Gender Reveal Party – Little Man or Little Lady?

Jennifer — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 00:51:00 +0000

We found out in November that I was pregnant. We hadn’t planned on having a gender reveal party, but I couldn’t resist! We just invited immediate family and requested no gifts.

Here’s the invitation we sent. You can purchase the invitation here.

When the family arrived they got a bow or a mustache, depending on whether they thought it was a boy or girl. I thought I’d give them a chance to make at slightly educated guess and had a list of the old wives tales and what they predicted. Funny enough, based on the ones I did, it was slightly in favor of a boy.

I cut the mustaches from felt and hot glued a pin on the back. The ribbon was just tied and a pin glued on the back.

The food served were the foods I have been craving (plus pizza).

My mom also made cute little baby feet jello jigglers.

I found the molds for the mustache and bow on Amazon.

The straws are from Isakay Boutique on Etsy. If you are looking for party supplies, I definitely recommend her!

I found the lanterns via Pinterest. You can find the tutorial here. They were filled with confetti. When it was time for the big reveal, the boys each pulled a string on a lantern to release the confetti.

The boys were more concerned with the confetti than anything else. Actually, we had told the boys the night before. Here’s how we told them…

This past weekend we had a monster birthday party for the boys. I’m still sorting through all the photos, hoping to have that done tomorrow. For the invites, I use a tri-fold 5×5 design.

Monster invites can be found in my shop.

WOW! Has it really been nearly 6 months since my last post?! I had planned on taking a small break…just not 6 months! Oh well.

The monster party planning is in full swing. Here’s an inspiration board I put together in the very beginning of the planning.

With the 4th of July just around the corner, I have been looking for ideas for entertaining. Here are a few that stood out.

Rock N Roll Birthday Invitation

Jennifer — Fri, 21 May 2010 13:21:12 +0000

I’ve been wanting to add a Rock N Roll invitation to the shop for awhile. This would also be great for a baby shower!

It can also be done with a photo. I added some cool effects to this picture, but it can be done without.

Bug Party Food

Jennifer — Mon, 17 May 2010 19:31:59 +0000

It seems like just yesterday I was planning the airplane and monkey parties. I think I started planning the bug party just days after the monkey party. Of course, the tone of the party started with the invitations.
Because I have so many details I want to share, I am going to break the party up into several posts. Let’s start with the food. Silverware was wrapped around different bug fact cards. They were perfect!

In keeping with the bug theme, all food served was some sort of bug. Besides what is pictured below, we also served ‘slugs’ or sweet pickles, and ‘wing’ or potato chips.

We made fruit and vegetable arrangements that doubled as part of the decorations on the tables.

A party isn’t complete with candy, right? Treats included bug graham crackers and various gummy bugs and worms.

Inspiration from Cookie Mondays

{Real Parties} Sprinkle Baby Shower

Jennifer — Fri, 14 May 2010 20:38:43 +0000

I love when my customers change up my designs. Kathryn used my Ice Cream Cone Invitation to set the stage for a faboulous “sprinkle” for a friend. The colors of the invitation and coordinating items can be modified to work for a boy too!

Along with the invitation, I also created a matching sticker and tent card, both shown below.
