Project Birthday Party- Framed Pictures


So I found this cute idea online. Pull pictures off the American Girl website and print them out. Frame them in cheap Walmart 95 cent frames, to set up around the food table. These were easy and just a little touch that helps add to the theme.



Maybe I should let some of the girls take this home as door prizes?? I could make tickets and raffle them off?? OH what do you think?? Thanks for stopping by!

Project Birthday Party- Cupcake Name Tags DONE

After adding girls and changing the paper because I ran out of the shinny cream these are done. Everyone will have a name label for there cupcake! Super fun to make with my cricut!!

I think there are about 20 people coming!

Project Birthday Party- Name Bracelets with Matching Doll Bracelets

This task I will not lye was NO FUN!! I bought a big tub of beads to get the most for my money.


This turned into a huge ordeal!! I had to dump the whole thing out sort all the letter beads into a different container and then find matching size and shapes for each girl and name. If I ever do this again, I would buy letter beads and nothing but letter beads to make it easier on myself. Live and learn! They turned out cute and I found every girl and dolls name so I am thankful I didn’t have to buy more beads!!


I will post pictures the day of the party so you can see these on the girls and dolls!

Progect Birthday Party- Pinwheels


Ok these have been really fun today with my cricut! I love cutting for squares perfect with hitting buttons. Best way for me that can’t cut straight to save my life!! Rulers and rotary cutters are a very good friend of mine. (Is it weird that all my friends seem to be tools??) So I have made some cute little doll pinwheels which were much easier then the bigger ones by the way. But with a cute rhinestone they turned out just darling that I made four more then I needed!! Oops I think I had a lot of fun with this project!! I only have memory book prep and girl party hats and I am done with Prep!! Next will be stuff the day before like food and set up!! Oh I am super excited!!

Project Birthday Party- Doll Hats

This project was going to be one the easier ones... that was my first thought. So after some looking and humming to my Glee Pandora station playing in the back ground I decided on a triangle to make my doll hats. NO GO!! So I think to myself go a little bigger and it will fit the doll. So off to the Cricut I go and I cut a little bigger. Ugh again a NO GO!! So I think the good thought and turn to old trusty Google. Someone else in this world has had to have made a doll party hat before right?? RIGHT!!! I found a great template and make the cutest doll hats!! Thank you http://www.make-it-do.com/make-it/doll-sized-party-hat-template/. This template is the reason these cute doll hats were made, so to them I again say THANK YOU!!


 Kanani with her party hat on!! Sorry Kanani parties not for another two weeks. hehe
I love how they turned out. The dolls will be ready to party is style!!
