LOVE BUG!

A friend of mine from college (The University of Dayton- Go Flyers!) has a baby girl named Natalie too! :) She is throwing her little "love bug" a lady bug themed 1st birthday party and she thought of us to help her make the party SUPER cute! :)

So she asked for a birthday banner, a high chair banner and a centerpiece!

Here is the banner! We used red and white and black and white designed paper and of course popped the letters off with 3D foam squares. We also created this adorable lady bug just for little miss Natalie! :) We  then finished it off with white tulle and red ribbon. SO CUTE!

Here is a close up of the letters popped off!

Since Dana calls her baby girl "love bug" we added a heart for the "1st"

Here is the high chair banner, which is similar to the birthday banner, except it has an extra layer of scallops which are all popped off for a super 3D look!

A surprise 30th birthday party!

A friend of mine was throwing her husband a surprise 30th birthday party and asked if we could help her decorate!  The party was being held at a  Japanese style Karaoke Bar  (meaning you get your own private room) so her parameters for us to work with were: Gold, black, Japanese and music. So we went to work!

First we made these super cute party hats! It is actually really hard to find black party hats, so we MADE them from scratch! :)

Next she asked us to make some microphone covers so that all of the funny singing pictures that were taken that night would include a special reminder that it was his 30th!

Next up was a personalized birthday centerpiece! I included cranes folded from the same musical note paper that we used for the microphone holders! And a kanji that means "longevity"

Finally the birthday banner! We incorporated a different shape since this is an adult party and for a MAN so I made sure that my husband agreed that it wasn't too girly :-p

We shadowed the letters with a patterned paper and popped the letters!

The Birthday Boy! The surprise party was a complete success! :)
