Birthday Invitations



This will have a few pictures in the post of invitations I made for my niece's sleepover party. I purchased these domino boxes from AC Moore. The Slumber Party is made with my cricut and then I had added clear glass beads on the letters to make it sparkle! I used glitter paper on the sides with sleepover stickers, ice cream stickers, cupcake stickers, glitter glue. Inside I found these cute little animals at Michael's that the hands that Velcro together -the invite, which is on velum paper, I rolled into a scroll format and put it in the hands of each stuffed animal. I wrapped my invite with the extra tulle I had from my Halloween costume and used random ribbon to hold it together. I spent $1.19 on each box, stickers where buy 1 get one free at AC Moore - and I used a coupon so it wasn't that expensive. The glitter paper was a bit pricey at $1 a sheet but I only needed 3 of each color and the tool is from Walmart for $1 a yard.



Here is a side view of the boxes.






Here is the little stuffed animal I found in Michael's - each girl has a separate animal.

All wrapped up in his/her blanket - another piece of random material I had left over.


This is the Birthday Girls actual invitation - she wanted one too!!


This is all 7 invitations together. Way to cute!


I will post pictures of the favor bags as well - using tulle instead of tissue paper.

Chocolate Rush Girl



Here is my niece from last summer as we went to this fab little ice cream booth on the side of the road and she wanted nothing but chocolate and this time the girl gave her heated fudge and she was so excited - I didn't even know you could heat this stuff up she said - here she is all chocolatie and loving every bite!

Finally


I finally had a few minutes to create a few layouts. I actually didn't go to spinning class for once so this is definitely a good excuse to miss class! This was a layout of my father with his 2nd Grand-daughter Sara at her Christening.

Sweet and Sassy





Here is a two page layout of my niece at church. As you can see the 1st picture is lovely, then the smile seems to disappear and starts to turn ugly - take the picture already! I used Prima flowers and some awesome chipboard from the stash!

Happy Olivia


Here is my lovely God Daughter again Olivia - under the broadwalk in Seaside New Jersey last year. We walked the entire beach to go under here and you can only go so far no longer a pass through. What an adventure!

Kate and Me


Here is another simple layout of my stash and Prima Flowers from last years line, chip board hearts and ribbon from Chick n Feed. I actually in 6 years finally scrapped a pic of myself. This is my niece Kate - or my 'mini me' I'm told and me at my other niece's Sara's christening.

The Cake Vulchers


This was a simple layout that I put together in no time - easy. I used what I consider my left overs in the stock this weekend - trying to use up the old before the new arrives!

Where Have I Been?

OK - so I didn't realize I haven't posted since prior to Christmas / Holidays !! YIKES!!! I know I have a lot of scrapping to do but I didn't realize it's been a month since my last post. I guess this weekend will be a busy scrappy weekend. I do have some digital files / pics I can upload to share which are so much faster than the paper scrapping but I still love my paper scrapping more!

CHA is coming soon I can't wait to see what the new lines for 2012 will be? I hope last years shabby sheek style is replaced with bright and fun colors!!!
