Creative Banners & Cupcake Toppers

Well we are now in full swing of the 1st Birthday party planning...

my spare bedroom looks like a party store exploded.

No party is complete without some kind of Birthday Banner...

I had thought about doing a 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMMALINE

or maybe 

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY

until I found this.

This lovely Ladybug first year photo banner caught my eye

I love the idea of showcasing 1 photo from each month 

and what a fun way of doing so. Especially since we all know 

I take at least one every day!!!!

I had the pleasure of working with Sarah {owner} of Creative Banners & Cupcake Toppers, 

she was so sweet. She got the banner right out to me.. and included a little 

treat for YOU {my super fun readers} I will tell you 

more about that soon!

They arrived in these adorable bags with little bows on them!
If you haven't noticed I have a thing for packaging.

Each and every month looked great, the cut outs were very clean
everything was lined up really well, and the lady bugs
were just as cute in person!

I cannot wait to attach photos to these, and show them off in a unique way.

Check out Sarah's very fun Etsy Shop

Here is a little bit more about Sarah & Her Shop

"My shop is full of many different things, from door signs, cupcake toppers, 1st birthday high chair banners, themed Happy Birthday Banners, baby shower banners, teacher appreciation banners, graduation banners and much more! I add new items to my shop weekly! And I love custom orders, so if you don't see what you need, send me a message through ETSY and I will work with you to create what you have in mind. Also, I share coupons and special sales on my facebook, twitter and blog. 

I'm addicted to paper, I love the colors and textures. I've been scrapbooking & making cards for over 10 years. 

I've always loved to add my creative stamp on celebrations. Most recently I made centerpieces and tags for a co-workers office baby shower and people told me that I was in the wrong line of work and that I have such a talent within paper crafting. And so here we are, my Etsy site went live in March 2011, and already I've made and sold over 33 banners & cupcake toppers for different parties across the country and internationally! (2 order were from customers in Australia) 

My love for crafting and creating has spread to my 9 year old. She LOVES to make things for people, especially her teachers. Her new favorite thing to make is pinwheels, she wants me to add her collection to my site, she thinks they would make great cupcake toppers!"

Sarah is sure to have what your looking for, or could design it if its not already in her shop.. to make your next event extra special! 

She has even put together a discount code to save you 10% on your order just enter "10OFF" at checkout
