being able to be there for my kids in and out of school (while they still LET ME) is something I'll cherish forever!

Birthday Party Invitations

These are the invitations I made a few weeks ago for by DD's 4th birthday party that's coming up at the end of this month. She chose her party theme this year and I was so happy that she chose (WITHOUT any persuasion from me what so ever) Hello Kitty...since I love HK too!! ;-) I decided to make these pocket card invites since they come together so quickly...and they matched the M&M's favors that I had already started putting together (see below). :-)I hope you had a great weekend!! It went by way too fast for me! :-(

Baby Shower Invites

hehehe...okay, I know I threw a few of you off with my last post title! I'm just that behind on things!! Hopefully I'll be able to get caught up on everything. I even had to go out and buy a birthday card this past weekend (GASP)! I just haven't quite got my schedule down yet since my son started kindergarten! Ugh, I hate feeling so disorganized!!

Anyways, moving on, my DH and I are planning a sorta baby shower for his sister and her DH and DD. It's going to be more like a family get together since my DH wants to throw a shower for them BUT does not want any of the games included! So here are the invites I quickly put together last week. Again, like everything else in my life right now, these were late since the party is in less than a month! Oh well, better late than never is my new motto!! heehee!!

Thank you for your sweet comments and for continuing to visit my blog...especially since I post so infrequently!! :-) I appreciate all of you!!

Easel Card Invites

I threw these invites together last night for my upcoming Christmas party with some friends from high school. It was the first time I made easel cards and I was surprised by how fast they come together!!

(I took this picture with my phone before I sent them out which is why it's not a real good picture!)

Strawberry Invitations

My DD will be celebrating her 3rd birthday in a few weeks. She is so into Strawberry Shortcake now. I searched and searched for a Strawberry Shortcake stamp but could not find one anywhere. So I came up with these, using my handy dandy Cricut, for her birthday party invites. I made about 25 of these in a couple of days (in between finishing up my MIL's Thank You cards)!! Thanks for stopping by! :-) I attached a small Strawberry Shortcake picture that I printed off the computer to the inside. I cut a little pop up slit to mount it on.
