I love this one!! I couldn't fit in the colored tile floor:( I love the girls high heals and the super sparkly disco ball!

Tricky Custom Order Request

Jungle Monkey Scrapbook Page

Yeah!! I finally finished it!! I got the idea for this page from the invitations, thank you cards, cupcake toppers and party set I have listed in the shop. I love it - and am having a really hard time not keeping it for myself!

Just Listed

Some more new listings!! I orginally made these invitations for my daughters birthday party and I fell in love with them. The Jungle monkey invitations have been my biggest seller so far, so I decided to expand the collection with coordinating cupcake toppers, thank you cards and party set. I just couldn't end it there - I have a Jungle Monkey Premade Scrapbook page set coming tomorrow!!

FREE SHIPPING SALE!!

Free shipping on everything in the shop this weekend!! Starts tomorrow and runs until Sunday! I have a bunch of new items for sale and more to come!

NEW STUFF IN THE SHOP!

A few more new things add to the shop. I love the Pirate Treasure Invite! I think this is my new favorite. No, maybe my favorite is the new Princess Castle invite - Oh, I love them both and can't decide!!! I will definately have some matching Thank You's, cupcake toppers and party sets coming soon!

I made this Circus invite as a proof for someone and I think it turned out pretty cute! I love the primary color polka dots!




I also started adding the coordinating cupcake toppers, thank you's and party sets to the invitations already listed in the shop. I love the pineapples!!!

NEW 'POP-UP' BIRTHDAY GIFT CARD HOLDER!

I made one of these cards for my father-in-law for his birthday. I personally think that it is super cute! However, it has to be given with a slightly larger envelope than the ones that fit 4x51/2 cards, because of it's thickness. Hope you like it!

THE NEW PIRATE PRINCESS STUFF!!!

I love these! I struggled with the glitter though, I was originally going to go with the black diamond, but it just wasn't enough glitter, then I tried the ever famous stardust - too much glitter. My daughter suggested pink. They turned out great - go magenta!! I received a couple of custom orders this week, so I will be working on those, but after that - I'm thinking about a Pirate theme set, maybe a ship with a map behind it - who knows!!
