Roooaarr....Dinosaur Party

If you follow me on facebook, you saw that I posted a little sneak peek of a dino party that a good friend and I put together for her daughter's 3rd birthday. Her little girl is TOTALLY into dinosaurs right now and it was the perfect thing! My friend and I always love to work together on the kids parties and normally plan and go shopping together etc. This time, she had been putting in a lot of hours at work and on the day that we were supposed to go shopping (the day before the party) or at least get together, she calls me and tells me that she is going back in to work after she had already been there that morning! I was like "WHAT"??

But she had to get some rest right? So she decided to go the morning of the party! We stayed on the phone texting and sending pictures to make sure that we got the right stuff that would work. She called when she got back to her house and that's when I went over to help her get things together. Low and behold, we pulled it off!!!

Here are the photos!

 Here was the invite that we designed to invite all the guests to the roaring party!

You could tell that they were having loads of fun!

{Finally} Constance's 5th Lalaloopsy Birthday Party

Last year my daughter was OBSESSED with the Lalaloopsy dolls. Actually ever since they first came out. When they first came out, I couldn't understand what was so cool about them. Here were these dolls with extremely tiny legs and a huge hard plastic head and hard plastic hair. And they didn't do anything! Little by little I realized their little stories and cute names and then I fell in love with them too. Well not like my daughter did, but I thought they were pretty cute and LOVED the different catchy little names.

It was only fitting to give Constance a Lalaloopsy birthday party right??

Here is the invite that I designed.

 The Birthday Girl!

I had my good friend make this shirt for her and found the skirt on the clearance section at Kmart. Shoes are from the converse outlet and I made the headband.

 

These were favor tag labels that went on mini gable boxes.

I made each child a coloring book.

Found these converse sneakers to go along with the colors that we were using. The inside was the bright green color. I looks yellow in the picture.

Printing of all the party stationery

I had gotten this HUGE piece of cardboard from my previous job and drew this tree from the movies in lalaloopsy land. Then I painted it.

Party prep

Frames for the girls to decorate with buttons.

Number 5 for the front door.

Cute matching headband that I made to coordinate with everything.

Time flies by so fast! Here are a few photos through out the past years

Here at the party the girls were at work coloring in their coloring books!

Then we had story time with a lalaloopsy book.

Had the cake done at Publix. Told them that I wanted little buttons all over the cake and gave them fabric swatches of the colors.

Here they are at work making cute little button frames for their pictures that they will take individually by the lalaloopsy land tree.

Cute packaging for lolipops

I had a friend make super cute chunky necklaces for all the little girls when it was time to open presents. Having a little gift for your party guests helps with making them feel special when the birthday girl is opening her presents. They also sit pretty still too.

After the party was over!

This year's party theme will be BARBIE and we are excited!
