The requirements that were asked for this invitation was to gather inspiration from the pink Pinterest board made for the shower. I love when clients kinda know what they want, but don't have any exact specifications. It makes it easier for me!

I had a hard time figuring out what to call this idea, but I'm sure you get the gist of it: I'm trying to show you how to make your own gift card pocket out of a store bought card that wasn't meant to have a gift card in it. Because those types of cards seems to cost more than regular cards and I always just go for $1 cards anyways... So here's a quick, money saving trick to make your own card to hold a gift card!

And it seriously was quick. I'm talking maybe 5 minutes of your time - 10 minutes tops if you're having issues with your sewing machine...

Tools you will need:

scissors/paper cutter

cardstock paper

thread

sewing machine

card

gift card

pencil (optional)

1. Cut your cardstock into a pocket that will fit your gift card. I found that 4.25"x2.25" was a good size. It gave plenty of room to sew with.

2. Sew your pocket onto the card. Make sure to backstitch on the top seams.

3. Trim your thread and it's done!

This year marks our third Teddy Bear Picnic! If you haven't heard of it before, I don't blame you. It seems as if everyday there is some type of funky national holiday to celebrate something, which can bring more fun to everyday life!

I read an article about what makes a happy family, and one of the items on there was to celebrate the little things, like Pie Day or National Chocolate Chip Day. I know not every mom has time for that sort of thing, which is reasonable, your kids will turn out fine, but for those who want to, this is an idea to make another day of summer something special.

If you're doing it with just your kids, great! If you want to make it a party with some friends, here are some free invitations you can print out to announce your special party! You can ask them to bring their favorite stuffed animal and a sack lunch or a treat to share. Either way works out great.

Have fun!

My cute sister-in-law is getting married! I told her I would love to design her wedding invitations for her as part of our gift to her and that I know how to do it for super cheap.

Bam! Hired! And here is the end result.

Once upon a time, I thought I did my own wedding invitations cheaply, but holy cow, I definitely did good for her! 600 invitations for....... $150! Did you take a double take on that?? Yeah, one-five-zero! And they were printed front and back. (Not counting envelopes or tax.)

Do you want to know the secret??

We decided to do them sized 4x6 (so a little smaller than usual) and printed all in black/white. That cuts down on the cost of paper and color ink. I also had them printed at a local print lab, instead of an actual invitation company. That way you're only paying per copy instead of per invitation. That's where the chunk of cost comes from!

Her colors are: fuchsia, black, white, and grey, so I thought a fun way to bring color to the black and white invitations would be by getting fuchsia envelopes. It pops so much and it was so fun getting a bright colored envelope in the mail!

My oldest niece is growing up! And wanted to have a grown-up party. I loved how she picked to do a murder mystery party. I still have never participated in one of those so I was a little jealous because they always look so fun!

My sister and I do tradesies - she takes my family pictures and I do random stuff she wants. This year I told her I can design party stuff for her kids and my niece gladly took up the offer. This was a really fun project to do and it was fun finding out who-dun-it as I went along!

I was thinking it would've been fun to decorate it all florally, like it was a garden party because the lady who died was very rich and involved. So I asked my niece if she would rather have it be like a garden party or mafia-like, and she chose mafia. (*Insert laugh-crying emoji here!*) Which is why I have the Bodoni-like font and red and black colors. Classy gangta!

Elements I designed for this party were: Invitation, character descriptions, character sheets, name place cards, candy wrappers, and invitation envelope stickers. (Note: I did not make up the murder mystery. My sister found a free packet and I copied the information, but designed it.)
