Princess Birthday

My little Princess turned 4 on 11/1 and we are having her birthday party this weekend. And the theme... of course is Princesses and Pink (I added some lavendar to compliment the pink, which the Princess approved)!

So far I've got the invitations and the banner finished. I got the idea for the invitations from Rea Rocerno-Francisco of QooLayFul iNviteS. She makes the cutest invitations and party favors. And she was sweet enough to share how she made her invitation so that I could make something similar.

Here is the invitation:


Details:
Sweet Treats cartridge (I hid some of the cuts on the base layer using DS)
Core'dinations cardstock
Core'dinations glitter cardstock
large sticky jewels
the party details are written on the back

Here is the banner that I made.




Details:
Sweet Treats and Once Upon A Princess cartridges
Core'dinations cardstock
silver cardstock for tiaras
patterned paper from my stash
pink shimmer tulle for skirt overlays
tiny fabric flowers
i-Rock gems on flowers and tiaras
Peachy Keen Princess faces (Love these!)
white gel pen for eyes
pink shimmer chalk for cheeks
ribbon (used hot glue to glue bows to hands)
large sticky jewels
lavendar Stickles on the edges of the letters

I got some table decorations, the cake and cupcakes, and treat favors to work on. I'll post pics when those projects are finished.

Thanks for stopping by!
