Halloween Decor and Invitations

 I had so much fun with Halloween this year. Not only did we end up having a costume party, we went all out with (my type of) Halloween decor.
I couldn't find a font I loved for the invitations so I made them by hand. Crazytown, I know. I had gotten these envelopes not knowing what we would use them for at Artco (in Rexburg). They were perfect!!!

 I had two different kinds of envelopes and ribbons.

 Food table. I borrowed some decor from Laura Black for the party.

 This painting is so perfect for Halloween. Just creepy enough. I sprayed some cattails black and they looked so great! Love the ravens always and pumpkins. Some potion bottles that Todd and Jen made.

 Love these flying bats.

 We got a little taxidermy alligator and put a fake hand inside.

 Every surface was spooky. Even in the bathroom we had some decorations.

 Front porch.

Pinata. I was so pleased with how it turned out. I like the silver and black paint. The structure was pretty difficult and we only got to hit it twice, but it looked great!!

Springtime greeting cards

 The robin is always reminds me of Springtime. I am so happy to hear and see many fat robins poking around for their breakfast in my back yard.
I had a few Thank yous I needed to write and a birthday card, so I thought I would make some Springy cards.
The leaves, eyes, wing are cut out, the rest is ripped paper. Branch is drawn.

Lydia's fairy birthday invites

 We made these little fairy invitations for Lydia's birthday party. They were little pop-up fairies.

 Lydia colored some of them and I colored others.

This is just showing how when you opened it, the fairy popped out.

Lego Party- Invitations

 I printed the info onto yellow paper, then cut the cards into minifigure heads. Then I had Liam choose what faces he wanted me to draw onto each one. The Sharpie worked great!

Liam had a Lego minifigure book with tons of Lego stickers that we used to decorate the envelopes, inside the invites, and also use to close the envelopes. There could be no doubt about the theme!

valentines

I sewed the paper heart onto the cardstock.
