Nathan's 3rd Birthday

I've had the pleasure of working with Nathan's mommy, Cari on the birthday items for his birthday every year. You can see past birthdays here: 1st birthday, 2nd birthday.

His favorite movie this year is Monsters Inc and he wanted a monsters theme to his birthday. I was oh so happy to oblige.

These monsters were so fun to create!

We made a sign for the party favors too:

And a fun coloring book for the kids in attendance:

It was simple, just an 8.5x11 page folded in half and printed on both sides.

I love how everything turned out. Happy Birthday Nathan!

Georgia's First Birthday

When Georgia's mom Sarah explained that she wanted to do an Alice in Wonderland theme for her daughter's first birthday, we spent some time brainstorming how it was going to work. Georgia's birthday is in the middle of winter and they live in Canada, where they have REAL winter. 

From there it became and Alice in WINTER Wonderland theme and we had a blast with it.

Invitation:

We also created little tags and sign for just about everything at Georgia's party. Sarah set up a hot chocolate buffet with snacks.

Guests were asked to write some well wishes and "growing up" advice on a card and put it inside the teapot. It was packed away for Georgia to read on her 18th birthday.

Yummy candy buffet favors.

Happy Birthday Georgia!!!

Tyler's 1st Birthday

Ty's mommy and daddy called him their little bug, so it was only fitting that they do a bug theme for his first birthday. We had So. MUCH. FUN with this party and I think you can tell by looking at how great everything looked. 

To add the "bites" in the invitation, we used a scalloped circle punch that you can purchase at almost any craft store. Tyler's mommy, Lindsey also used the punch on green paper plates at the party.

These labels were adhered to baby food jars and filled with goodies as favors and also on water bottles.

Lindsey got a bunch of these small bug catcher boxes for the kids in attendance and this is the favor tag I made for them.

Awesome pennant banner!

The food signs we created were supposed to fold in half and stand on their own, but the wind that day had other plans. They still turned out cute!

Lastly, we created a high chair banner and a t-shirt graphic that Lindsey ironed onto Ty's t-shirt.

Such a happy toddler, happy birthday Ty!!

Debora's 60th Birthday

Debora has some amazing children! They planned a wonderful surprise birthday party for her to share with their close friends and family. I got to work with her daughter Brandi on the paper items. Since Debora loves to travel, we made that the theme.

For the invitation I found an old map of Michigan (where they live) to place in the background along with some fun passport stamps.

Each table was named after a country Debra had visited.

And we created a program to list the sequence of events for the evening. It also had the menu on it.

Lastly, we created a sign for the candy buffet table.

Happiest of birthdays Debora!!

Lilah's 1st Birthday

Lilah's mommy Miriam had so much fun with her first birthday party. The theme was "Lilah's Sweet Shoppe" complete with candy stripes and an ice cream buffet!

Check out the fun items we created for the party:

Water bottle labels, complete with a custom nutritional label.

A sign for the front door.

We made a variety of labels and stickers for favors, games and activities that Miriam set up for the kids who attended. Each cup held a clean piping bag that had been stuffed with loofah sponges and bath soaps, mimicking ice cream and frosting.

To end we created a folded thank you card that was blank on the inside. 

Such an awesome party, happy birthday Lilah!

Emiliano's 1st Birthday

I had the pleasure of working with Emiliano's mommy, Karina on the items for his first birthday party. They were going with a cowboy theme and wanted to use softer aqua and cream colors. I love how it all turned out!

In addition to the invitation we created custom water bottle labels, complete with a customized "nutrition label."

Stickers for trail mix and s'mores favors:
