It's a Spa-aaah party!

I had the best invites to make to start off 2014! Ella is one lucky little girl... she is having a spa party for her and her closest BFFs. Take a look at the beautiful handmade spa mask invites I put together for her. The envelopes are lined with paper specially printed to match the colors. Teal, pink, girly and fun! What do you think? ;)

 

Anthony’s Mickey Mouse Clubhouse 1st Birthday!

I’ll come out with it… I’m a bit in love with a Mouse. Mickey Mouse! When Mommy Luly came to me and said that Anthony’s 1^st birthday would be Mickey themed I was immediately THRILLED! Yellow, red and black would be the colors. No problem! I took a black Mickey head cutout, added the signature “little red shorts” pocket to the front {complete with real white buttons!} and tucked inside the pocket was a circular card with the party info. Finished off with bright yellow envelopes, these invites brightened all the guests’ mailboxes! Happy 1^st birthday to Anthony!

 

Also handmade for the birthday boy was this awesome Mickey head cutout banner! The party was so fun... :)

A Rustic Royal Affair {A Tangled Inspired 4th Birthday} for Emily

I LOVE children’s birthday parties because they give me a chance to go wild! When Ashley of Sole Luxe Events met with me to plan Emily’s 4th birthday I couldn’t wait to get started! We were planning a Rapunzel/Tangled inspired birthday but with a TWIST.

Ashley is famous for her “twists”… she came up with “A Rustic Royal Affair”. This event was truly something else… so much so that Hostess with the Mostess blogged about it!

As told by Ashley on HWTM’s blog: “As invitations are the very first thing guests see, I wanted them to be royal but with a rustic feel. Monica of Le Petit Papier helped me create just that with our scroll invite on an antique designed kraft paper tied with a yellow Rapunzel braid with two little purple bows at the end. SO cute & royal!”

 
Here are the invites!

The dessert station for the party was the centerpiece of the event, complete with purple glittery tent cards with miniature braids to match the invites and to stay in theme. It was most definitely a “royal rustic affair” fit for a Princess!

Leila’s Snow White 1st Birthday

Little Leila is too adorable for words so obviously her birthday party had to be just as adorable! Mommy Vanessa {of Captured by V & Co.} came up with a new twist to the old Snow White idea. Beautiful folding cards finished with red glittery ribbon and a flower in the center were sure to wow guests as they took them out of the envelopes! The royal blue invites opened up to reveal a new version of Snow White. This little character was so cute…it was definitely a great alternative to the original. Happy Birthday Leila!!
