Kaytlin
Wow! The first of two events has FINALLY arrived. Thank you for your patience while I have been preparing for my daughter’s birthday. Kayltin turns 8 today. Her party is tomorrow. She wanted a sleep over so bad. So we came to a compromise. A half sleep over. The kids come in PJ’s and bring pillow. They will do all the fun stuff but go home after to sleep. We are having pizza delivered and playing games like twister. We can’t forget dress up since the theme is princess. But last and not least a pillow fight. With the economy the way it is I had to budget very carefully. I made pretty much everything from my overflow of craft stuff. Her whole party was for 12 girls came in under one hundred dollars (Yes I had that much overflow and did not even make a dent).
I made flower head pieces and wands. I got the idea from the wedding I have been working on (the other event). For the goody basket I made dangle bracelets and matching necklaces (I believe they are pretty cool since my son even wanted one, but not in a girly color). Plus I put together a mini princess coloring book. I had bought boxes of crayons during the great back to school sales for 19 cents. I even decorated small bottles of bubbles with ribbon and flowers like the head pieces.
I will update you about how the party went and will post pictures of the beautiful princess I except to see.
Next week is the Wedding. Look for more on that. Have a great weekend.
Today I’m going to review the brand new Creative Memories Tag Maker! It’s a handful, but the tag size is a generous 2” (w) x 3” (h), which makes it perfect as both a traditional scrapbooking and general utility tool. The tags can be made with or without the hole, and the unit retails for 26.50 USD from a Creative Memories consultant.
