RED Hot Bridal Shower

Our good friends Sarah and Joel are tying the knot!! With the help of our friend Kreena, we threw Sarah a "Red Hot" bridal shower to help celebrate and to get the couple ready for domestic bliss! :)

The invitation

Chocolate cupcakes with a cherry on top!

The "Sarah Spritzer"...champagne and cranberry juice...delish!!

Silverware tied in red scroll napkins to match the invites.

The favors...our gk cutout cookies in the shape of a heart with red sprinkles (sorry no picture of the actual cookies).

Guests were thanked for writing words of advice for Sarah and Joel - the advice cards will go into a scrapbook we are making for Sarah with pictures and other keepsakes from the shower.

Gwen's "Wild & Crafty" Baby Shower

Gwen is about to become a mommy!!! Of course there had to be a party! And of course it had to involve arts and crafts! :) Our friends Kreena, Sarah, and I (Katherine) threw the mom-to-be a baby shower where all the guests made scrapbook pages to go into Baby's memory book.

The book turned out AMAZING and I have to give a special shout out to one of our dedicated followers Megan. Unfortunately, Megan couldn't make it to the shower, but she mailed her scrapbook pages so they could be added to the book. They were absolutely incredible and definitely set the bar for our scrapbooking party!

Here are some pictures from the shower...

The invites

Cupcakes

Baby-tini (non-alcoholic, of course) :)

Candies served in baby bowls - given to Mommy after the shower.

Pasta served in orange and green bell peppers to match the color theme!

The favors...animal crackers to thank the guests for getting WILD and crafty with Gwen.

"First came love, then came marriage, soon there will be a baby in the carriage!!!"

Katherine's cousin, Katie, is having a baby in January!! Here are the pictures of the invitations we made for her baby shower as well as the cut-out cookies decorated to look like the carriage on the invites. Katie's baby shower was great - can't wait to find out if the baby is a boy or a girl!!!

The fabric "carriages" were machine sewed onto the cardstock and buttons were glued on for the "wheels."

Once again - our gk cut-out cookies made the flight down south. We only had 1 cookie break on the trip to New Orleans!

Guests took home cookies as favors - tags were attached to the ribbon with the boy and girl names picked out for the baby!

Blue & Green Baby Shower!

Our friends Seth & Kelly are getting ready to welcome their new baby boy, so we threw a couples shower to get them ready!

The invites....

Backyard decor, which doubled as our gift to the mommy and daddy!

Hand-stamped napkins:)

Centerpieces - the flowers were cut from Gwen's front yard!!

White and chocolate cupcakes topped with our miniature cut-out cookies in 4 different animal shapes - lions, zebras, giraffes, and elephants "oh my!!"

The favors - clear boxes filled with M&Ms and our miniature cut-out cookies

Baby Boy Shower Invites!!

We made these diaper shower invites for one of Katherine's co-workers. The invitation wording was printed in a light brown on white cardstock, which slid out of the hand-made blue "diaper." The invites were tied with a blue and brown polka-dot ribbon and personalized with guests names!

Amie's Wedding Shower

Gwen was the party planner for her future sister-in-law's bridal shower on May 2nd. Guests gave Amie wedding advice by completing the phrase: "The key to a happy marriage is..." Keychains and candies were party favors. Here are some pictures from the party...
