I just wanted to pop in and show you some of the decor from my nieces birthday, just to give you a little something for Make Something Monday.
Today, I’m doing a little bit of celebrating with my husbands family and tomorrow my husband and I are going out, so between today and tomorrow I might just drop a line or two.
Anyway, here some of the goodies…
So this bright little number that I showed you earlier,
turned into this…
I cut all of this with my cricut and then just punched holes and strung ribbon through it. Just a tip if you own the cricut and haven’t really tried different paper. Construction paper does horrible in it. It’s constantly shredding. Stick with cardstock, like those two butterflies.
My lovely sister in law made this cute wall/door hanging.
Didn’t it turn out adorable!
and then we got together and made a couple of these…
Sorry about the messy counter, it was a party after all, with lots of kids. π and lots and lots of butterflies.
Anyway, the party was a success and the birthday girl, got lots of goodies!
Well, I gotta run, birthday lunch with my Mom!
Nice. How did you make the butterflies?
Thanx! I actually have a cricut machine and it cut them, then we just glued embroidery thread to the back of a butterfly and stuck another butterfly on the back of that one. Oh and bent the wings so that it had a 3D effect. If you don’t have a cricut, then you can just print a picture of a butterfly off of the internet and use it as a stencil.
Happy Birthday Sweetheart!
You did a great job on Lydia’s bday too. Looked amazing π
Thanx you and thank you sweetie!
