Star Wars

Just for fun I had to post my friend Jen's baby shower!  It was so much fun to see all of the ideas she found on line to make this shower theme PERFECT!  

Thing 1 Thing 2

Time has flown and I am just now getting around to posting this baby shower.  I hate to admit it but this shower might have been the best shower yet!!!

PINTREST FLOP:

Ya the oh so cute fuzz head cupcakes looked like this 5 minutes
 after the picture was taken.  Note to self that the frosting
melts the cotton candy.  Duh I should have realized that.
To be honest we quickly put them into the holder to take the picture. 

Giraffe Shower

I went to the most amazing shower thrown by my friend Margaret for her daughter Lauren. Between Margaret and Lauren they put together a beautiful orange and blue giraffe shower.  I just wanted to post it so that in the future I could remember all of their amazing and Pinterest inspired ideas :)

New School Planner

There is just something fun about butterflies!  After the birthday party I was inspired to use butterflies on my school planner for the year!!!  The only sad thing is 2 weeks after I made and laminated this lesson plan cover I was moved to Kindergarten.  I decided I liked my cover so much I would just have to make the "transitional" wording work for this year.  Look what happens to those who try to get ahead of the game ;(

These butterflies were placed in the flowers on the tables.  With the hydrangeas the butterflies look like they were above the clouds ;)  I loved it!!!

Pink Butterfly Party Banner

I have recently realized EVERY PARTY needs a banner!  This party was no exception!!!  I loved how they displayed the 2 banners at the party.  A banner can make a party in ANY space!

Pink Butterfly Party food Pinwheels

I love pinwheels, though these are a little small so they can be hard to work with (as I learned).  Originally these were for the dessert cupcakes.  When the favor changed to a cupcake these became the sandwich decorations (below).  They are so cute and helped to add pink to the sandwich plates!!!

Gift Note Pad

I love making these gift note pads.  It is the perfect place to write the gifts down.  No matter how busy you are you will not loose track of your tank you list with a matching note pad.

Pink Butterfly Party Food Tags

Sorry I did not have a closeup of the tag but as you can see they fit right in on the serving plates.  This picture also has many of the other items from the party.

Pink Butterfly Party Cupcake Tags

Here were the tags that were put on the cupcake favors (picture of the table below).  I love the cupcake favor, so this tag was so much fun to design knowing it was a gift tag.

Coffee My Friend

I know I have said this about the last few cards but I just love this card.  This might be my favorite stamp set EVER.  This card is an exact case off line.  I think I found it on Splitcoaststampers.  It was very easy to make.  You start with a white card and add a yellow backing.  Then I added the banner and a blue strip.  I topped the banner off with the my friend stamp.  You could add any topic here and it would be perfect.  Then to make it the best type of card ever I added the coffee cup ;)  Just like the one online I added a cute simple bow to my cup to add texture and depth to the card.

Coffee with a Touch of Starbucks

Who does not love a little bit of Starbucks in their mail box?!?  I loved this idea and thought it would be perfect as a gift card holder ;)  It is very simple but when push came to shove this is what I came up with one night.
