What I do during nap and bed time…

July 9, 2012

Nap and Bed time are ‘Go-Time’ for a stay home working mama!
My most recent projects have been felt orders and printables..
My Etsy Shops Pretty Paperie Printables and Charming Felt keep me busy and I’m thankful for being able to stay at home but bring in money for our family.
These felt creations are loved little pieces! The perfectionist in me wants them to be just right.
Some of you have messaged me about interest in buying for Christmas Presents..
Due date is November 24th..(give or take 4 days) So my only suggestion is to order sooner than later..Because Charming Felt will only be open for a limited time.
I have some other big projects in the works.. but I’ll have it open for orders when I can!

Felt Board Cupcakes..coming right up! ;)
A Recent Client asked me to create
Noah’s Ark Birthday Party Printables for her daughter.
I love the theme..so was super excited to make
up a fun invite and some party details for her!
Last night I needed a felt/printable order break..so I created the birthday invite for my girls!
I’m sooo excited about the theme and how the invite came together.
We are doing a Vintage Circus Dress-Up party!
It’s a mix of a bunch of things they love.
I knew I wanted to do a vintage circus theme because I’m not a real fan of the color red..
And I wanted to make it different in that the kids don’t just come to the circus..they join it!
Lots of fun DIY Projects already going through my head!
I am in the works of tracking down high school kids
we know to be the clown..ballerina/tight rope walker.. strong man..etc..
I can’t wait. :)
I admit to my obsession with yellow and white stripes..
What do you think!? I’m sure I’ll edit the invite 5 more times before I finally print and send out. :)
Can’t wait to share more of the printables and details for the party.
It’s at the end of August. Trying to think ahead so I can gather supplies for the DIY Projects.
Going to try and make this my cheapest party yet!..using free or bargain finds..garage sale items..lots of diy projects etc.. I’ll keep you posted on how it comes together!
Girls are napping….back to felt and printable orders!
Hope you are having a great monday.

    Love the invite!! I just got home from Joanne Fabrics… not sure if you guys have them, but they had tons of their “summer” craft sets on 50-70% clearance. I stocked up for our late August birthday party.

    Question – What type of computer program do you use when designing your invites and such? I love how they turn out!
