Mickey Mouse goodies

Sorry this is a long post! Finally done with everything I think. I've been quite busy the past couple of weeks! Can you tell? Made all of this for my youngest granddaughter who just turned 1 year old. Her party is this weekend so I had to hurry up and finish everything. Posted her invitations earlier and the tablets that I did to include in their goodie bags.

Decided to make these little favors at last minute but only did 50 since thats all the red paper I had on hand and it took some time to make. She loves Mickey Mouse so luckily I found the punch a while back and wanted to make something so I could use it. Turned out really cute!

These are the centerpieces for the tables. Had to cover the labels on the containers which I almost forgot about it. Found a cute picture of her on her moms facebook photo album and used it for the label. Love it!

Last but not least all the goodie bags for the kids. I sewed 55 of these bags for the little boys and girls. I could not find Mickey or Minnie mouse fabric to make the bags and they decided to go with this print which I think is cute. I chose the pink for the girls and the brown for the boys. As I sewed them I took them to work so I could use my lunch time to insert the drawstrings in them. My friends at work also helped me after we ate lunch. I'm so thankful that they love doing these things too and helped me out. There is 1 more thing that I totally forgot and need to think of something quick. The envelope box! My son asked me if I could make it and I said yes but with everything else on my mind I forgot. Well it will have to be something simple since I am running out of time. Thank you all for stopping by to check out my creations! Your support and comments sure mean alot and keeps me going. Thanks again!

Still working on my craft room renovations and hopefully I will be able to post some pictures when its done. Have a Great Day!

Birthday Card and favor bags

Of course this is last minute for me again in making this birthday card. I didn't get the chance to make a birthday card or go to the store and buy one so I decided to make a quick one for the party we were going to. I had only 1 hour so I had to think fast. I wanted to make it really simple and since I rushed my coloring wasn't too great either. You can't really see it since I shrunk the pictures. Love the cupcake border and finally got the chance to use it for this card.

This next picture is a bunch of favor bags for a group of crafters that I will be spending my Saturday morning with. This of course was also last minute too, so I started and finished last night. I wasn't really sure what I wanted to make but came up with this quick one and was able to finish it in time. Thanks for stopping by today and Have a Great Weekend!

Koala giraffe Milk carton favors

Here is another version of the milk carton favors. Since my niece likes giraffes she chose this Koala Giraffe instead. It turned out really cute and it matches some stuff that she had already gotten from her first baby shower. Ok now to get started in making the rest. Hopefully I'll only need to make about 60 this time. At least this one is a bit easier than the booties.

I wanted to show you the picture of the bin she received that I wanted to try and match it. It turned out pretty good I think. Hope you all have a nice weekend and Have a Great Day!

Baby Booties

I was able to get a picture of the booties that I made for my nieces baby shower from a friend who still had it on her desk. She didn't open it yet so I was lucky that she let me take the picture. The pattern is actually a girls bootie with the front opening and a strap to go over the foot. I had to alter the pattern to make it for a boy so he could have shoe laces. Since my niece likes stars and giraffes I also added the star to the front of the bootie and the giraffe on the label. I thought I was going to only make about 30 in the beginning and as the week went by and everyone RSVP'd it turned out being about 85 co-workers. Wow that was alot of work! It was fun though and so worth it. I now am working on another one for her for a June shower. She'll be overwhelmed with baby stuff. Great!
My next challenge is favors for my granddaughter who will be making 1 year old at the end of July. I better get on the ball thinking of something. I know her theme will be Disney - Mickey Mouse so it shouldnt be too bad. But knowing me it will probably be last minute and I'll stress on it. Anyway Thanks for stopping by today and Have a Great Memorial Day weekend!!

Baby shower favors

Working on some baby shower favors for my niece. Just got done making 85 boy booties and guess what I forgot to take a picture. Anyway this is for another shower and not as time consuming as the booties. Hope she likes them... I have not done much paper crafting lately but hope to keep up again... Thanks for stopping to check it out and Have A Great Day!

Favor bags!!

I'm on a roll this week!! Worked on a couple projects this week and continue to keep the mojo going. Made this favor bag as a sample to show for ideas for a party. I'm also working on another project making 215 invitations for a Year End Party at work. Thank goodness we have a team of crafty helpers putting this all together! The theme is "Mardi Gras" so the colors are fabulous! I will post pics of them when they are all done. We got at least 2-1/2" months to be done with it.

The measurements for this bag is 3-1/2" wide, 4-1/2" tall and 2" deep.

Happy Hump Day!!
