Mickey Mouse Birthday Party July 21, 2011

Today I have photos of a Mickey Mouse birthday party! I had so much fun designing this collection with Courtney for her gorgeous two year old son, Luke. The family had been to Disney World not long before his birthday… what better way to continue the magic than a Mickey party?

Courtney wanted red, white and black color scheme with the classic Mickey Mouse icon. She asked for large polka dots as well as stripes and argyle. Everything came together beautifully- well done Courtney!

I love that she used Mickey Mouse ice cubes to keep the water chilled. These reusable ‘cubes’ can be purchased at the Disney store or in their online store, here.

Here are the favors that she gave out. Every kid loves bubbles so these Mickey Mouse bottles of bubbles are perfect and of course, we made a matching wrapper so that they’d coordinate with the rest of the party pieces. I also adore the marshmallow treats that were shaped like the classic Mickey Mouse icon. Check out my blog post on how to make these for your next party.

And here is a photo of the birthday boy! Isn’t he gorgeous? I love the outfit that Courtney made for him and the mouse ears are perfect. You can totally tell that he had a blast at his party.

Thank you Courtney for sharing photos of Luke’s party with us!

Party “Welcome” Door Signs March 29, 2011

I am so happy to have mailed off some fun party decorations and invites to Tisha this morning! She is having a joint birthday party with her husband. In fact their wedding anniversary’s sandwiched in between the two birthdays so they really do have a lot to celebrate! I enjoyed working with her on the invites and am thrilled with the final product. The invites are 5 inches by 7 inches and have a bright white card stock overlay. The overlay is tied to the card with about 8 inches of grosgrain ribbon which are cut on a diagonal. I printed their return address on the envelopes so all she has to do is address them.

Invites

The invites match the Happy Birthday banner which I had listed in my Etsy shop. I do have more of this amazing card stock so keep an eye on my shop… I may just have to make another one of these. I love that the colors are bright. Also, some of the paper in this collection has glitter, too.

As a special treat for the birthday gal (and guy!), I made a welcome door sign for them to hang on their front door. This is a fun way to create a party atmosphere from the moment people enter the house.

I really like making welcome signs for parties. I think they are really fun and add  a nice touch. I sell print your own door signs in my Etsy store. The one below is part of the sailboat collection. I love making party collections and think it is really fun to have matching invites, cupcake toppers, party circles, etc.
