Ladybug Party
I helped make some things for one of my bff's daughters 1st birthday! Jenny also has an etsy shop and she has inspired me to build my shop and encourages me to add new things even though I'm swamped! :)
I made the ladybug cupcake wrappers, the thank you notes and the hershey kiss labels. I also did really cute age banner circles but I didn't get good pictures of them. :(

My lil guys CARS Party!
After WEEKS of preparations, many sleepless nights and a last minute change of venue due to weather - Brody's party happened!
It was so much fun. I find it rare when you can throw a big party, and actually enjoy it! But I did. Brody was a great little birthday boy and loved all his special touches that I made sure to include at his party. He was one happy little 3 year old!

Disney Pixar CARS Party
Well between a child with pneumonia, working at 'day job' like crazy and fullfilling etsy orders at night, I am exhausted! I got a chance to make some super cute CARS party stuff, which I got listed in my etsy shop. I made these for my friends son who turns 3 just a few weeks ahead of my little man, who will be 3 at the end of this month. THREE? Are you kidding me? I remember the morning I had him, he practically came running out of me and really hasn't sat still since! :)
So I was really happy to make this stuff and now I am making a set for my guy for his party. Can't wait! I love throwing parties!!!!!

Etsy Treasuries
I've been lucky enough to be included in some Etsy Treasuries lately. I love this feature on Etsy... something about all the color (I live for color) and the organization (I wish I lived for organization!).
Here's the ones that I've been so lucky to be included in:

today was....
Crazy, insane, out of control etc etc!
I had so many etsy requests, convos and orders! And I think tomorrow will be the same to finish up the orders that I'm still discussing with customers! SO EXCITING. But. I need to be careful because of a few things
(since I'm new to all this and have a lot of new viewers, I'll tell a little bit about myself)
1. I have two kids who (happily and deservingly) take up a lot of my time
2. I have a job - a 'real' job that i have to attend and work up to 30 hours a week at!
3. I can't seem to say no. well most of the time. so I need to be careful about all these orders coming in.
4. I'm saving up for a) new bada$$ lenses for my canon 20d (my 3rd baby) and a MAC laptop. I was told by my apple loving brother that I need to wait for the new MACS to come out this spring. so sigh. i wait.
5. I'm a MAC girl. I wasn't going to type this until I got to thinking about it after I wrote #4. I will always be a MAC girl. Never will I choose a PC over a MAC. EVER. Mark my words. You will learn someday, hopefully not the hard way.
6. Apparently I ramble. What is this post about? I don't even remember anymore.
7. I need to go to sleep. I want to wake up at 6 a.m. to make Valentine treats for all those that I love. :)
Good Night!
and if you are just stopping by for the first time- please become a FOLLOWER. Over to the right ---------------------------->
ya, right over there!
I promise my blog will get funnier, prettier and more awesom-er every day!

March Birthdays
So I've been kinda quiet over here, getting back to reality after an AMAZING family trip to Big Bear. My lil 4 year old went snowboarding for the first time - it was awesome!
Anyways, we have some big birthdays coming up over at my house. I've been busy planning, bargain shopping and scouring the internet for ideas!
My big almost 5 year old is having a Bowling Party and my Big almost 3 year old is having a 'ching' party - you know Lightening McQueen (ching) and Mater / Cars Movie Party.
The Bowling party will be super easy and hardly any decorations, so I will probably go all out on the invites... And the CARS Party will be an event, for sure. I just LOVE Cars myself so I am having fun prepping for it. :) Plus it'll be the babies first party by himself...well I don't count his 1st bday because he was sick and slept thru it. And last year he didn't know what was going on and shared the party. SO THIS year is his big boy party - all by himself!
Can't wait to show everyone!
Also coming up is St Patrick's Day. This is what I made last year for Patty's Day:

Ugh, what a weekend!
So let's rewind back to Friday night when I happily posted that I was making things for myself...
About 4 hours later I got hit with Food Poisioning (again! I'm VERY prone to it, I get it ALL the time)
The whole weekend was then a bust. BUT, I would not let the darn FP ruin my plans for making something for myself all together! So as I sat lethargic and pale in bed, I finished these two items:
(Funny enough, they are already sold to my friend who begged me for Valentine's Decorations for her mantle. So I'm already making more to sell on etsy (already listed) and another set for my mantle)

It's been a long time...
Since I have really taken the time and made something for myself. I mean sure, my cute Valentine Countdown is on my mantle ready for the 1st... but truly made something for me to enjoy.. and not sell.
So I am hard at work making something cute for my mantle. So excited!
I'll post pics when it's all done, and of course before I'm sure I decide to list in my etsy shop! :)

Superhero Party!
So last year when my boys had their Batman party, I thought I had some cute decorations. Oh man, I should have had it this year - I have made some adorable stuff since then. Like these items I just did for a customer on Etsy!
And next up, I'm working on an Alice in Wonderland Party for a set of twins' Sweet 16. The invite is ADORABLE and I'm working on the cupcake toppers next! I'll share soon.
And fast forward a couple months (which will fly by and feel like just a few days!) I've got my boys' parties again. Yes partieS. I'm really succeptable to cute faces and adorable 4 year convincing voices to throw 2 parties, although their bdays are only 5 days apart. sigh.
So the 'big boy' 5 year old will have a bowling party and his equally adorable brother will have a 3 year old CARS party! (Secretly, I'm so excited to double the creative factor and decorate/design for 2 parties!)

Few things keeping me busy...
Making Goals: this year I'm doing Work goals, Family goals and Personal goals. Funny how the work ones are super easy, the family are tough, and the personal ones always seem to be forgotten in the craziness of each day.
Etsy Orders: So happy to have all these orders, but with sick kids, me having the flu, Christmas and working a lot- it's becoming a busy busy hobby!
Here's 2 orders I'm swimming in- but they will be ADORABLE!!!! Sesame Street Centerpiece Blocks with all the characters!
