Crafting Away

Over the last 24 hours I have been cutting out gobs and gobs of circles.  I am now up to 250 black 4" circles.  I can't wait to show you the projects that I will be doing with these circles.  Hoping by Monday I will be able to at least post one project using some of these circles.

Mickey Birthday Invite

Maddie and Zack are going to be 3 year olds in 2 weeks.  Scarey huh?  I have a VERY small budget for decorating this party because we have spent most of our budget on a bounce house that we are renting for their birthday.  So...first up is invitations.  I have spent $35 on a Mickey Cricut Cartridge which I will be using throughout all the party decor.  I immediately put it to use on our birthday invites.  I had a ton of paper already...all that was needed is black and red paper.  The only additional purchase I made was for buttons.  I spent $2 for a huge bag of white buttons.  I hand made about 30 invites.  Here is my final product.  I think they were a hit!

Sincerest Apologies

I have been a TERRIBLE blogger.  I am so sorry.  It has been one insane summer, but I am now in full birthday party planning mode for Maddie and Zack.  I will be sharing LOTS of fun DIY party things, because this party will be under an extremely tight budget!  So be on the lookout!
