PARTY!!

My party collection......if I were to throw a party...this might be a theme I would run with.
You know I love me some Graphic45!!

A close up of the "invite"
One side of the cupcake topper
the other side....
the cupcake.....betcha want to know how I made that one don't you??  It's a FAKE one!!
and one of the treat bags.....see how tiny the little paper bag is??  The sweetest little thing. Perfect size for a small candy bar inside.  The bag could have a name written on it for a place card holder.
The larger tube of goodies is a "party popper" style goodie holder.  Fill a tulle wrapped tube with wrapped candy or goodies and tie up the ends.  Use your favorite paper and other embellishments to finish the theme off.

Do you catch a theme happening here....birthday perhaps??

Ok, so as far as the project goes, Paula and I had this idea to make a fun display of things you can do with paper that isn't cards or scrapbook pages.  We have the paper, the technology, the tools.....what else can we create with paper?  With cupcake toppers being all the rage these days, I figured that would be fun, but how to display a cupcake topper without a cupcake?  Can't use a real one, it wouldn't last.  The internet saves us again.  Paula found me a "recipe" for a fake cupcake and above is the result.  Who knew styrofoam, plaster, paint and spackle could look so tasty?

FIESTA!!

With my birthday being yesterday....the month of March is a month long FIESTA!!

Margarita Me

With this bright lime colored dot paper and the vibrant stripe on the other side, you just have to go with what works....and a margarita came to my mind :)  

Hey, it's MY birthday, and I can do what I want ....hehe
