Ok, ok. I Know It's Been A While...

I May Have Needed a Small Reprieve...

So I know, its been a while.  Apparently I needed a little break.  I was feeling a little stressed coming up with new posts, and quite frankly this shouldn't be stressful, it should be fun, light, and exciting. But I have stuff to share so stay tuned.

There have been several activities in the house since I last posted...

My sister came and visited with me for about 10 days, there was Charly's birthday party, fabulous spring weather, and who knows what else.  You know, just life.

Anyway, I am back and ready with a few new ideas.  I am going to be writing a couple posts today and tomorrow and we will be back on track for sure for next week.  I promise!

I have a few new crafts to share and I am pretty excited!  Wondering about the random pictures?  Just a little sneak peak of what we have coming up.

Random now, I know but wait, your going to LOVE them!

There you have it, see I promise, new posts coming soon!

Thanks for stopping by everyone, come back and visit us again soon,

Mad Hatter Tea Party Invitations

DIY Tea Party Invitations

So I finally started on Charly's birthday party invitations. I am so excited for this theme. I think you will love it too!  As you will be able to infer from the invitations, we are having  a tea party!!!!!!  Yeah!  So here is how I made them, they were pretty easy to put together and really came out nice I think.  There are a couple steps, which I am not that into most of the time, but they were not very time consuming at all, which is what I fear most with multiple steps...

All you are going to need, is your favorite scrapbook paper, a print out of your information, a glue stick and some string.

Anyway, I started with these cut outs to make little books of sorts.

Here are the little information pages I printed out.  I got online and found a couple of images and sayings I liked and typed them up, printed and cut them out.  They fit perfectly on the pages.

I glued on the information pages, one to the front and one to the back.

Cut a few small squares then cut diagonal on the corners to make it look like the tea tabs on top of the bags.

I poked holes in the tops of the tabs and the actual invitations ...

And finally I tied a string to both pieces. See, now it looks like a tea bag. How stinkin' cute is that, right?!?

So, I suppose you can guess we are having a tea party of sorts but wait till you see the rest of the decorations! Oh I seriously can't wait!
