I'm behind on posting...

And still have to dig up some recent designs that are on an external drive! But in the meantime, I found this ad I created for a church calendar.

Oooooooo Dramatic

This one was fun to make. I like it being spooky but also whimsical! Just perfect for a Ghost Tour and an evening of theatre! Cute party idea, I must admit! Wish I thought of it. :)

Business Card

I have many more designs I have to post but they are on an external drive, so tonight I'm just posting what's at my fingertips, so some of these are totally out of order, but nonetheless still available for you to see! :) Hoping to pull even earlier designs (but still fairly recent) soon for ya! oh and now the card :) I designed two versions of this card, a card that is just one sided, then another sample that is back and front... when printed, the chosen version was printed on high glossy stock so it looked really nice.

Safari Party

I have so many designs to post! I have been so behind, and I'm still going to be! :) Gonna post a few tonight and hopefully get back on with a few more soon! But this was for my daughter's first birthday! We had everything it mentions, even the safari ride through the..well...safari! :) All decor was jungle themed, a lot of it I made (place mats, wall decals, stand up animal silouttes, invitation, etc). The food table was part of the "waterfall" I put together with paper, tule, and netting. My sister helped make the vines that hung in the doorway as people entered into the party. The face painting was AWESOME and so were the balloon animals! While on the safari ride, everyone got to hear the "tour guide" (me) tell a few facts about each animal as we passed them. I also had a cd of animal sounds playing in each "safari jeep." When we returned it was time for "banana splits" and singing happy birthday! She loved it and ate her entire cake!

Arrrrrrr Matey! :)

Love how these turned out! The circle pirate is actually raised with pop dot glue making it 3D. I also added a touch of glitter on the crown, just to give it something a little special and more girly. :)

Train Party withTicket!

This turned out cute for someone's train party for their twin boys, complete with ticket! It worked out since I had just competed having my own son's train bday party! So I used the train design from his signs and switched out the colors.

Cooking out

This was a quick invite actually pulling from a 3D apron invitation I made a while back. Normally, I don't create the same design twice and this wasn't exactly the same but she needed something quick and she liked the apron idea. So, I just used the same apron drawing on flat card stock. It worked. :)

More train party pictures!

And I had to make family shirts! I took the train I drew from the invitation and designed shirts, Levi, The Conductor, Momma of the Conductor, Daddy of the Conductor, and the baby had I'm with the Conductor! These were simply iron-on. Oh and the location was Trackside Diner right by the railroad tracks downtown! They have all sorts of model trains inside and windows on the wall to give an illusion of traveling on a train. SO, actually the background you see here, was my idea, a little help from a local print shop and voila! I think Trackside liked it so much, they decided to keep it! :)

He loved it!



The BIG hit! Can't have a train party without a train!





These were food/table labels my aunt made. You can't tell by this photo but the train was stamped to cardstock, colored, and embossed... cut out and stuck on another cardstock with a pop-dot to be 3D.


The Baggage claim is where I had the party favors, colored candies, a shirt I made with the train I drew for the invitations, and a train whistle.


Tattoo station- train tattoos and sponges cut into trains!


Got this sign idea online from the modern train party, but sort of made it my own.



I came up with the "name train" in which I cut cardstock into squares, glued circles to them, and all the guests signed their name to a "train car" along with writing birthday wishes!
