When Ethan turned one, his mommy Jessica wanted to do a fun woodland theme for his party. The invitation I created had a faux wood grain background and some pretty cute animals if I do say so myself. Check it out!
The little orange fox is my favorite!
Katie's mom, Angie and I brainstormed some theme ideas for her 7th birthday party. Katie wasn't really set on a specific theme so it was up to us. Katie loves a group of books titled Groovy Joe, so we decided on a disco dance party. While I couldn't actually use images of Groovy Joe himself, I did use a pretty groovy pink disco ball and we had fun with the graphics.
Address and rsvp info changed to protect privacy.
Of course, AFTER these were printed, we realized we should have called Angie "DJ Spin Master Ang" or something equally hilarious.
As a fun party favor, Angie made these VIP passes for all of Katie's guests to wear. I LOVE how they turned out.
I may or may not have been wearing this VIP pass around my house the other day.
Happy, happy birthday Katie! I hope you disco dance party was a blast!! XOXO!
I was thrilled when Jen asked me to create an invitation for Alice's first birthday, everyone calls her Allie Mae. She was having an Alice in Wonderland themed party and it was so much fun to work on graphics for her big day.
Here's the invitation:
At the party, Jen set up plain donuts and lots of glazes and toppings so everyone could decorate their own. It was SO much fun, my boys had a blast decorating their own.
Jen made Mad Hatter hats for eveyrone with plastic headbands and paper cups. They turned out SO fun!
It was such a fun party, thanks you so much for inviting us Jen, and happy birthday Allie Mae!
For her second birthday, Julianna's mommy JoAnna wanted to do an ice cream party. So we had fun with some watercolor textures for her invitation and the other items she had printed for the party. I love how it all turned out!
We did favor tags:
And an ice cream sundae sign.
Lastly JoAnna had a big backdrop printed for the big day.
Happy happy birthday Julianna!!
For his first birthday, Kaius' mommy, Breana fell in love with the dinosaur invitation I created for Charlee (I'll get the post up someday!), so we changed it to go with the color scheme she had in mind and I love how it turned out.
Breana cut out paper hats in orange, blue, and lime green for the dinosaur on the invitations, and then cut out "bite marks" with a scalloped circle paper punch. I LOVE this little detail.
In addition to the birthday invitations, we also created a pennant banner that had the same faux chalkboard background. It said "Happy 1st Birthday Kaiusaurus Rex."
I also made a few signs for the food table. I think the Sweetivore sign is my favorite.
Many thanks to Breana for sharing a couple of photos from the party with me. All too often, I create such FUN items for a party or wedding and I never get to see how they looked. I'm so grateful for clients who remember to share them with me. Happy birthday Kaius!
Smith's mommy, Jessica wanted to throw a truck-themed party for his second birthday and I was more than happy to do what I could to show off a few of his favorite trucks. At the time, his favorites were garbage trucks, construction trucks, and monster trucks, so I did my best to create an invitation that included all of them. I love how it turned out!
The text "I like big trucks and I cannot lie" was printed onto some plastic cups that Jessica saw online and it's what inspired her to do the truck theme for his birthday. So of course we had to use it on the invitations.
For the party, we also created a custom cupcake toppers. I absolutely LOVE the dump trucks holding snacks!
We also pennant banner for the wall.
Lastly, we made a simple thank you card that Jessica printed as folded cards so she could add a handwritten message inside.
Happy happy birthday Smith!!
Emily and Nathan's birthdays are only a month apart, so with Nathan's blessing, their mom, Cari planned a joint birthday party for them at a local children's science museum. This is the invitation I created for the big day:
Anyone catch the Back to the Future reference at the top??
This invitation was such fun to work on and I hope the party was a blast. Happy birthday to you both!
Stella's mommy, Rachel wanted to do a fun mermaid theme for her 2nd birthday and I was thrilled to be able to create some fun items for the party. She went with a color scheme that included magenta, orange, and aqua.
I created a super simple favor tag.
Cupcake toppers were simple and Rachel used a scalloped circle punch with them.
A simple pennant banner finished things off.
Happy birthday Stella! I hope your party was a blast!
