My daughters fifth birthday is this week and here is the invitation I designed for her Strawberry Shortcake themed party. The invite is shaped like Custard, Strawberry Shortcake’s cat. I took a photo of the coloring book I used to help me design it on the bottom. Not everyone knows who custard is but my SIL and I had already done a strawberry shaped invite here. I’m not the type of person to do things the easy way so I designed something new. I think it took a total of 4 cartridges pieced together in Design Studio to make. Her party is tomorrow and I am nowhere near ready. I better get to it!

Shark party invites I designed for a customer who has been with me since the beginning. It’s been three years now I’ve been designing and making invitations. Where does the time go? Thanks for sticking with me Jen!

Today I have one sad little photo of a bag of treats I snap while running out the door. I seem to always be running late. That “always” isn’t an exaggerating either.

The sentiment is from High Hopes and the watermelon cuts are from Simply Charmed (Cricut cartridge).

A couple of St. Patties Day treats I made for my family. This one I gave my husband. Don’t worry, along with the wanna be chocolate coins he also got Rolo’s and donuts. The coins just worked the best. I searched many stores for the perfect rainbow ribbon and finally found it by the yard at Joanns (we are getting one closer to me soon, woot woot!!). I used Simply Charmed and Paper Doll Dress Up.

Here are the treat bags I made for my kids. I was glad I didn’t put more candy in the bags since they downed all of them in two seconds flat. Silly kids. I used Simply Charmed and Alphalicious on these. I channeled my inner Mondo (for those of you who watch Project Runway) and used a lot of patterns on these.

Also a big thank you to Brenda of Friends Craftin’ with Friends for awarding me this fab blog award. My first blog award on this site! I’m feeling pretty loved.You’ll have to forgive me for not following the rules on this one. I have invitation orders coming out my nose and need to get to work. Thanks Brenda! Nice to know someone is looking in on me.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

For my card I used Cricut cartridge Campin Critters. It’s quickly becoming one of my favorite cartridges. So many cute cuts! I’m sure it will get more than its fair share of use just like Create a Critter. Stay tuned for more campin’ fun.
