GROWN UP PARTY - DECORATE TO CELEBRATE





Hello everyone! I am sooooo excited, Rhonda and Amy over at http://decoratetocelebrate.blogspot.com/ (we have a link to their blog on our sidebar) emailed me and asked me to a guest designer for the new challenge they have posted for today. The challenge is a decoration for a grown up party! I was so honored when they asked me, this is my first guest desginer spot!! Of course I am having trouble with blogger (shocking I know). So I could only upload one picture. I will try to get more pictures up later. Please head on over and check out their blog and join in on the fun. The challenge runs to July 12th. Always great inspiration over there.




I decided to make this centerpiece that could also be used for the cards the guest of honor receives. I used the following:


Happy Hauntings - pg 65 for the tombstone cut at 4"


Alphabet Cartridge that came with the E2 - for Over The Hill, cut @ .75"


Sports Mania - Border Flags, pg 79, cut @ 4"


A Child's Year - Happy Birthday, pg 71, cut @ 2"


Blue and Red Vinyl.
