Happy Groundhog's Day! hoping for good news from Punxsutawney Phil this year!
I'm back today with a few of the birthday projects I created for Me & My Big Ideas. Their products are so bright and colorful - perfect for a celebration. First up is a cake I created... started with an inexpensive styrofoam cake round from a local cake supply store. Covered it with paper, gathered ribbon, handmade paper flowers, die cut flourishes, and a custom banner... lots of fun to make!
And every party needs an invitation!
and favors... these were made with my Silhouette and would be easy and inexpensive to reproduce (if you have an electronic die cutting machine)... otherwise a bit more time consuming, but still not too difficult. An easier option is to cover paper towel rolls with patterned paper.
I love to add custom touches to birthday parties... of course, these days my 12, 15, and 17 year-old would die if I tried to hand out any fancy party favors... or even sent a handmade invitation... so for the time being, my birthday paper crafting is somewhat limited to design work projects.
Hope you are able to put these ideas to better use!
