I hope you had a “ball” on New Years Eve! I had to scale down my original New Years Eve plan, since we all got sick between Christmas and New Years, and our party ended up being a rather intimate family gathering. Still, I had to pull out a few of the stops for my […]

This election year I am voting for… FUN! (Ha! I bet you thought I was going to get all political on you!) It isn’t going to happen this year, as we are all a little partied out, but I have always thought it would be cool to have an election night party. If you are […]

So I didn’t win this giveaway. 🙁 But Linda at Restyled Home is hosting another giveaway for this book by Matthew Mead! Doesn’t it look fantastic? The man himself! I was going to do something cute like say, “Mr. Mead’s Insanity” but from what I can tell, he isn’t so insane. While visually stunning, most […]
Bat-iful party invitations
October 3, 2008 by 18 Comments
It must be late, because I can’t come up with a very good play-on-words for the title of this post. These invitations were my other project last year while awaiting Tessa.
