Noah's Ark Party Favors Made with Cricut

Hello,

Finally I can share with you these amazing Noah's Ark Favors. My friend needed some party favors for her BFF's Babyshower and asked me to create something special. So she gave me a picture of her theme and so I went ahead and recreated the boats. I used my cricut to cut most of the elements and cut the roofs by hand. I hope you will enjoy... And check back soon to see some of the creations for an Alice in Wonderland Babyshower I will be doing. I will be posting some sneak peeks throughout the next couple of days.

Supplies Used
Cricut Expression
TBBM - Bottom of boat
CC - Animals
Potpourri - Anchor
Raffia
Wave punch for bottom of boats

Chic & Sassy!!!! Design

Hello,
Today I want to share with you a special project I have been working on and the reason for my lack of post. As most of you know I am a part time Party Planner and that is a passion I truly love. I have taken my love for cardmaking, scrapbooking and altered items and combined them into my party planning. I have been super busy putting together party packs, creating party favors for clients, cards for individuals and also preparing for the opening of my ETSY store that will carry alot of the designs you will be seeing on this site. I created this special table in honor of my new project. All desserts where done by me. Hope you enjoy and please feel free to leave a comment I always love to hear what everyone thinks.

CANDY TABLES & PARTY FAVORS

Hello,

Sorry it's been a while since I last posted. This month has been quite busy between celebrate my birthday and the 4 of July all together. Also I got an order for party favors Noah's Ark that I had to complete and working at my job it's been pretty busy.

For those who not aware I am a part time party planner. I love doing parties and creating scenes and setting the moods. I think it truly is the one thing I am passionate about and enjoy doing. For me planning a party is like being in a movie. I can create whatever mood or setting a client wants and always making sure that when they step into the party they are stepping into my vision and there own. So today I wanted to share with you a very special party. It is my cousin's baby shower this was from last year but I loved planing this shower and it turned out amazing. This shower was the first time I had done a full party by myself. I had done party favors and decorations before but never and entire party. I also have worked lots of parties with other event planners so I had that experience. The theme was lady bugs and back then they weren't and still aren't a very popular theme so I really had to design this from scratch. We decided the colors first and then went to work. It was done in my cousin's back yard so the Garden element was present. I also incorporated every color she wanted down to the flowers. I created a candy table complete with chocolate fountain and all kinds of fruit. I had ladybug cookies made and even chocolate ladybugs lolipops. In the end it was magical she enjoyed it and that is what matters.

So I included some pictures so you can enjoy and get some inspiration. I hope you will enjoy. If you would like to know more about AIH's party planning tips and ideas just email me @ adventuresinheels@gmail.com.

Journal & 3x3 Matching Note Cards

Good Morning,

So this week I submitted a project to become design team member.  I didn't make the team but I am happy for the lucky ladies who made the design team congratulations. I couldn't share this project with you till today.

Today's project is an altered journal book and 3x3 matching note cards.
I bought this journal for about $1 ad decided to recover he front and back of the journal. I also cut a flower and monogrammed the front of the book to match the notecards.

The notecards where cut at 3x3 and also monogrammed to match the journal.



Hope you enjoy!
Also check back this week I had a special requet to make a card for a someone who loves horses and also enjoys the sport of "DRESSAGE" . I created a really cool card and can't wait to share. ALSO remember 50 followers and a giveaway.

Live LOVE Laugh
