We are having a retirement party for my dad next month and, lucky for me, I was put in charge of decorations. I've been playing around with a few different ideas but here is what I came up with so far.
Recipe for Banner-- Birthday Bash Cart- Pendants- 9in
StoryBook cart- letters 2in
Accent Essentials pointed circle 3in.
Stampin Up cardstock
The ribbons are from my stash
Martha Stewart Scoreboard
I also made a badge for him to wear.
Recipe for badge
NiftyFifties- letters .75in
Accent Essentials- circles 3.5 & 3 in, pointed circle 5.5in
Cuttlebug Robotz Embossing folder
I-rock
Stampin Up cardstock
The ribbons are from my stash
Martha Stewart Scoreboard
The Rossettes on both projects are 4 inches, here's a link to the how-to video I used to make the rosettes.
There's 3 Challenges I'm entering these projects in the first is My Sheri's Crafts- Party Favors #65, My Craft Spot - Emboss it! , and Paper Cutz challenge - Anything goes
