Wedding Cake Pops "I Do" Tags

For my most recent adventure, I made these "I do" cake pop tags for a friend's wedding.  They are very into their perspective football teams, the husband a NY Giants Fan and the wife a Clemson Fan.  I think these fit the occasion perfectly with the their team colors.

This is such an easy project that could be used for any celebration; birthday, anniversary, wedding, get well or thank you. Really your options are endless. The cake pop tags were made with simple punches (2" Scallop and the "I do" from the Cricut Sweethearts cartridge.

My other friend is the amazing baker and she made the cake pops for the wedding and took these wonderful pictures for me.  Thanks Diana!

Happy 50th Anniversary - Part Two

We had a blast at my parent's 50th Anniversary Party!  As I mentioned in my earlier post, I made most of the decorations.  Her are some tissue pom poms that I made for the entry foyer.  I just followed the directions from Martha Stewart Crafts .  It was a pretty simple project that created great feature as people came in.




















I used a smaller one along with some daisies (cut with the Cricut) that hung from the dinning room chandelier.  This is where we had the cake displayed.

Next, I made these flowers for vases all around the house.  I also used them as spacer in the Happy Anniversary banner I made.  I am sure I will be recycling them for future projects.

Lastly, I made mom and dad thank-you notes to thank all our friends and family that came to celebrate with us.

Have a great weekend,

Happy 50th Anniversary - Part One

Well things are a bit hectic around here, we are preparing for my parent's 50th Anniversary Celebration this weekend.  This is such a milestone that my sister and I wanted to have a celebration with family and friends.  I have been busy making invitations, thank- you notes and decorations for the occasion.  My parent's colors for the wedding were periwinkle blue and there flowers were daisies.  I incorporated this into the anniversary theme.

The first thing I wanted to share with you is the invitation to the party.  It is a pretty simplistic card using craft brown, white, yellow and periwinkle blue card stocks.  I also used my Cricut to cut the two layers for daisy flower.  Of course, the picture is from their wedding day.  It is so hard to imagine my parents this young and makes me think if my boys are going to feel the same way about Matt and I someday?

I will post pictures from the festivities early in the week.  I hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday weekend!
