Calling All Super Heroes

My son has been planning this super hero party with me for a few weeks now for his 5th birthday. Everything he and his brother talk about is pretty much all Batman and villains and "Hey look! I can lift this chair with one arm!" So when I took Isaak over to my sister's house to jump on her trampoline for some action hero photo ops, he didn't have much trouble getting into character. It was pretty time consuming going through all the images and choosing my favorite for this image. Then I transformed it into what I thought looked like comic book pop art using Photoshop. I was so pleased with the way it turned out that I took the same image and blew it up into a 20x30 poster for his room. You can see the poster and other photos from the party here.

Save the Date

So, she said she was planning on just sending a Save the Date text, or email, out to everyone  since the wedding was only 3 weeks away. The least I could do was create a little something to send via cell. phone, or the world wide web, that went along with the electronic data messaging theme. I actually saw this idea on a cookie and decided it was perfect and tried to create something similar. I suppose some other generations may not understand the whole "status update," but my 83 year old grandma is not one of them. We are totally Facebook friends!

This is the Thank You card I gave to Eden's Mad Tea Party guests. I took the picture to the right and edited the #1 onto the cup then simply wrote cheers on the inside. It's not rocket science, but thanks to my obliging subject it turned out pretty cute accompanying a place setting from the party filled with sugar cubes.

A Very, Merry Un-Birthday Party

This invite was for my baby girl's first birthday party. I'm not exactly sure how long I've been waiting to do an Alice in Wonderland themed party, but I do know it's been long before my Edie ever existed.

More party pictures and details on my family blog coming soon!
