Over the Moon Card and Gift Bag!

Posted on November 5, 2011 by apieceoflifespie

 

I decided to enter this project into a challenge of a new blog, My Creative Time,  I  just stumbled upon for her Throw Back Thursday Challenge of making a kid friendly project.  I could not believe my good fortune that I just did the project so I could add it to her challenge.  I am super happy I found another great blog forum with another great design team full of neat and creative ideas!

This is the matching bag and card I made to go along with a banner I made for a friend’s little boy! My friend was super happy with it all and we had a great time at the party… it was at a local Children’s Museum that I never knew about.  It is totally community funded (no government help) and it was AMAZING! We will be signing up for an annual membership.

Fly Me to the Moon Birthday Banner!

Posted on November 4, 2011 by apieceoflifespie

 

I got the joy of making another boy birthday banner for this weekend!  I was literally over the moon to do this project, since I have been antsy to use my new “B is for Boy” Cricut Lite cartridge.   His theme is “Rockets”. 

I found some cute scrapbook paper at Michael’s and used coordinating color card stock to pull it all together.  Tonight I think I may film another “Easy as Pie” videos on the card and gift bag I am going to make to go along with it.

I had so much fun making this banner, especially since the hubs took the girls out last night to meet up with parents who are in town.  I had three hours of Cricut fun that did not mean I had to be up till all hours in the morning to do it! 🙂
