My new craft room!

Having just moved to a new house (and more than doubling our square footage!) I received my very own room for crafting. It is so nice to have all my things in one place, all neatly organized. My dad and my husband built me this amazing table to do all my crafting on.

A Birthday Card fit for a Princess

One of my best friend's little girls turned 3 on August 19th! I made her this princess/castle birthday card. I designed it with Cricut Design Studio using George Basic Shapes. I saved the .cut file if anyone needs it. :)

Happy Birthday Kuper!!!

Birthday Party Banner

We threw my husband's step-mom a surprise birthday party on August 13th. My sister-in-law and I were in charge of decorations! Our color scheme was red, black, and silver. She made cute party hats for the tables, and I made place cards and this banner. A great time was had by all.

(Unfortunately when I arrived at the party, my camera's memory card was missing, so I don't have any pictures of the other decorations - hopefully someone does and I can share them later.)

Bachelorette Party Sash

I threw a bachelorette party for my best friend this summer. We went to Chicago for a Cub's game, stayed in a lavish hotel, and spent the evening downtown having a great time. I made Kels a custom bachelorette sash! I think she loved it and got hooted and hollered at the entire time. It was great fun!

Us at the game!

Bridal Shower - SATC Style!

I threw a Sex & the City themed Bridal Shower for my best friend this summer. We had the SATC movie soundtrack playing in the background, along with our favorite quotes from the show displayed in a slideshow format on the big screen. We had lots of yummy snacks and don't forget cosmo's!

"Kelsea <3's Jim" Banner -

I made rings from pipe cleaners, so here we all are sporting them!

 Amazing fruit display - the strawberries and green grapes were speared and inserted into a pineapple! so cute.

My sister-in-law made several cakes shaped as purses. They tasted just as great as they looked.

Chocolate-covered pretzels were a huge hit

A Louis Vuitton inspired cake!

The whole spread

Cosmo's!

Here is the shower favor table. We gave out bottle openers in the shape of a high heel pump.



Bridal Shower Invitation

My best friend just got married on August 5, 2011. She is such a girly girl and loves the TV show "SATC." I made this invitation using my cricut to set the mood! It's a little blurry, but the wording says...

Kelsea is the luckiest girl in town

She's geting married to the greatest guy around

August is coming, the bride's getting giddy,

let's shower her with gifts, a la Sex & the city!
