Aloha!

Today I have a little card to show you that I made for Demi's BFF at school...

 

 

Is this the sweetest image? Cardstock colours I used were Crumb Cake, Whisper White and Pretty in Pink. The image was coloured using SU markers. The SU sentiment is from Friendly Phrases.

That's it. Just a quick one today.

Take care.
Andrea :)

Mia's 10th Birthday Rock Pool Party

As promised, I'm back today to show you photos of the projects from Mia's party!

Firstly, we have the invitations...

 

The invitations featured different images from a stamp set of girls wearing swimmers, coloured in with SU inks and an Aqua Painter on watercolour paper. Cardstock colours used were Whisper White, Real Red and Bashful Blue (embossed with a bubble embossing folder). The little flowers were made using a punch from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack. The invites were presented in a clear cellophane bag instead of an envelope to showcase the invitation, and embellished with red ribbon, a personalised name tag punched with the Jewellery Tag, and a pewter charm of a bikini. Mia loved them and so did the recipients!

Next up are the party bags...

The tags were cut from Bashful Blue cardstock using the Two Tags die and the flower was made using five scallop circles punched using the Scallop Circle Punch.

I also used these tags for the lolly bar...

The lolly bar noodle boxes, personalised with name tags made out of the Scallop Circle Punch and a circle punch...

 

Paper straws personalised using the small Scallop Circle punch and small circle punch...

 

The pinata...

 

 

 Paper lantern and pom pom decorations...

The rock pool cale and cupcakes that I made...

And finally... a photo of the birthday girl herself, with her underwater camera and onsie pyjamas...

 

Happy Birthday, gorgeous girl! And I'll be doing it all exactly the same in a couple of weeks for my baby girl's party, as she wants everything just like her big sis. :)

Take care,
Andrea

My Big Girls Turns 10!

I can't believe that it was ten years ago that I gave birth to a gorgeous, flawless little baby whom we named Mia.

Mia has grown so much over these last ten years, becoming a beautiful, happy, intelligent, witty and loving girl. We feel so blessed to call her our daughter.

This is the card I made for her...

The card features a girl holding a camera which is so appropriate since we gave Mia an underwater camera.

Colours used were Crumb Cake, Pretty in Pink, Whisper White and glitter paper. The image was coloured with Stampin' Up! markers and the camera lens and glasses were accentuated with lossy Accents. The sentiment is from Happiest Birthday Wishes. The little flowers were created with one of the punches from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack and embellished with adhesive rhinestones.

Be sure to visit here again real soon for photos of her birthday invitations and other projects from her party!
